[texhax] special formatting requirement in documentclass report

[Balachander Narasimhan]

Hi,

I have a special requirement. I am using documentclass report. For chapter
title I use \chapter{Introduction} and I get the following output

Chapter. 1

Introduction

Contents start here....

There is a default spacing between these lines. Is there any way to change
this? For eg. I need 0.5cm spacing between chapter number and title and 1 cm
spacing between title and first line of contents. thanks for any help.

paper and it bounced back and hit you" - Rutherford recalling his discovery
of atomic nucleus in an experiment that involved the reflection of high
energy alpha particles from a thin foil.
