Increased emphasis on research conducted near absolute zero has resulted in preparation of two tables listing the superconductivity of some metals, alloys and compounds. Further information of interest to physicists is the table of energy, mass, and velocity relations for the electron. Tables presenting data of magnetic properties of certain transformer steels and high permeability materials are included in the present edition. In addition to extending and revising the table of isotopes there has been added a listing of information of the transuranium elements through element 101. New tables containing the dielectric constants of pure liquids, dielectric constants moments of substances in the gaseous state are in present edition. Four tables containing information various sugars should prove helpful to chemists
