NASA grant aids research
A $50,000 National Aeronautics and Space Administration research grant to four KU professors will create a center for the study of radiation at KU, according to Jack W. Culvahouse, professor of physics.
The grant awarded by NASA will be spent in the study of radiation damage in solids by means of Electron-Nuclear-Double-Resonance technique (ENDOR).
Recipients of the grant are J. W. Culvahouse; Robert J. Friauf, professor of physics; Larry J. Kevan, assistant professor of chemistry, and Edward J. Zeller, professor of geology. The four professors will jointly carry out the research project.
CULVAHOUSE SAID that it is expected they will contribute to the analysis of material that might be returned to the earth from lunar expeditions.
"The understanding of radiation damage," Culvahouse added, "will be a key step toward investigating present and past conditions on the surface of the moon.
Although the ENDOR technique is difficult, Culvahaboe felt the four faculty members will be able to carry out the measurements better than an individual versed in a single discipline.
ZELLER, COMMENTING on the project said, "I think we are the only people working on this type of research for NASA." He said they were the first people to handle the project. All of them, he added, had some experience working with the equipment having worked on projects in that area.
As for the time the project will take, Zeller said that the program is set for three years, but it will be two years before major results are obtained.
Construction of the apparatus for the project will begin this summer. Besides the four professors, four to five graduate students will be engaged in the research project, Zeller said.

Where does an engineer intern?
Before you decide on the job that's to start you on your professional career, it's good to ask a few point blank questions . . . like:
- Will this job let me rub shoulders with engineers doing things that haven't been done before, in all phases of engineering?
- Will I be working for an engineering oriented management whose only standard is excellence?
- Will I have access to experts in fields other than my own to help me solve problems and stimulate professional growth?
- Will I be working with the widest range of professional competence and technological facilities in the U. S.?
- Are engineering careers with this company stable . . . or do they depend upon proposals and market fluctuations?
