Progress Report - Studies on the Propagation of Gamma Rays in Air

Description: Initial rough measurements of the quality of the gamma radiation from Co-60 in air indicated agreement with the theoretical calculations of Spencer and Fano for an infinite water medium. Further experiments were performed, duplicating the conditions assumed in the calculations. Since the spectral region between 100 kev and 1 mev has already been examined by Hayward, it was decided to investigate in detail the region below 100 kev and above 1.0 mev. Total radiation dosage measurements were made … more

Accelerator Development Department Internal Report

Description: In this report we present solutions of the design problem in which a system of quadruple lenses is required to carry a particle beam from given focal lines in the x and y planes to other given focal lines. Particular attention will be given to the case of the anastigmatic lens system which takes a beam from one focal point to another focal point. Since the general problem is almost impossibly complicated a simplification is introduced by breaking the lens system into two parts. The first part o… more

Stored Energy in BNL Reactor Graphite

Description: Radiation damage to graphite has several consequences of practical importance. The growth of graphite under radiation (Wigner's disease) in production reactors has always been a serious concern. The thermal conductivity of graphite decreases greatly with time of irradiation and is important in long range studies of reactor temperature problems.

The Nuclear Reactor with a Transverse Air Gap

Description: Diffusion theory and transport theory approaches to the problem of a nuclear reactor with a transverse air gap are compared. It is suggested that the differences in results for thin gaps is due to the fact that diffusion theory does not adequately represent the flux distribution in the immediate vicinity of the gap. For mathematical conveniences previous treatments of the gap problem have made use of fictitious image piles which exaggerate the neutron losses. The extent of the error is estimate… more

Irradiation Effects on 2S Aluminum

Description: As a result of unreported information, it was suspected by some people that a change in dimension was experienced by 2S Aluminum due to a sudden change in neutron flux impinging on it. This was thought to be of the order of 500 microinches per inch in magnitude. Such an effect, if present, could help explain some of the creep phenomena reported lately (i.e. change in creep rate due to cyclotron bombardment.)

Summary Hazards Report on Enriched Fuel Element Loading for the BNL Research Reactor

Description: Report issued by the Brookhaven National Laboratory discussing a hazards report on replacing the research center's current fuel elements with new highly enriched elements. As stated in the introduction, "this report is a summary of the studies, both theoretical and experimental, which have been made so far of the nuclear properties of the "new" pile, of the stability of the new fuel elements, and of the safety and practicability of operation of the "new" pile" (p. 2). This report includes table… more

Technical Discussion of Brookhaven Off-Site Personnel Monitoring Service

Description: A number of questions have arisen in regard to the interpretation of personnel monitoring results reported to users of the Brookhaven neutron monitoring service. The original announcement was rather brief and did not contain most of the technical characteristics upon which an evaluation of results must be based. The following paragraphs have been composed with the hope that they will clarify the meaning of the exposure reports.

Pipet Filler

Description: A number of pipetting aids are commercially available which obviate the necessity of filling pipets by oral suction. Most of the commercially available devices involve fitting the pipet into a soft tight fitting bushing and filling by means of either a piston or a rubber bulb. The pipet is then emptied by means of a valve control which permits, it is claimed, a dispensing accuracy of 0.1mL. It is at once apparent that the probable error (10% for a 1 mL. pipet) is considerably greater than is pe… more

The Approximation with Anisotropic Effects for Cylindrical Geometry

Description: The method of spherical harmonic tensors developed Mark for solving the Boltzmann transport equation in isotropic media is herein extended to anisotropic media for cylindrical geometry. A formal solution is given for the case of two concentric cylindrical media, A and B, but no numerical work has yet been done. The following treatment differs from a similar one by the H. K. Ferguson Co. in that the external medium B is assumed to be both a neutron absorber and finite in extent rather than a non… more
