It also details how not all gases cool upon expansion, like hydrogen and helium, which can warm up. The Joule-Thomson coefficient (\(\mu_{JT}\)) determines this temperature change, generally calculated through the change of properties like pressure and enthalpy.

In the second approach, we find the row in the table below that corresponds to the available degrees of freedom and move across the row to find (or estimate) the a that corresponds to \(t_\text{exp} = t(\alpha,\nu)\); this establishes largest value of \(\alpha\) for which we can retain the null hypothesis.

In this chapter we review the basics of radioactive decay and its direct application to samples, and two other methods of importance: neutron activation and isotope dilution.

The three basic classes of particles were identified as “alpha”, “beta”, and “gamma” particles. Alpha particles were positive, relatively massive and were showed to be identical to the nucleus of the helium atom. Beta particles had a very small mass and were of higher energy and they carried a negative charge. Gamma particles were much more energetic, appeared to be neutral and were comparable to a high-energy photon of light.
