INVESTIGATION OF HEAT EXPANSION OF /cap alpha/-Sn, InSb, CdTe
1960-09-01

The coefficients of silicon and germanium linear expansion become negative below 120 and 48 deg K, respectively. Studies were made of the thermal expansion of alpha Sn which crystallizes into a diamond structure simmilar to that of silicon and germanium. The coefficient of alpha Sn linear expansion at temperatures of -130 to 25 deg C was approx equal 0.50 x 10/sup -5/ degree/sup - ...

In CDQ (Coke Dry Quenching) shaft, the vent-cap with complex structure is installed in the cone-shaped funnel under the cooling chamber. It acts to introduce cooling gas and support the descending coke in the chamber. The designing and installation of vent-cap aim to get relatively uniform gas distribution, to reduce the temperature ...

THE ABSOLUTE CROSS SECTIONS FOR THE Na$sup 23$(n,/cap alpha/) AND I$sup 1270$(n,*cap alpha) REACTIONS AT 14 Mev
1962-07-01

The absolute cross sections for the Na 3(n alpha )F/sup 20/ and (n, alpha )Sb/sup 124/ reactions are measured at 14 Mev neutron energy. The alpha particles produced in a Nal crystal were directiy counted by a pulse shape discrimination method. The neutron flux was measured with a standard proton recoil monitor. The cross sections values obtained are 147 plus or ...

Synopsis Oakmoss absolute, an extract of the lichen Evernia prunastri, is known to cause allergenic skin reactions due to the presence of certain aromatic aldehydes such as atranorin, chloratranorin, ethyl hematommate and ethyl chlorohematommate. In this paper it is shown that treatment of Oakmoss absolute with amino acids such as lysine and/or leucine, ...

We investigated the role of electrode cap use in the determination of the cortical motor threshold (MT), and the resulting changes in the recorded motor evoked potentials (MEPs). We also tested whether the induced changes in determined MT could be corrected via previously introduced correction method. Sixteen healthy subjects were studied. Navigated TMS was used for mapping ...
