Gamma-Ray Spectrometry of Neutron-Deficient Isotopes: Annual Progress Report, June 1966
Progress report discussing the activities in "a program of studies of nutron-deficient nuclides using the techniques of gamma-ray spectroscopy" (abstract).
Engineering Test Reactor Critical Facility Control System Manual
This report consists of the description, drawings, connections, and schematics of the various control elements that make up the control system of the Engineering Test Reactor Critical Facility (ETRC).
STEP Project Quarterly Technical Report: January-June 1964
Report regarding the Safety Test Engineering Program (STEP), the transient and destructive testing of the aerospace SNAP 10A/2 reactor, and the evaluation of the results of these tests.
Post-Test Physical, Chemical and Metallurgical Analysis of SNAPTRAN-3 Fuel
The fuel element damage which occurred during the SNAPTRAN-3 Destructive Test of a Snap 10A/2 reactor is described. Chemical analysis of the fuel indicated that approximately 15% of the hydrogen was released and that the core flux was higher toward the center both radially and axially. Metallurgical analysis of the fuel determined the presence of the epsilon, delta, and gamma phases in the grain structure and evidence of a possible alpha or beta phase.
In-Pile Test of Prototype ML-1 Fuel Elements
Report documenting the testing of prototype fuel elements used in a mobile nuclear power plant. Includes descriptions and evaluations of the test.
Pilot Plant Development Studies of a Continuous Process for Recovering Uranium from Nichrome Fuels
Report documenting a process for recovering uranium from nichrome fuels (HTRE). This is accomplished by dissipating the fuel into a mixture of HCl-HNO3, stripping away chlorine ions with HN03, and recovering the uranium via tributyl phosphate solvent extraction.
