A commentary on thallium radiochemistry in conjunction with OPEX23

Thallium radiochemistry was developed as a routine analytical capability at Los Alamos, dating from some of its earliest history after WWII. The first post-war compilation of radiochemical procedures published by the Radiochemistry Group J-11 is dated February 1953 as Los Alamos report LA-1566. The thallium radiochemistry procedure was authored by René J. Prestwood, and the details of the method as documented in 1953 are nearly identical to the thallium procedure contained in the most recent Collected Radiochemical and Geochemical Procedures (Fifth Edition) contained in Los Alamos report LA-1721 issued May 1990. René was a talented and well-respected member of the Radiochemistry Group. He first came to the lab in 1943 as an undergraduate student from UC Berkeley to join the Manhattan Project. After the war, René earned his PhD in Nuclear Chemistry with Art Wahl at Washington University in St. Louis. He then returned to Los Alamos as a technical staff member and retired in 1984. René passed away at the age of 92 on December 21, 2012.

Lunar thermal measurements in conjunction with Project Apollo

Problems related to the feasibility of measuring lunar heat flow at the lunar surface are analyzed, and the findings which required that a drill be developed for lunar use are discussed. Numerical simulations were made of the in situ measurement of lunar thermal conductivity using a circular ring source of heat. The results of these simulations formed the basis for the criteria used in designing a subsurface thermal probe for ALSEP. Preliminary analyses are presented on the data obtained from the Apollo 15 and 17 missions.

Active experiments in space in conjunction with Skylab

Two papers are presented which relate to the Skylab barium shaped charge experiments. The first describes the L=6.6 OOSIK barium plasma injection experiment and magnetic storm of March 7, 1972. Rocket payload, instrumentation, data reduction methods, geophysical environment at the time of the experiment, and results are given. The second paper presents the observation of an auroral Birkeland current which developed from the distortion of a barium plasma jet during the above experiment.

Measurement of a single tendon reflex in conjunction with a myogram - The second manned Skylab mission

A generalized hyperreflexia was observed in Skylab 2 crew members immediately postflight. Duration of the Achilles reflex was significantly shortened. Further shortening was observed on the fourth day after recovery. At the 16th and 29th postrecovery days a lengthening of the reflex was observed in two of the three crew members. The muscle potential intervals were shortened immediately postflight and remained shortened throughout the 29 day postflight evaluation period.

A preliminary study of the use of intercooling and reheat in conjunction with regeneration for aircraft turbine engines

The effect on fuel consumption of turbofans with intercooled, regenerative cycles and with intercooled, regenerative, reheat cycles was studied. The technology level for both engine and aircraft was that projected for 1985. The simulated mission was a 5556 km flight carrying 200 passengers at Mach 0.8 at 11582 min. Results indicate that these relatively complex cycles offer little, if any, fuel savings potential relative to a conventional turbofan cycle of comparable advanced technology. The intercooled, regenerative cycle yields about the same fuel economy as a conventional cycle at close to the same overall pressure ratio.
