To prepare the latter, silver chloride was precipitated from a solution containing Af obtained from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

The silver chloride was fused under vacuum in the presence of aluminum chips with the resultant product of Af which was sublimed into a flask on the vacuum line.

Wires whined as a cold November blast rocked the silver wings, but the engine roar was reassuring to the pilot bundled in the open cockpit.

everyone was flipping silver dollars.

The night we first met, at one of Mrs. Monmouth's giant parties, he was wearing a brown cashmere jacket with silver buttons and a soft pink Viyella shirt ; ;

As a god of archery, Apollo was known as Aphetor ( ; Ἀφήτωρ, Aphētōr, from ὰφίημι, " to let loose ") or Aphetorus ( ; Ἀφητόρος, Aphētoros, of the same origin ), Argyrotoxus ( ; Ἀργυρότοξος, Argurotoxos, literally " with silver bow "), Hecaërgus ( ; Ἑκάεργος, Hekaergos, literally " far-shooting "), and Hecebolus ( ; Ἑκηβόλος, Hekēbolos, literally " far-shooting ").

The " international ampere " was an early realization of the ampere, defined as the current that would deposit grams of silver per second from a silver nitrate solution.

When a beam of silver atoms was passed through a specially shaped magnetic field, the beam was split based on the direction of an atom's angular momentum, or spin.

Grey slashed public expenditure against heavy opposition, although its impact was negligible at this point: silver was discovered in Glen Osmond that year, agriculture was well underway, and other mines sprung up all over the state, aiding Adelaide's commercial development.

Adelaide was not as badly hit as the larger gold-rush cities of Sydney and Melbourne, and silver and lead discoveries at Broken Hill provided some relief.

Native copper, however, was found worldwide, along with silver, gold and platinum, which were also used to make tools, jewelry, and other objects since Neolithic times.

The amalgam was applied as a paste and then heated until the mercury vaporized, leaving the gold, silver, or tin behind.

Mercury was often used in mining, to extract precious metals like gold and silver from their ores.

Dame Jean was at one time a lady-in-waiting to Princess Alice, Duchess of Gloucester, patron of the Dandie Dinmont Club, a breed of dog named after one of Sir Walter Scott's characters ; and a horse trainer, one of whose horses, Sir Wattie, ridden by Ian Stark, won two silver medals at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea.

The spread of the Akkadian state as far as the " silver mountain " ( possibly the Taurus Mountains ), the " cedars " of Lebanon, and the copper deposits of Magan, was largely motivated by the goal of securing control over these imports.

Throughout the 5th century BC, Athens sought to consolidate its control over Thrace, which was strategically important because of its primary materials ( the gold and silver of the Pangaion hills and the dense forests essential for naval construction ), and the sea routes vital for Athens ' supply of grain from Scythia.

Volta had determined that the most effective pair of dissimilar metals to produce electricity was zinc and silver.

The logo was redesigned with red and silver accents to depict a more powerful, aggressive falcon, which now more closely resembles the capital letter F. Although the Falcons still wore black helmets, the new uniforms featured jerseys and pants with red trim down the sides.

But the " Burnt City " of his second stratum, revealed in 1873, with its fortifications and vases, and a hoard of gold, silver and bronze objects, which the discoverer connected with it, began to arouse a curiosity which was destined presently to spread far outside the narrow circle of scholars.

In addition, the inner surface of the carbon shield was covered with aluminum foil to reduce radiation.

First plutonium-239 nitrate (< sup > 239 </ sup > PuNO < sub > 3 </ sub >) solution was coated on a platinum foil of about 0. 5 cm < sup > 2 </ sup > area, the solution was evaporated and the residue was converted into plutonium dioxide ( PuO < sub > 2 </ sub >) by annealing.

In 1909, Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, under the direction of physicist Ernest Rutherford, bombarded a sheet of gold foil with alpha rays — by then known to be positively charged helium atoms — and discovered that a small percentage of these particles were deflected through much larger angles than was predicted using Thomson's proposal.

