A study of spontaneous ignition of metals /

This report describes a study of the reactions occurring in the spontaneous ignition of zirconium and titanium (and their alloys), with emphasis on the former. Conditions required for spontaneous ignition, including the effects of certain impurities, surface conditions, and composition of the atmosphere around the metal were investigated. In addition, the mechanism of ignition was studied by following the thermal history of the reactions during the first few milliseconds.

Radiation preservation of selected fruits and vegetables : an analysis of R & D programming and market factors /

Stanford Research Institute conducted this study to provide information to assist the Atomic Energy Commission in preparing a research and development program leading to the commercial application of radiation pasteurization for selected fruits and vegetables. Under the Quartermaster Corps' extensive program of research on irradiated foods, the five fruits and vegetables (strawberries, peaches, citrus fruits, grapes and tomatoes) of interest to the AEC have been irradiated experimentally. Results are inconclusive, but there are indications of both shelf-life extension and unfavorable radiation effects observed at dose levels below 500,000 rads.
