RADIATION CREEP
Several theories of metal creep and radiation damage are studied, in order to determine whether creep rates under various conditions of irradiation can be predicted theoretically. It is found that if the creep is of the recovery type, and if the diffusion coefficient for radiationinduced vacancies is large enough, creep rates may be increased within a limited temperature range. Otherwise, radiation has no effect on creep rates. (T.F.H.)

Atmospheric Signals From Explosions and Their Interpretation
Results are reported from a series of experimental highexplosive shots under inversion conditions at the Nevada Test Site which were made in an attempt to refine blast prediction techniques. Applications of the data in determinations of the amount of energy which remains in the blast wave as it reaches acoustic level and in determinations of the magnitude of the reflection factor when the blast wave strikes the ground are discussed. Data on shock wave propagation are presented graphically. It is concluded that the blast phenomenology of high-altitude shots can be predicted by using modified Sach's scaling. With some extrapolation to the height-of-burst versus blast-yield curve, it should be possible to make order-of-magnitude predictions of blast effects from high-altitude shots up to heights of burst of 1,000,000 ft.

Sodium Graphite Reactor. Quarterly Progress Report, July-September 1954
Technology of the Sodium Graphite Reactor. Reactivity calculations were made to study the application of steadystate plutonium feedback techniques to the use of diffusion plant tails for reactor fuel feed material. The performance and design of a twin core SGR power plant are given. Thermal neutron flux distribution measurements are reported for a six-rod fuel cluster and for a hollow uranium rod. A power cost calculation was made for a 1000-Mw SGR Th-U/sup 233/ breeder reactor which starts up on Th--U/sup 235/ alloy. Calculations were made on neutron leakage through the SRE shield. Research on reactor fuel elements and reactor materials are described. Corrosion and irradiation damage data at 5 x 10/sup 7/ r dose (150 deg F) on toluene as the SRE shield coolant indicate that the radioinduced corrosion of Fe, Al, and Cu in the SRE shield should be negligible. Preliminary results are summarized for l-Mev electron ir radiation studies of terphenyls at 400 to 450 deg C. Sodium Reactor Experiment. Progress is reported for various portions of the SRE project: reactor design and evaluation, fuel elements, moderator, reflector, structure, reactor cooling and heat transfer, instrumentation and control, shielding, and reactor services.

EXTRATERRESTRIAL LIFE: SOME ORGANIC CONSTITUENTS OF METEORITES ANDTHEIR SIGNIFICANCE FOR POSSIBLE EXTRATERRESTRIAL BIOLOGICALEVOLUTION
In order to decide the value and type of information to be obtained from outer space with regard to its pertinence for the evolution of life, a brief review is presented of the current status of our thinking on the origin of life on earth. This points up the particular kinds of chemicals whose presence, or absence, on other astral bodies might be significant. Heretofore, the only data available are the result of telescopic spectroscopy. We report here information indicating the presence in meteorites of complex organic materials, some of them apparently uniquely pertinent to life processes.

An evaluation of the Weldon Spring Feed Preparation and Sampling Plant
A description of the new Weldon Spring Feed Preparation and Sampling Plant for uranium concentrates is given. Prior to the startup of this plant the auger to be later installed was used in an evaluation program to test reliability for representative sampling and uniformity both within drums and between drums of various concentrates. Results of this program were used as a reference for the sampling plant evaluation which involved successive auger and mechanical sampling of a series of lots of several concentrates, followed by moisture determinations, uranium assays, and statistical analyses of the data. From the final results conclusions are drawn concerning the suitability of the mechanical sampling system for the concentrates examined.

Evaluation of Oxidation-Resistant Ceramics for High-Temperature Reactor Elements
Abstract: "As a possible aid in the selection of ceramic materials for use in the fabrication of high-temperature reactor elements, the reported properties of 23 refractory oxidation-resistance ceramic compounds are tabulated. The thermal stresses and heat throughout capacities for nine of these compounds are estimated for conditions of steady heat flow and uniform heat generation in the temperature range of 1500 to 2500 F. The compounds studied have macroscopic thermal-neutron-absorption cross sections lower than 0.2 per centimeter. Data concerning the high-temperature stability of uranium compounds are tabulated for those with melting points above 2450 F."
