Analytical research and development for the Whitney Programs include the following studies: computer automation of the Cary Model 171 spectrophotometer; feasibility of a portable microwave-spectrometer analyzer for chemical contaminants in air; polarized x-ray source for energy-dispersive x-ray fluorescence spectrometry; lasers for analytical chemistry; ion-cyclotron- resonance mass spectrometer; time-resolved spectrophosphorimetry; x-ray photoelectron spectrometry (ESCA); automation of the Hewlett-Packard model 5950A ESCA spectrometer; system for determining tritium in solid materials; separation of molecular species by radiation pressure; examination of bulk versus surface decomposition in various TATB-binder formulations; study of a discolored TATB, utilizing ESCA spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, and an electron microprobe; measurement of the detection limit for surface analysis by 1.5-MeV $alpha$-particle backscattering; curium spectroscopy; semimicrodetermination of hydroxyl and amino groups with pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA); determination of microgram amounts of chloride by potentiometric titration; and, analysis of trace metals in water. Other studies include: laser spectroscopy of atomic uranium; simulation modeling of mixed-oxide fuel-rod fabrication plants; computation of simulated NMR spectra; chlorine-35 NMR studies of anion-binding sites in enzymes; automation of a mass spectrometer for the National Center for Toxicological Research (NCTR); and automation of the Davies-Gray/New Brunswick Laboratory Method for the determination of uranium.
