Neutron dosimetry with a water calorimeter
… followed by a review of water calorimetry and calorimeters for neutron dosimetry. The calorimeter, which consists simply of a thermally insulated tank of water, and its construction are described. The temperature rise in the water was detected by a thermistor which was incorporated in a …

Reaction calorimetry applied to kinetic problems. The design and construction of an isothermal calorimeter with heat compensation by the Peltier effect, and the application of the calorimeter in the study of reaction kinetics in solvent/water mixtures.
An isothermal calorimeter controlled by the Peltier effect has been designed and constructed in order to investigate reaction rates in solventwater mixtures. Because a thermal method was used a constant temperature environment was essential and this was achieved by using a water bath controlled to …

Search for neutrinoless double beta decay of ¹¹⁶Cd and ⁸²Se and calorimeter simulations for the SuperNEMO experiment
Using the NEMO-3 detector, 410.4 g of ¹¹⁶Cd with a total exposure of 1.65 kg• y and 932 g of ⁸²Se with a total exposure of 3.75 kg• y were used to measure the half-life of two-neutrino double beta decay (2[nu][beta][beta]) to the ground states of ¹¹⁶Sn and ⁸²Kr and to place a lower limit on the …

Heats of Neutralization of Sodium and Potassium Hydroxides with Sulfuric and Hydrochloric Acids Measured in an Ice Calorimeter
The heat evolved when a strong acid and a strong base react together in dilute solution affords a test in favor of Hess’s theory of ionization. In the case of the interaction of HC1 with KOH, or NaOH, in solution there is a remarkably close agreement among the values of deltaH. The average value is …
