"Noise reduction study in a scaled model acoustic test facility."
The acoustic properties of five insulation materials were investigated in a 1/10- scale model acoustic facility. The materials were designed for applications in space vehicles. The model facility, consisting of a reverberation chamber coupled to an anechoic chamber, was evaluated for its use in noise reduction testing. It was found that a reasonably diffuse sound field existed above 900 Hertz. Modal density graphs of the reverberation chamber and spatial acoustic gradients measured within the chamber and across the test panel opening are compared to an idealized facility.; Prepared for the 75th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America,Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. May 21 - 24, 1968. -

Response to the request for top secret clearance in the case of Colonel John C. Nickerson, Jr.
The request of March 28, 1957 asks for top secret clearance for the members of the General Court-Martial, the Court Reporter, and the Civil Counsel as classified information is vital to the defense of Colonel Nickerson.

Convective Energy Transport in Stellar Atmospheres: A Convective Cell Model.
One of the Orange Aid Preprint Series in Nuclear Astrophysics, September 1968.; Supported in part by the National Science Foundation [GP-7976], the Office of Naval Research [Nonr-220(47)]. ; ABSTRACT: The motion in a convectively unstable region is expanded into an ensemble of convective cells. Each of these cells interacts with the surrounding medium according to the semiempirical model proposed by Turner (1963 ). Possible detailed models of the flow patterns within each cell are presented. The radius and velocity of these cells are given as functions of distance moved. The convective flux and rms velocity are given as averages over the ensemble of cells. As in the standard mixing length theory the principle uncertainty remains the average initial radius of the cells. -

"Chronology of early Air Force man-in-space activity: 1955 - 1960."
The foreword states "In this chronology, Air Force manned space flight activity is viewed from the perspective of the ballistic missile development agency - the Air Research and Development Command's Western Development Division, later re-named the Air Force Ballistic Missile Division. Due to resource limitations at the Space Systems Division historical office, research for this chronology has been generally limited to materials available in the files of that office. All documents cite in the notes which follow each entry are located in the archives of the Historical Division, Office of Information, Space Systems Division, in Los Angeles California." There are handwritten notes throughout. -
