Determination of Uranium as Pyrophosphate
IN the gravimetric determination of uranium as phosphate, the ignited precipitate is commonly considered1 to be the pyrophosphate (UO2)2P2O7 (U = 66.67 per cent). In recent work in these laboratories uranium was ...

Detection of a new white-dwarf binary system in the extreme ultraviolet using the Rosat Wide Field Camera
DETAILED understanding of the evolution of main-sequence stars into white dwarfs depends on knowledge of the chemical composition of white-dwarf atmospheres, but the hottest white dwarfs emit much of their rad...

Growth and Characterization of GaN Nanowires for Hydrogen Sensors
We report on the growth and characterization of high-quality GaN nanowires for hydrogen sensors. We grew the GaN nanowires by catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using gold thin films as a catalyst on a ...
