Coulomb Functions for Reactions of Protons and Alpha-Particles with the Lighter Nuclei

New tables of coulomb functions are presented along with an introduction to their use. The ranges of parameters covered by the tabulations are those required for the calculation of reactions of protons, deuterons, and alpha-particles with the lighter nuclei, from hydrogen to oxygen, in the energy range of a few Mev. For alpha-particles the tables suffice for treatment of reactions up to about 10 Mev for $Z=9\mathrm{}$ (F) and 5 Mev for $Z=2\mathrm{}$ (He), while for protons the energy range covered is about 4 times that for alpha-particles. An indication of the principal applications of coulomb functions is given.
