A compact processing plant for thick nuclear emulsions

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

A compact processing plant for large nuclear emulsion stacks is described. A «wet» development procedure, which has been found to yield satisfactory results is discussed, together with certain more specific problems, such as the surface deposit of silver and the rate of silver removal from the emulsion during fixation.

Riassunto

Si descrive un compatto impianto per trattamento di grandi pacchi di emulsioni nucleari. Si discutono un procedimento di sviluppo « umido », che si è trovato dare risultati soddisfacenti, e alcuni problemi più particolari, come il deposito superficiale di argento e la velocità di asportazione dell’argento dalle emulsioni durante il fissaggio.
