- Description: In this thesis I have given an account of the work carried out by me on the measurement of the spectra and decay times of a few selected organic phosphors under ultraviolet and ionising radiation. The purpose of the investigation has been to attempt to throw more light on the mechanism by which energy migrates within the crystalline lattice. A general introduction is given to the process of fluorescence and the various proposed theories by which the excitation energy, which eventually appears as fluorescence light, is able to move about in the crystalline lattice. Preface, p. 1.

Measurements of the solubilities of some silver halides in water by electrical methods
- Authors: Malan, George McPherson
- Date: 1955
- Subjects: Silver halides -- Solubility , Silver halides -- Analysis , Conductometric analysis , Potentiometry , Silver halides

- Description: [Introduction, p. 3] The solubilities of the silver halides cannot be determined by the conventional methods of analytical chemistry because they are too sparingly soluble (of the order 1 x 10⁻⁵ to 1 x 10⁻⁶ g . equiv./1. at 25°C.) However, electrical, and to a lesser extent optical methods, are admirably suited because of their greater sensitivity. The conductometric and potentiometric methods are the two most important electrical techniques for the measurement of the solubilities of sparingly soluble salts, and are the ones employed in this research. There are large discrepancies between the published values for the solubility of silver chloride. Results obtained by the conductometric and potentiometric methods disagree. In addition, figures quoted by independent authors using the same method differ by as much as 15%.
