...emphasized that the scientists needed about a year to prepare for another such fight. "Now apparatus must be added and old apparatus must be redesigned," he said...
...have no plans, only ambitions," he said. "It requires a year to got ready. Mechanically we can be prepared in four months, but even though most of the apparatus is privately furnished, we need the War Department's backing...
...department of metallurgy, housed in the Rotch Building, has been completely rebuilt during the last two years and includes the best facilities obtainable for its purposes both in instruction and research. For instance, the laboratory possesses one of the best and most recently developed metallographic microscopes. The X-ray apparatus is of the latest design and the facilities for the preparation and heat treatment of alloy samples are unusually good...
...department concerns itself largely with the theory of metals and alloys based on the study of the crystalline structure through application of X-ray diffraction technique and microscopy. Recently Dr. Hultgren has developed a cathode ray oscillograph apparatus for the measurement of the position of X-ray diffraction lines recorded on photographic film. This apparatus permits the position of the diffraction lines to be measured with great accuracy and rapidity, and is proving a valuable tool in the determination of the distances between the atoms in metallic crystals. These distances are of the order of the hundred millionth part...
...velocity. This electron bombardment furnace is capable of heating several grams of metal to a temperature of 3000 degrees Centigrade, and its limiting high temperature is set by the lack of suitable high melting crucibles to contain the sample under study rather than by any inherent limitation in the apparatus itself. This furnace makes possible the experimental investigation of many alloys which were formerly very difficult to melt under the controlled conditions necessary for scientific research...
