Laser Studies of Reactions.

Abstract

Research at the University of Utah under ONR contract covering the period March 1975 - February 1979 includes: (1) Results of ultrasonic absorption kinetics studies of macrocyclic ligands (crown ethers and cyclodextrins) in aqueous salt solutions and application of these results to a scheme for separating radioactive cesium and strontium from nuclear reactor wastes; (2) An unsuccessful laser flash photolysis study of bovine rhodospin; (3) The evolution of hydrogen gas from a visibly illuminated, water bathed, titanium (III) exchanged zeolite and the construction of a photoacoustic spectroscopy apparatus for determining the action spectrum of this material. Three recommendations for further work are outlined. The report concludes with a list of sixteen publications acknowledging ONR support.
