Develops a theory of gravitation which is a natural extension of the Newtonian theory. It is compatible with special relativity and with all present-day observations. It requires only elementary mathematics and can be taught in a junior level mechanics course. (Author/MLH)

Provides instructions for constructing a desk analog computer which is particularly convenient to the user and has a number of advantages over commercially available models, including lower cost for given computing power. (Author/MLH)

Describes thermonuclear processes induced by interaction of a laser beam with the surface of a fuel pellet. An expanding plasma is formed which results in compression of the element. Laser and reactor technology are discussed. Pictures and diagrams are included. (GH)

Part II will appear in the May 1969 issue; Paper presented at the meeting of the AAPT at Tempe, Arizona, June 1968

This report describes an undergraduate course in digital subsystems. The course is divided into two major parts. Part I is entitled Electronic Circuits and Functional Units. The material in this part of the course proceeds from simple understandings of circuits to the progressively more complex functional units. Early emphasis is placed on basic…

This report contains the proceedings of a professional meeting on computer science held at Stanford University in October, 1968. Three papers presented at this meeting are published in the report. C. L. Coates spoke on "University Education in Computer Engineering"; L. P. Huelsman spoke on "Digital Computer Applications at the…

This supplement to "Modern Physics Buildings: Design and Function" is intended as an aid to physics department faculties, administrators, and architects responsible for designing new science buildings. It provides descriptions of 26 new physics buildings and science buildings with physics facilities. Presented are (1) floor plans, (2)…

This booklet was written to encourage close communication between architect and client and to assist planners of physics facilities in providing important features of building design. Some 300 items considered important are listed Also included is a list of 17 references related to facility construction (many available free of charge. A companion…
