N u c l e a r Radiation Films

For use with Beckman DU Spectrophotometers

A new series of seven educational films to help introduce high school physics students to studies of radia­ tion has been produced by Cenco Edu­ cational Films, 1700 Irving Park Rd., Chicago 13, 111. The series, titled "Nuclear Radia­ tion," explains different types of radia­ tion, how each is detected, and how each is used. The seven films in this series, running from 15 to 28 minutes each, are all on 16 mm. sound film, available both in color and black and white. Also avail­ able are 35 mm. filmstrips. A 33Vs rpm record will accompany each film

Available for the first time, these low cost, Aloe, ultraviolet trans­ mitting, round cuvettes offer dis­ tinct advantages to all educational, industrial and other research lab­ oratories. Multiple problem of low cost, accurate U-V cuvettes now solved with these round, matched cuvettes. Proven in laboratory use over a year. No unusual etching noted when 4 normal acid or alkali concentrations were allowed to stand for as long as two hours. They compare most favorably in accuracy, to say nothing of cost, with conventional square " q u a r t z " cuvettes in the 235-340 m u range where 9 5 % of all U-V measure­ ments are made. (Not Recommended for use with Pholomultiplier.)

Recalibration of Standard Thermal Neutron Flux Value of the standard thermal neu­ tron flux maintained by the National Bureau of Standards has been changed as the result of a recent gold foil recali­ bration. The new value, 4203 neu­ trons/cm. 2 -sec, is a weighted average of the gold determination and a previ­ ous value based on the cross section of boron.
