Abstract:: A thermal beam of lithium atoms excited to high Rydberg states by pulsed electron impact has been studied by time-of-flight analysis. Near the end of a 35-cm field-free flight path, the excited atoms pass through a pair of electric field plates before entering an excited-atom detector. Electric field ionization was...

Abstract:: A new experimental technique for the study of atom-surface interactions is obtained by passing an atomic beam containing high-Rydberg states through a fine mesh target. The technique is demonstrated to be a sensitive probe of the electric fields of adsorbed dipole layers in transmission experiments in which a time-dependent beam...

Abstract:: Electric fields due to adsorbates on a metal surface are studied experimentally with Rydberg atoms as probes. A beam of lithium Rydberg atoms, produced by an oven in a high-vacuum system, passes within 3μm of the surface of a metal mesh having 6μm square openings. Rydberg states with principal quantum...

Abstract:: Electron capture negative ion mass spectroscopy (ECNIMS) has been performed on environmental chemicals and explosives. A trochoidal electron monochromator interfaced to a gas chromatograph and a quadrupole mass spectrometer allows compounds to be studied by this method. The method employed here differs from standard ECNIMS in that no reagent gas...

Creator:: Shippentower, Gene E.
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to determine if strontium chloride could be used to create a trans-generational otolith mark in steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss). I completed two strontium injection trials and a survey of juvenile steelhead from various steelhead hatcheries. The two trials measured Sr:Ca ratios in otoliths in response to injections...
