Moon drops /a new viewpoint on the origin of tektites/ <slezy luny<

This article covers the hypothesis that tektites are minerals of lunar origin. Several tektite sites are described with emphasis given to the australites. It was found that the australites came across the melting point twice, and their age was established by uranium tracks are being about 700,000 years. Their contents of 10.2% nickel along with two combinations of schreibersite and troilite only found in extraterrestrial bodies do not exclude the fact that the origin of tektites might be located much further in space than the moon.

Use of steel and tantalum apparatus for molten Cd-Mg-Zn alloys

Steel and tantalum apparatus contains various ternary alloys of cadmium, zinc, and magnesium used in pyrochemical processes for the recovery of uranium-base reactor fuels. These materials exhibit good corrosion resistance at the high temperatures necessary for fuel separation in liquid metal-molten salt solvents.

Study of actinide chemistry in saturated potassium fluoride solution

Study concerning the chemistry of actinides in saturated KF solution included work with neptunium, uranium, and americium. Solubilities, absorption spectra, oxidation-reduction reactions, and solid compounds which can be produced in KF solution were examined. The information is used for preparation of various materials from salts of the actinides.

Study of fluoride corrosion of nickel alloys

Report contains the results of an investigation of the corrosion resistance of nickel and nickel alloys exposed to fluorine, uranium hexafluoride, and volatile fission product fluorides at high temperatures. Survey of the unclassified literature on the subject is included.
