for Treating Hyaline Membrane\n\nA device that increases respiration in premature in-fants stricken with hyaline membrane disease and is nowin widespread use in hospitals throughout the country hasbeen patented by Dr.David L.Carlson of Iowa StateUniversity.  \nIn 1963 the disease killed Patrick Bouvier Kennedy,son of the late President.Each year it affects some  \n25,000 newborn babies in the United States,mostly pre-mature ones.One out of every 15 babies is born pre-maturely;the greater the prematurity,the greater thedanger that a baby's lungs will not inflate properly.  \nDr.Carlson said his respiratory augmentor “is a usefuladjunct to the intensive care normally given in the treat-  \nment of premature infants with hyaline membrane dis-ease.\"He stressed,however,that it \"is a treatment only,not a cure.”  \nThe device,which has been on the market about ayear,is made by Bourns,Inc.,Ames,Iowa.It consistsof a nose mask to which two conduits are attached,onefor inhalation,the other exhalation.An electronic moni-tor and control are used to stimulate the infant to returnto the natural breathing rate whenever it falls below thatrate.  \nAlthough any mask can be used with the apparatus,the preferred one was designed by Dr.Carlson,withJohn B.Buck,and a patent on it will be issued shortly.Rights to both patents are assigned to the Governmentthrough the Department of Health,Education andWelfare.Patent 3,357,428  \n# SOLID STATE PHYSICS\n\nRadiation Detecting System  \nExposure to ionizing radiation,such as X-rays,gammarays and nuclear radiation,is an increasingly serioushazard to human beings.To avoid excessive dosage,exposed persons must monitor the total radiation theyreceive.  \nA relatively new type of dosimeter uses thermolumi-nescent material to determine exposure.Ionizing radia-tion causes electrons within the crystal structure to be  \nV  \ntrapped.They are released with the emission of visiblelight when the material is heated,and the radiationdosage determined by the amount of light after it isamplified by a photomultiplier tube.  \nDrs.Kenneth D.Cashion of Friendswood,Texas,andBenny R.Baker of Houston have developed an electronicswitching method of measuring this light when the inputsignal is low,as would be produced by doses of 10 to500 milliroentgens.  \nPatent rights were assigned to the Government throughthe National Aeronautics and Space Administration.  \nPatent 3,358,145  \n# ACCELERATOR PHYSICS\n\nVariable Bubble Chamber  \nA two-in-one bubble chamber that is in use at theworld's second largest atom smasher,the 33 Bev acceler-ator at Brookhaven National Laboratory,earned a patentfor its director,Dr.Maurice Goldhaber.  \nHe said the device was also in use at several acceler-ators in Europe and that many institutions in the UnitedStates were planning to add it to their auxiliary equip-ment for studying the structure of atomic nuclei.  \nDr.Goldhaber noted that its \"two main values arethat it allows a single chamber originally built for hydro-gen as the liquid to be adapted for heavier liquids with-out building a special chamber for that purpose and thatit combines a whole range of ratios.\"  \nThese aims are accomplished by adding neon selec-tively to the hydrogen.A circulating system for theliquid mixture prevents separation of the neon andhydrogen.  \nAs the energies of nuclear particles under study con-tinue to grow higher,larger bubble chambers have beenrequired to record the particle tracks because it takeslonger for them to come to rest and react.Dr.Gold-haber's invention makes it possible to provide a bubblechamber for use with higher energy particles withoutscaling up the size of the chamber.  \nDr.Goldhaber assigned rights to the Governmentthrough the U.S.Atomic Energy Commission.Patent 3,358,144  \n# Measuring Magnetic Materials\n\nA method fo","cbCairVbCA3VBAMX","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairVbCA3VBAMX","pdf",2967518,24,"English","# Device for
