In the area of automation and instrumentation, progress in the following studies is reported: computer automation of the Cary model 17I spectrophotometer; a new concept for monitoring the concentration of water in gases; on-line gas analysis for a gas circulation experiment; and count-rate-discriminator technique for measuring grain-boundary composition. In the area of analytical methodology and measurements, progress is reported in the following studies: separation of molecular species by radiation pressure; study of the vaporization of U(thd)$sub 4$, (thd = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-drone); study of the vaporization of U(C$sub 8$$H$$sub 8$$)$$sub 2$; determination of ethylenic unsaturation in polyimide resins; and, semimicrodetermination of hydroxyl and amino groups with pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA).
