Laser action from a terbium beta-ketoenolate at room temperature

Laser activity is achieved in a solution of terbium tris at room temperature in a liquid solvent of acetonitrile or p-dioxane. After precipitation, the microcrystals of hydrated tris chelate are filtered, washed in distilled water, and dried. They show no signs of deterioration after storage.

Superconductivity in beta-tungsten films.

Superconductivity of electron beam evaporated tungsten films by X ray and electron diffraction techniques, discussing temperature dependence of energy gap

Transformation temperatures of martensite in beta phase nickel aluminide

Resistivity and thermal arrest measurements determined that the compositional dependence of Ms (martensite state) temperatures for NiAl martensite was linear between 60 and 69 atomic percent nickel, with Ms = 124 Ni - 7410 K. Resistivity and surface relief experiments indicated the presence of thermoelastic martensite for selected alloys. Some aspects of the transformation were studied by hot stage microscopy and related to the behavior observed for alloys exhibiting the shape-memory effect.

Bremsstrahlung from cylindrical beta sources.

Refined experimental measurements of the bremsstrahlung number and energy fluxes from thick cylindrical sources of several nuclides are presented, dose rates calculated from experimental energy fluxes are compared with theoretical results based on Wyard's thick-target approximation, and experiments are correlated with both thick- and thin-target bremsstrahlung theory to obtain accurate values of bremsstrahlung yields. The data presented should prove useful for the design of radioisotope power supplies, particularly those used in spacecraft and in biological applications.

Analyses of solar viewing time, beta angle, and doppler shift for solar observations from the space shuttle

Studies of solar physics phenomena are aided by the ability to observe the sun from earth orbit without periodic occultation. Charts are presented for the selection of suitable orbits about the earth at which a spacecraft is continuously illuminated through a period of a few days. Selection of the orbits considers the reduction of Doppler shift and wavefront attenuation due to relative orbital velocity and residual earth atmosphere.
