It is proposed to study the direct production of electron pairs produced when a high energy proton interacts with the Coulomb field of a nucleus. This process occurs at fourth order in quantum electrodynamics. This phenomena, called trident production when the incident particle is an electron, is characterized by a single incident primary track and three emerging tracks. Accelerator experiments on direct pair production by protons have not been previously reported, due to the small cross-sections at energies less than 100 GeV. However, at an energy of 100 GeV the cross-section for the direct creation of electron pairs by protons in emulsion is about 10{sup -25}cm{sup 2}.

Untrimmed hybrid microcircuit networks require dimensional dontrol to maintain critical electrical parameters within the required tolert.- ances. Dimensional integrity can be maintained by parameter manipulation and control. Five processing parameters affect the dimensional stability of the pattern: the prebake time-temperature product, exposure energy, developing time and concentration, resist thickness uniformity, and etchant undercutting. By adjusting the relative dominance of those parameters and by. optimizing the value of each, the total dimensional deviation can be made relatively insensitive to normal process variations. Thus, process characterization and control methods which will maintain one-percent dimensional control on lines as narrow as 5.0 mils - (127 Km) can be established.

The purpose of this research was to provide the artificial heart design information necessary for the proper development of an implantable nuclear power supply for the artificial heart. A Kwan-Gett hemispherical artificial heant made of silicone rubber was attached to a mock circulation instrumented with pressure, volume and fiow transducers and measurements made of power input to the artificial heant at various locations, source of power losses and efficiencies of the artificial heart under a variety of pumping conditions, volumetric efficiency, pressure required to move the diaphragm of the artificial heat, required motion of the heant diaphragm and pumping characteristics of the antificial heant. The in vitro measurements have been verified by in vivo experiments in calves. The preliminary design of a pumping chamber for the nuclear powered heart has been completed. (auth)
