Polytetrafluoroethylene tubing partially collapsed during assembly protects the shields from thermal expansion stress in isothermal and magnetic canisters. Thermal insulation between the shields is made from epoxy foam cast in position and cured under high temperature. Stacked mounting array supports the maser's hexapole magnet and hydrogen atom source.

Commutator device combines several individual signal-input lines into single output line. Its desirable characteristics are - low input impedances, high output impedance, very high forward-to-reverse transmission ratios, and minimal gating spike coupling to either the inputs or the output.

Mechanism consists of thermal actuator, which expands when flow is desired, forcing cutter poppet through a diaphragm seal. Design concept is useful in systems that are stored for long periods of time before operation.
Water sample is passed through a column containing macroreticular resin, which absorbs only nonionic organic compounds. These compounds are selectively separated using aqueous eluents of varying pH, or completely exuded with small amount of an organic eluent.
System allows measurement of damping and stiffness with the desired uncoupling of measurement fixture and permits testing of large structures without need for costly foundation or base. System is designed to permit horizontal loading to be conveniently superimposed on vibratory loads.
Balloon-measured electric-field data for five-hour periods during each of 19 substorms near local midnight have been analyzed and averaged. Results are applied to an improved model of the magnetospheric substorm in which the origin of the electric fields, the flow of cold plasma and magnetic-field lines, and many observed particle phenomena are more naturally explained.
A dc-to-dc regulated-converter circuit employing duty-cycle control with variable on and variable off time has been presented. A unique feature of this converter is the method by which the bistable-comparator output controls the duty cycle of the power switching transistor through the action of the encoder. The utilization of minor-loop flux excursions of a saturable-core transformer in the encoder makes it feasible to extend the converter switching frequency considerably higher than would normally be possible. With this converter circuit, high and very-high frequency converter operations were explored.
