"The effect of beam loading upon the design and performance of the accelerator is examined. Results are given in dimensionless form so that the various equations and grams can be used at any operating frequency. The constant gradient accelerator is somewhat less subject to beam loading than the uniform accelerator structure. For an accelerator of given filling time and 20% more."

Monthly magazine discussing natural resources, parks, hunting and fishing, and other information related to the outdoors in Texas.

Results of an initial examination of non-fuel-bearing materials for the Marine Gas Cooled Reactor are presented. Areas given specific attention include structural and cladding materials and graphite moderator. Other areas not included because of classification include zirconium hydride moderator and control materials. In each report section, available pertinent information is summarized and a plan for future work is given.

This is a bibliography referencing documents based on fused lithium salts within the years 1950-57.

Abstract: "Neutron nonelastic cross sections measured at different detector biases have been used to determine the cross sections for inelastically scattering 14 Mev neutrons into 9- to 14-Mev energy range. The cross section for producing these high energy neutrons, which may be attributed to direct interaction processes, is roughly 10% of the nonelastic cross section, for all elements. A comparison is made with data of Coon and co workers, who measured angular distributions for the same high-energy inelastically scattered-neutron group."

Abstract: "Neutron nonelastic cross sections have been measured for 23 elements at 14 Mev, and for a selected set of these elements over the energy ranges 7 to 14 Mev and 21 to 29 Mev. Conventional sphere transmission techniques were used for the measurements. A comparison with optical model calculations of Bjorklund and Fernbach shows excellent agreement."

"This bibliography is a list of references pertaining to factors affecting the motion of the artificial earth satellite. References are foreign and domestic literature."

Abstract: "An absolute measurement of the 14.1-Mev (n, 2n) cross sections of Li-6 and Li-7 has been made using the large scintillator technique, resulting in cross sections in barns of 0.070 +/- 0.006 and 0.056 +/- 0.005 for Li-6 and Li-7, respectively."

A report about the start of preliminary measurements of the thermal conductivity of clad uranium and Zircaloy 2 prior to irradiation.

The following report covers investigations on sedimentary rocks of Middle Pennsylvanian age in northeastern Oklahoma, southeastern Kansas, and western Missouri. Distribution of uranium and other trace elements in these rocks was studied during 1955 and 1956.

A report about the U. S. Geological Survey's program about uranium investigations and geologic mapping in the Monument Valley area, Arizona. A resource appraisal of the area was an inherent part of the program, and is detailed in this report.

The following report covers studies and investigations of uranium deposits in the Black Hills of South Dakota and Wyoming. The ore minerals include carnotite, tyuyamunite, metatyuyamunite, corvusite, rauvite, uraninite, and coffinite, as well as minor amounts of other uranium and vanadium minerals.

From abstract: Results of a reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Eau Claire Quadrangle, Wisconsin; Minnesota are reported. Field and laboratory data are presented for 565 groundwater samples, 680 stream sediment samples, and 667 stream water samples. Statistical and areal distributions of uranium and other possible uranium-related variables are displayed. A generalized geologic map of the survey area is provided and pertinent geologic factors which may be of significance in evaluating the potential for uranium mineralization are briefly discussed.
