Natural hydromagnesite (Mg5(CO3)4(OH)2·4H2O) dissolution and precipitation experiments were performed in closed-system reactors as a function of temperature from 22.5 to 75ºC and at 8.6 < pH < 10.7. The equilibrium constants for the reaction Mg5(CO3)4(OH)2·4H2O + 6H+ = 5Mg2+ + 4HCO3– + 6H2O were determined by bracketing the final fluid compositions obtained from the dissolution and precipitation experiments. The resulting constants were found to be 1033.7±0.9, 1030.5±0.5 and 1026.5±0.5 at 22.5, 50 and 75ºC, respectively. Whereas dissolution rates were too fast to be determined from the experiments, precipitation rates were slower and quantified. The resulting BET surface areanormalized hydromagnesite precipitation rates increase by a factor of ~2 with pH decreasing from 10.7 to 8.6. Measured rates are approximately two orders of magnitude faster than corresponding forsterite dissolution rates, suggesting that the overall rates of the low-temperature carbonation of olivine are controlled by the relatively sluggish dissolution of the magnesium silicate mineral.

The columnar theory developed by Jaffé to account for the recombination of ions in alpha particle tracks is extended to beta rays by taking account of the clusters of secondary ionisation. Reasonable agreement is obtained with experiment. Recombination in proton tracks produced in hydrogen by neutrons is shown to be in agreement with the columnar theory, but in the case of nitrogen nuclear tracks in nitrogen the recombination is only a hundredth of that predicted by the theory. An explanation of this effect is advanced, and it is suggested that recombination is likely to be abnormally small for all heavy nuclei of velocities not exceeding 5 × 108 cm. per sec.An experimental determination of the coefficient of recombination of ions in nitrogen and hydrogen at pressures of 20, 40 and 90 atmospheres is reported.My thanks are due to Dr Chadwick for interest in this work, and to Dr Gray and Dr Tarrant for advice on the experimental technique of high pressure ionisation measurements. I am indebted also to the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research for a maintenance grant.

Model intensity profiles have been obtained for biscarbonyl[ 14]annulene by convoluting the Mo Ka spectral distribution with two functions derived from experimental measurements at 16(1) K, up to 26Mo = 110�, of a spherical crystal mounted on a four-circle diffractometer equipped with the Samson low-temperature apparatus. The process includes accurate measurement of the inherent background, treatment of the profiles by numerical Fourier methods, and least-squares fitting. Owing to the instrumental configuration of the diffractometer used in this investigation, the first step of the process has required a careful determination of the X dependence of the background, besides the usual 26 dependence. Truncation losses for the crystal under study, evaluated for several scan ranges, are far larger than usually assumed or predicted.
