A major problem encountered in the Manhattan Project was the protection of workers against damage resulting from acute or chronic exposure to external radiation. The problem of how to detect evidence of damage following exposure to total body radiation led to this study. These studies were conducted between January, 1942 and November, 1945. Three groups of persons were employed in this study. The first group of eight individuals harboring incurable neoplasms which was not extensive enough to influence general health, these patients were treated with 400 KV x-radiation while sitting in a wooden chair, doses were 27, 60, and 120r. Three persons having generalized illnesses chronic in nature were given total body radiation using 200 KV X-rays in multiple exposures totaling 100, 300, and 500r. A third group of normal volunteers from personnel of the Metallurgical Laboratory were treated with 200 KV x-rays in three divided doses totaling 21 r. Changes in peripheral blood in the fourteen individuals is reported. In group 1 the most persistent abnormality noted was a diminution in the number of lymphocytes after completion of the treatment. In group 2 a depression in the lymphocytes was also the most marked single change. In group 3 no …

Memorandum presenting wind-tunnel tests to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of a 15-percent- and a 35-percent-chord plain trailing-edge flap on the NACA 0006 airfoil section. Simultaneous measurements of section lift, drag, and pitching moment were made over a range of Mach numbers, angles of attack, and flap deflections.

Report presenting the drag of a series of complete airplane-like configurations and their components at transonic velocities using the free-fall method. The configuration tested in this report has a 45 degree sweptback wing of aspect ratio 4.1 mounted forward of the maximum diameter of a 10-inch-diameter body of fineness ratio 12 equipped with stabilizing tail fins. Results are presented as curves showing the variation of drag coefficient with Mach number for the complete configuration and for each component.

Description of a velocity analyzer (with diagrams) is given. It is a device for measuring the velocities of charged particles which comprises pairs of spaced electrodes, a collector for charged particles, and means for propelling charged particles in a direction so as to pass between the pairs of electrodes. The pairs of electrodes and the collector are so arranged to permit passage of the charged particles between them to the collector plate. Means are provided for applying an alternating substantially square wave potential of known frequency to the pairs of electrodes so that adjacent pairs are opposite in phase and so that one half-cycle of the wave appears as zero potential between the pairs of electrodes.

"An investigation has been conducted to determine whether three-dimensional flows may be utilized in axial-flow fan and compressor rotors so that the spanwise load distribution may be varied to obtain high pressure rise. Two rotors, one with approximately uniform and one with solid-body downstream tangential-velocity distributions, were designed and tested at the design blade angle" (p. 1).

"By use of the methods of thin airfoil theory, which include effects of compressibility, relations are developed which permit the rapid determination of the pressure distribution over an unstaggered cascade of airfoils of a given profile, and the determination of the profile shape necessary to yield a given pressure distribution for small chord gap ratios. For incompressible flow the results of the theory are compared with available examples obtained by the more exact method of conformal transformation. Although the theory is developed for small chord/gap ratios, these comparisons show that it may be extended to chord/gap ratios of order unity, at least for low speed flows" (p. 1).
