Transmittance and reflectance studies have been made in the 0.83–25 μ range on GeTe films to obtain and compare the optical properties of amorphous and crystalline structures. The refractive index of crystalline GeTe films (typical value 5.5 at 1.5 μ) shows free carrier dispersion yielding optical dielectric constant=…
Summary Bivalves lay down two forms of calcium carbonate in their shells, aragonite and calcite. Shells may be wholly aragonitic, or may contain both aragonite and calcite, in separate monomineralic layers. Shells are built up of several layers of distinct aggregations of calcium carbonate crystals. These aggregations…

The Néel theory of magnetization relaxation has been systematically and quantitatively tested for six samples containing synthetic and natural single domain grains. The results of a wide range of experiments involving time, temperature, and direct and alternating magnetic fields were compared with theoretical results…
The nucleation of a shear dislocation loop from the interface of a misfitting spherical particle in a deformable matrix is considered. The equilibrium shapes and positions of the nucleated dislocation have been calculated. There are two critical levels of misfit. The lower critical level, which is dependent on the par…
Abstract The thermal decomposition of poly(vinyl alcohol) is known to occur in two stages. In a study of first‐stage decomposition, this polymer was pyrolyzed in vacuum at 240°C for 4 hr and the products were determined by using gas chromatography. The main products were water, aldehydes having the general formula and…
Thermal protection rating systems for fabrics, based on pain and blister effects in human skin, are considered in terms of: (1) precise evaluations applicable to any known temperature-time pattern, and (2) simple laboratory procedures to provide a universally useful standard rating system. The first system which is mo…
The theory of single and multiple small-angle scattering of fibres with a two-phase system of densities is revised. Luzzati's fundamental treatment of multiple scattering has been applied to systems with cylindrical symmetry. It is shown that the results of measurements with an `infinite' slit parallel to the fibre ax…
Summary 1. A review is given of the optical and architectural analogies between cholesteric liquid crystals and certain insect cuticles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae). Earlier observations on the optical properties (reflexion of circularly polarized light and high form optical rotation) are confirmed and extended. Both ch…
In 1903 F. Heusler reported that it was possible to make ferromagnetic alloys from non-ferromagnetic constituents copper-manganese bronze and group B elements such as aluminium and tin. Further investigations showed that the magnetic properties of these alloys are related to their chemical, L21, structure, and to the…
It is shown by way of model orientation patterns how conduction in nematic liquid crystals may cause a torque per unit volume that more than offsets the dielectric torque felt in the insulating state. This conduction-induced torque arises from an anisotropy of the conductivity or of the dielectric constant. It is part…
The dielectric constants, electrical conductivity, specific heat, and pyroelectric coefficients of ferro-electric Sr1−xBaxNb2O6 (SBN) are investigated as a function of temperature in the range 10°–500°K, and as a function of the Sr/Ba composition of the material. A simple technique for measuring absolute pyroelectric…
Recent attempts have been made to assess the relative merits of the free volume and entropy theories of viscous flow in glass-forming liquids by accurate measurement of viscosity over wide temperature ranges, and subsequent comparison with the equations derived from these theories. In the author's view, this effort is…
By using a thin NiO single-crystal sample, it has been possible to observe electroreflectance spectra between 3.0 and 5.0 eV. The results of this study and a recent photoconductivity investigation suggest that an energy-band description which includes the $3d$ electrons is necessary for a full description of NiO inter…
Results of electron-proton inelastic scattering at 6\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} and 10\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} are discussed, and values of the structure function ${W}_{2}$ are estimated. If the interaction is dominated by transverse virtual photons, $\ensuremath{\nu}{W}_{2}$ can be expressed as a f…
Abstract Polysulphone, prepared from 2.2‐bis(4‐hydroxyphenyl)propane and 4.4′‐dichlorodiphenyl sulphone, degrades when heated at 380°C i. vac. The mol. wt. increases with time of heating until after about 3 hrs gelation occurs. In addition to crosslinking scission processes have been shown to be important. Degradation…
Abstract The influence of different annealing treatments on the crystalline order of isotactic paracrystalline polypropylene is described. The result support an intramolecular transformation mechanism based on a rewinding of hellcal segments of different lengths having opposite senses of spiralization. Such a mechanis…
The rate of vaporization of graphite filaments has been measured from 2500 to 3400°K in vacuum and in He by pulse heating techniques. At 3400°K, the rate of vaporization was sufficiently high that a direct determination of the heat of vaporization could be obtained. The experimental results have been correlated with t…
Electrolysis measurements on crystals of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (ADP) have confirmed the results of Murphy, showing that protons are mobile in the solid. The ac conductance of ADP crystals along the c axis over the temperature range 40–150°C has been shown to fit the expression σ = 1.26 × 102 × exp[− (11.08 ± 0…
G[ Fe (III)] is measured in pulse-irradiated O2-saturated solutions of 20 to 160 μMFe(II), at the pH's 0.46, 1.51, and 2.74 H2SO4 and HClO4 and with dose rates between 1 and 8 krad/1 μsec pulse. Based on homogeneous kinetics, the results are interpreted by a system of 18 reactions. The formation of the hydrogen sesqui…
