A LABORATORY ARC MELTING FURNACE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ALLOY SAMPLES FROM REACTIVE METALS

Abstract

An arc melting furnace for the production of small samples of alloys and intermetallic compounds has been design d and built. It is used in phase diagram investigations involving reactive materials such as rare earth metals. I T WAS ALSO USED FOR H LABORATORY SCALE PREPARATION OF NICKEL-COPPER ALLOYS BEING STUDIED FOR MAGNETIC THERMOMETRY. The design, capabilities and operation of the furnace are describe .

FULL ASYMPTOTIC CONTRIBUTION OF AN INTERIOR EXTREMU TO N N- IM SIO AL I TEGRAL DEPENDI G O A L RGE PARAMET R, by W. Pre man.

The valu of this integral, as the parame er becomes infinite, is he sum of con ributions from the neighborhood of certain critical poi ts. The full asymptotic contribution at a critical point which is an interior extremum i calculated for any n. It is shown that this formula reduces to kno n resul s for certain special cases. The technique employed is to reduce t e n-dimensional integral to a onedim nsional integral and then to employ known results obtained by the method of stationary phase for o e-dimensional integrals to ob ain the final an wer.
