  • Abstract
    Radioactive tracer technique applied to studies of the chemical activation of oxide cathodes show that the process is controlled by diffusion of reducing agents in the base nickel. A correlation will be demonstrated between the rate of reduction of the oxide coating and the pulse emission from the cathodes. Results will be reported for the development of activity for a number of single constituent base nickels.