Rutherford interpreted the gold foil experiment as suggesting that the positive charge of a heavy gold atom and most of its mass was concentrated in a nucleus at the center of the atom — the Rutherford model.

The 1904 Thomson model was disproved by the 1909 gold foil experiment, which was interpreted by Ernest Rutherford in 1911

First, americium (< sup > 241 </ sup > Am ) nitrate solution was coated on a platinum foil, the solution was evaporated and the residue converted by annealing to americium dioxide ( AmO < sub > 2 </ sub >).

This effort to foil compilers was only partly successful.

Finds included gold foil crosses, suggesting the occupant was Christian.

Lieutenant-General Neil Ritchie had decided not to hold the defences on the Egyptian border, because the defensive plan there relied on his infantry holding defended localities, while a strong armoured force was held back in reserve to foil any attempts to penetrate or outflank the fixed defences.

To minimize the visual impact, the building was covered in large reflective glass panels ; Cobb said this would make the building a " background and foil " to the older structures around it.

It was in 1744 when von Kleist lined a glass jar with silver foil, and charged the foil with a friction machine.

Soon it was found that it was better to coat the exterior of the jar with metal foil ( Watson, 1746 ), leaving the ( accidentally ) impure water inside acting as a conductor, connected by a chain or wire to an external terminal, a sphere to avoid losses by corona discharge.

In this technique, the target element was placed on the opposite side of the target from the beam and caught the recoiling atoms on a catcher foil.

The removal of the Md atoms from the collector foil was done by acid etching or total dissolution of the thin gold foil.

As a straight man he was often a foil to the rising ire of characters portrayed by John Cleese.

* 1944 – Wally Walrus, Woody Woodpecker's first steady foil, was debuted at the The Beach Nut, a Walter Lantz's cartoon.

However, it was finished, the foil was put on ; I then shouted ' Mary had a little lamb ', etc.

They were dirty, their clothes were torn, and the girl was so exhausted that she fell when she was still twenty feet from the front door.

The silence oppressed him, made him bend low over the horse's neck as if to hide from a wind that had begun to blow far away and was twisting slowly through the darkness in its slow search.

Cabot turned back to the men and he was drunk with the thing they would do, wild to break from the cloying warmth of the saloon into the cold of the ebbing night.

The Gap looming before him -- the place where had confronted Jack English on that day so many years ago -- was his exit from all that had meaning to him.

He was too old -- when he passed up and through the corridor of pines that lined the trail he could see ahead, he was passing from life.

He might tell her how sorry a spectacle she was making of herself, pretending to be blind to the way Julia Fortune had taken Dean's affections from her.

A bullet tore the earth from beneath his foot when he was a stride or two from safety.

It was pitiful to see the thin ranks of warriors, old and young, wheeling and twisting their ponies frantically from side to side only to be tumbled bleeding from their saddles by the relentless slam, slam of the cruelly efficient Hawkinses.

She was carrying a quirt, and she started to raise it, then let it fall again and dangle from her wrist.

It was obvious that he wished himself different from the sort of person he thought he was.

Now, here was something of obvious importance to me, yet when I reached for the tickets he snatched them away from my hand.

It was, I felt, possible that they were men who, having received no tickets for that day, had remained in the hall, to sleep perhaps, in the corners farthest removed from the counter with its overhead light.

Though only a relatively short walk separated it from my own part of town, its character was wholly foreign to me.

The river was only a few blocks away but an unbroken line of piers prevented me from seeing it.

It was to him that Barton had sent Carl Dill on Dill's release from the prison.

Hague, like all who worked near the pits, was partly deafened from the constant assault against his eardrums.

But she was caught in it, and she faced the terrible possibility that, if it were a dream, it was one from which she might never awaken.

He had to depend on himself, since he was invariably miles and hours away from others.

An inquest was held, and after a good deal of testimony about the anonymous notes, the county coroner estimated that the shooting had been done from a distance of 300 yards.
