The resonance in the reaction 58Ni(p,γ)59Cu at Ep = 3.546 MeV has been studied. Gammaray angular distribution studies have clarified the assignment of the resonance (Ex = 6903 keV) and the level at Ex = 3042 keV as Jπ = 9/2+. The resonance strength determination, (2J + 1) × ΓpΓγ/Γ = 6.2 ± 0.7 eV, implies an M1 analogue to antianalogue transition rate of 0.4 W.u. The data are compared with existing experimental results and with theoretical predictions.

The dipole radiation emitted by an atom excited by a unidirectional electron beam has a nonuniform angular distribution which is simply related to the percentage polarization P of the radiation emitted perpendicular to the beam. P was first calculated using the OppenheimerPenney (O.-P.) theory. In this theory the probability of excitation of an upper quantum state and the probability of subsequent emission of a polarized photon from such a state are considered independently. P is finally expressed in terms of the cross-sections QM for excitation of states of definite component of angular momentum along the direction of the electron beam. In general, P is dependent on detailed numerical calculations of QM j, but the selection rule A = 0 removes this dependence at threshold. In the O.-P. theory allowance may be made for fine structure and hyperfine structure, but the theory is ambiguous when the f.s. or h.f.s. separations are comparable with the line width. A theory is therefore developed which is based on the calculation of the probability of a polarized photon being emitted by the complete system of atom + electron. The ambiguity of the O.-P. theory is removed by integration over line profiles, but the expressions reduce to O.-P. expressions when the f.s. or h.f.s. separations are much smaller or much larger than the line width. The Lyot line of hydrogen is an intermediate case for which the line widths and the h.f.s. separations are comparable. Assuming the validity of the Born approximation, a simple expression is obtained which allows the QM to be calculated from the angular distribution of the scattered electrons. Theoretical predictions are compared with experimental results. For the Na£) lines the predicted polarization is small enough to escape experimental detection. Polarizations observed by - Skinner & Appleyard in 1927 for various Hg lines rise to maxima with decreasing electron energy, and then tend to values close to zero at threshold. These experimental results at low energies appear to be inexplicable in terms of the reactions considered, but if the polarization curve above the maximum is extrapolated to threshold, the theory and experiment are found to be in reasonable agreement. Further experimental work is thought to be desirable

Abstract In continuation of the work on interaction between shock waves and magnetic fields 1,2 the experiments reported here measured the atomic and electron densities in the interaction region by means of an interferometric and a spectroscopic method. The transient atomic density was also calculated using a one-dimensional theory based on the work of Johnson3 , but modified to give an improved physical model. The experimental results were compared with the theoretical predictions.

Abstract.This work measured $ \mathrm{d}\sigma/\mathrm{d}\Omega$dσ/dΩ for neutral kaon photoproduction reactions from threshold up to a c.m. energy of 1855MeV, focussing specifically on the $ \gamma p\rightarrow K^0\Sigma^+$γp→K0Σ+, $ \gamma n\rightarrow K^0\Lambda$γn→K0Λ, and $ \gamma n\rightarrow K^0 \Sigma^0$γn→K0Σ0 reactions. Our results for $ \gamma n\rightarrow K^0 \Sigma^0$γn→K0Σ0 are the first-ever measurements for that reaction. These data will provide insight into the properties of $ N^{\ast}$N* resonances and, in particular, will lead to an improved knowledge about those states that couple only weakly to the $ \pi N$πN channel. Integrated cross sections were extracted by fitting the differential cross sections for each reaction as a series of Legendre polynomials and our results are compared with prior experimental results and theoretical predictions.

Recirculation is an important factor in single needle dialysis and, if high, can compromise treatment efficiency. To provide information regarding recirculation characteristics of access devices used in single needle dialysis, we have developed a new technique to characterise recirculation and have used this to measure the recirculation of a Terumo 15G fistula needle and a VasCath SC2300 single lumen catheter. The experimentally obtained results agreed well with those established clinically (8.5 ± 2.4% and 18.4 ± 3.4%). The experimental results have also demonstrated a dependence on access type, pump speeds and fistula flow rate. A comparison of experimental data with theoretical predictions showed that the latter exceeded those measured with the largest contribution being due to the experimental fistula.

The control systems of accommodation and convergence in the human eye are theoretically examined, together with their interactions which represent accommodative convergence and convergence induced accommodation. A control model is proposed in order to help to understand the system, and it is used to make predictions concerning accommodation and convergence placed in conflict, monocular vision, fusional after-effects and the effect of age and drugs on accommodation and accommodative convergence. In each case the theoretical predictions are compared with established experimental results.
