  2. Lecture 1 Completed - IA

    *Dan if you go into the actual powerpoint and view it that way, it allows you to reverse the audio and pause as you wish.

  4. Lecture I Completed - JN

    Can we please go over fission yield curves when we meet?

  5. We can discuss this in more detail.

    The fission yields are given as % yield versus A. The actual isotope represented by A can change with time. This is because the fission products can be radioactive and will decay to the stable member of the A isobar.

    If you have a specific question please let me know.

  6. JD: Lecture 1 Completed.

    Besides what Dan mentioned about some of the audio clips cutting off mid-sentence, the online lecture was successful. Viewing the lecture in presentation mode was extremely helpful, with you being able to point at the diagrams as it went along.
