Physicist Sees New Moteriol
Extending Airborne Rodor

Airborne radar systems win be
|simplified and improved with the
use Of q new material called
ceramic ferrite," q visiting
Dutch physicist said here eyes
terday.
DR.. Anthony A. van Trier Is q
research specialist with the Phil
fps Research Laboratory Of the
Netherlands, which pioneered
the development Of the material.
He visited defense laboratories
|in Washington yesterday and to-
day.
Or. van Trier, who d only 20,
explained that microwAve trans
mission is an important part OF
radar systems. Microwayes do
not behave as other waves do.
but must be conducted along the
insides Of square metal tubes.
These tubes are called plumb
ing" from their appearance in
side aircraft.
Ceramic ferrites. when placed
inside these tubes, act as one
way valves. They let the waves
pass in one direction but not IN
the other. This properly greatly
simplifies systems because II does
away with more complicated
valve circuits.
Tightening and simplifying
|radar systems means they can
