The enclosed thesis presents an algorithm, programmed
in FORTRAN IV, which generates the radii for
the objective of an astronomical refracting telescope.
The results are analyzed by the Trigonometric Ray
Trace, and found to have tolerable amounts of spherical
aberration, chromatic aberration and coma.
The embryonic and larval stages of the long-toed salamander,
Ambystoma macrodactylum are described from fertilization through
the development of five toes on the posterior limbs. New stage numbers
are employed in the description of the hind limb.
The eggs used in the study were obtained by the injection of
pituitary...
Thirty-six sera from cases of infectious mononucleosis and 25
normal human serum specimens were studied by electrophoresis on
cellulose acetate. The results indicated that:
The mean concentration of total protein in the mononucleosis
sera was significantly higher than that of the normal sera. In 15 of
the 36 mononucleosis specimens...
The 3-cyclohexenyl carbinyl carbene species was formed by the
thermal decomposition of the p-toluenesulfonylhydrazone sodium
salt and by oxidation of the hydrazone. Several oxidizing agents
were studied. The products were investigated under aprotic and
protic conditions and at various temperatures. The diazocompound
was formed as an intermediate and found to...
The presence of diacetyl in sufficient concentrations to cause
off-flavor in beer is a serious economic problem affecting the brewing
industry. Research was carried out in an attempt to provide an
industrially acceptable method for reducing diacetyl to safe levels
in beer, with additional applications to frozen concentrated orange
juice,...
