(Part II of this report is issued as UCRL-4710.)

This report contains the findings of a panel which was
formed to make an independent evaluation of the Swift,
Swallow, and Swan devices. The chief purpose of the

study is to determine the credibility of the parameters

used and the calculations which have led to the various
designs, and also to ascertain whether anything
pertinent had been overlooked. Detailed descriptions of
each of the devices considered are given, together with
a summary of the calculations and the theoretical
aspects of each.
