The overall reactions of traces of heavy water, deuterium and carbon dioxide added to some fuel-rich hydrogen + nitrogen + oxygen flames have been examined both experimentally and theoretically. The mechanism and most of the controlling rate constants for the flames both without and with the additives are now sufficiently firmly established for computation of the detailed flame profiles to be possible in all cases. By comparison of the computed profiles with experiment it is possible to deduce information about the reactions: OH + H 2 ⇌ H 2 O + H, (i) OH + HD ⇌ HOD + H, (iD a ) OH + CO ⇌ CO 2 + H. (xxi) At 1050 K the ratios k 1 / k 1D a = 2.8 and k 1 / k 21 = 11.3 were found, both with an accuracy of ± 15%. Assuming A 1 / A 1D a = 2.4 (the ratio of collision frequencies) led to a mean k 1 / k 1D a = 2.4 exp (+ 155/ T ); while combination of the observed ratio k 1 / k 21 with results of other investigators led to k 1 / k 21 = (120 ± 15)exp{ — (2400 ± 50)/ T }. It was also possible to relate the absolute rate constants for the above reactions fairly precisely with the hydrogen atom recombination rate constant k 15 , so that for a known value of the latter, the former could be derived with an accuracy of ± 10 to 15%. For k 15 = 4.5 x 10 15 for all molecules, the values found for the three rate constants were k 1 = (2.7 ± 0.4) x 10 12 , k 1D a = (9.6 ± 0.5 ) x 10 11 and k 21 = (2.4 ± 0.12) x 10 11 , all at 1050 K. Comparison of k 1 and k 21 with results of other investigators at comparable temperatures suggested that both may be slightly high. Lack of knowledge of the precise form of the relation between Ig k ; and 1/ T makes a closer evaluation difficult; but on the basis of a linear relation between 300 K and the flame temperature, a reduction of both k 1 and k 21 by about 10% would improve the agreement with much other work. By comparison with previous results showing the effect of variation of k 15 on the H atom concentration profile (Dixon-Lewis 1970), this would suggest an optimum value of k 15 of around 3.0 x 10 15 cm 6 mol -2 s -1 in the flame reaction zone. Combination of the observed values of k 1 and k 21 at 1050 K with those of other investigators led to the expressions lg k 1 = 13.57 ± 0.15 — (2770 ± 100)/2.303 T , lg k 21 = 11.49 ± 0.15 — (370 ± 100)/2.303 T .

While much is known regarding the effect of lasers on the retina, little study has been done on the effect of lasers on cornea, because of the limitation of the size of the material. Using a combination of electron microscope and several newly developed cytochemical methods, the effect of laser can now be studied on eye for the purpose of correlating functional and morphological damage. The present paper illustrates such study with CO2 laser on Rhesus monkey.

The advent of the scanning electron microscope (SCEM) has renewed interest in preparing specimens by avoiding the forces of surface tension. The present method of freeze drying by Boyde and Barger (1969) and Small and Marszalek (1969) does prevent surface tension but ice crystal formation and time required for pumping out the specimen to dryness has discouraged us. We believe an attractive alternative to freeze drying is the critical point method originated by Anderson (1951; for electron microscopy. He avoided surface tension effects during drying by first exchanging the specimen water with alcohol, amy L acetate and then with carbon dioxide. He then selected a specific temperature (36.5°C) and pressure (72 Atm.) at which carbon dioxide would pass from the liquid to the gaseous phase without the effect of surface tension This combination of temperature and, pressure is known as the "critical point" of the Liquid.
