Mas is also proudly American. The bartender working on Wednesday, Andrew blunter, curly-headed and all-American, could have been playing John Adams in a college production of 1116. (A server walked by with a black spike Mohawk. He must be playing the natives. It s the West Village, isn t it ) And die ginger daiquiri, which Mr. Hunter developed widi Thomas Wilson, an owner, has Meyer lemon juice in it (as well as Cointreau), a citrus fruit popularized by new American chefs. 

Nevertheless the heat capacity of a carbon resistor was not so low as that of crystalline materials used later. More important, carbon resistors had an excess noise which limited the bolometer performance. In 1961, Low [61] proposed a bolometer which used a heavily doped Ge thermometer with much improved characteristics. This type of bolometer was rapidly applied to infrared astronomy as well also to laboratory spectroscopy. A further step in the development of bolometers came with improvements in the absorber. In the early superconducting bolometer built by Andrews et al. (1942) [62], the absorber was a blackened metal foil glued to the 7A thermometer. Low s original bolometer [61] was coated with black paint and Coron et al. [63] used a metal foil as substrate for the black-painted absorber. A definite improvement is due to J. Clarke, G. I. Hoffer, P. L. Richards [64] who used a thin low heat capacity dielectric substrate for the metal foil and used a bismuth film absorber instead of the black paint.

J. H. Coste and E. R. Andrews measured the solubility of nitrogen in soln. of sodium, potassium and ammonium chlorides and A. T. Larsen and C. A. Black, in liquid ammonia. N. T. de Saussure said that 100 vols. of either water or alcohol of sp. gr. 0-84 dissolve 4-2 vols. of nitrogen at 18° and 760 mm. The solubility of nitrogen is greater in alcohol than in water. R. Bunsen gave for the absorption coefi. ...

William Irvine was a native of Glasgow, matriculating at the university at the age of thirteen in 1756. Black soon noticed his interest in chemistry and his disposition to apply mathematics in his studies. Like Black, Irvine s main lines of communication for his work were through his students and the occasional excursion before the local Philosophical Society. Working as Black s assistant, Irvine helped in his professor s determination of the latent heat of steam and contributed values of that quantity for melting tin, zinc and spermaceti and beeswax. He also worked with Black on establishing experimentally the specific heats of various substances. However, Irvine became very much his own man. Andrew Kent puts it colourfully ...

Exposure of Bleached Pulp. Bleached pulp, based on 50% hardwood and 50% softwood kraft, jordaned to a Canadian standard freeness of 300-350 mL, was kindly supplied by Andrew Chase of the University of Maine. Unaged handsheets made from this pulp contained 85% a-cellulose (3) and 5% hot-1%-alkali-soluble matter (4). In the experiment illustrated in Figure 1, sheets were exposed in the Atlas 6500-W xenon-arc Fade-ometer equipped with Pyrex-glass filters the air temperature was 31 °C, and the relative humidity was 27% the black-panel temperature was 65 °C. Halfway through the reported period of... 

Black 1 about 1764 determined an average value of the latent heat of steam by. a crude method as 450 g.cal./g. Irvine found 430, and Watt, in 1781, found 533, which is a good value. Other experiments were made by Lavoisier and Laplace,3 Ure, Despretz, Brix and Andrews. ...

Andrew K. Black has indicated that incidents of malaria among black were considerably lower than among whites due to the fact that nearly all had previous exposure to malaria and had acquired either natural immunity or exhibited attenuated symptoms.

Series of chromatograms showing the separation of black ink. Chromatography is an analytical process, which separates a compound into its constituent chemicals. Chromatography paper is dipped vertically in a solvent with the ink painted on it (left). Capillary action draws the solvent up through the paper (center) and dissolves the ink. As the solvent travels up the paper, it takes the various chemicals in the ink with it, separating them into a series of colored bands.

Purple cloud of potassium permanganate diffusing outward as a solid piece dissolves in a beaker of water, seen from above. The solid piece (black) takes up much less space than the solution of potassium permanganate ions. This demonstrates the principle of diffusion, where a liquid or gas will spread out to fill the available space. This in turn demonstrates the fundamental differences between a solid and a gas or liquid. A solid is a rigid, constrained structure, which contrasts with the fluid, chaotic nature of a liquid or gas. The molecules of a solid are bonded, but solvation or melting breaks the bonds between the molecules. (Courtesy of Andrew Lambert Photography/Science Photo Library)...
