His 1200-word column, "Notes of a Biology Watcher," ran from 1971 - 1980. The resulting compilations collectively...
The temporal and spatial characteristics of the plume produced
by a laser microprobe, are dependent upon the composition and pressure
of the atmosphere surrounding it. It has been shown that certain atmospheres
can enhance the analytical signal by increasing the free
atom lifetime.
Improvements were made to the existing laser...
The three-body heterogeneous and wall recombination coefficients for atomic oxygen were measured using an electron paramagnetic
resonance spectrometer to monitor the time dependence of the
atomic oxygen concentration. This measurement was made for a
pressure range of from .224 to 1.10 torr using pyrolysis of ozone as
a source of...
