He came, He saw and He observed – An Analysis of Reis door Noord Amerika by Pehr Kalm

Autoionization of He and Autodetachment of He- following Bombardment by H+, H2+, He+, and He Atoms

Calculations of the binding energies of weakly bound He–He–H, He–He–H− and He–H–H molecules

We searched for the existence of weakly bound He–He–H, He–He–H− and He–H– H molecules where the binding energies are expected to be of the order of degrees Kelvin. By employing the best empirical interaction between each pair of particles, we solved the Schrödinger equation for the triatomic systems using hyperspherical coordinates in the adiabatic approximation. We found no bound states for 4H...

He/He and (U-Th)/He Evidence for an Ancient Grand Canyon”

We reiterate that geological observations do not require Grand Canyon carving coeval with Colorado River integration. (U-Th)/He data from the western canyon, totaling 29 reproducible analyses from six samples and two labs, compellingly support an ancient canyon. Three dispersed analyses from one anomalous sample do not refute this conclusion, nor do the claimed shortcomings of our modeling have...

Comment on “Apatite He/He and (U-Th)/He Evidence for an Ancient Grand Canyon”

Flowers and Farley (Reports, 21 December 2012, p. 1616; published online 29 November 2012) use thermochronometry to propose that the western paleo–Grand Canyon was nearly as deep 70 million years ago (Ma) as today. However, lithologies, facies relations, geomorphology, and paleotopography of Miocene interior-basin deposits near the mouth of the Grand Canyon show that no paleocanyon existed in t...

Thermodynamics of Liquid 'he- " He Mixtures

The osmotic pressure of 3He-4He solutions is shown to follow in a natural way from the separation of the specific heat in a quasiparticle contribution and a 4He-contribution. Expressions for important thermodynamic properties such as the chemical potentials, the internal energy, the entropy, specific heat, osmotic pressure, etc. are given for the case the quasiparticle gas can be treated as a n...
