EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF COLLECTIVE ELECTRON EXCITATIONS IN THIN SUPERCONDUCTING METAL FILMS.

Abstract

The electron accelerator and energy analyzer have been constructed and tested. The energy losses for several metals including aluminum, tin and lead have been observed and the results compare favorably with the free electron plasmon theory. Preliminary reduced temperature measurements have been made on aluminum using liquid nitrogen and a change in the energy loss values is observed. This report gives the results through the third quarter of this contract. (Author)
