CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY INTER-OFFICE MEMO
TO Dr. Catchpool FROMLinus Pauling DATE 17 Feb. 1964
SUBJECTAnesthesia
In order to keep you informed, I am telling you about a suggestion that I made to Dr. Sato. It is that he repeat the experiments that he has carried out on the system water-chloroform-methane, but with water and chloroform added in the ratio corresponding to the formula of the clathrate, rather than one-to-one volume. In the latter case there is a complication because of extra liquid chloroform present in the system
Also, I suggested that he check the achievement of thermodynamic stability by warming his sample slowly up to perhaps 3 degrees, and then cooling slowly (at the same rate, down toward 2 degrees or 1 degree, to see if the pressure in the system follows back along the warming curve. He could then start warming again, to get the rest of the curve.
