Abstract: The preliminary design is described for a small electric-power-generating plant powered by an organic moderated reactor. System and component requirements are discussed and possible design configurations and equipment are described.
From abstract: The vapor pressure determination of solid ThF4 has been completed. Experiments to determine the heat of formation of ThF4 by studying the reaction of ThF4 with SiO2 are described.
Abstract: Presented herein is the preliminary design of a natural uranium, graphite moderated, CO2-cooled reactor and power plant similar to, but larger than, the British Calder Hall plant, with a net electrical output of 130 MWE.
Report issued by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory discussing semiannual progress made by the Instrumentation and Controls Division. Descriptions of progress and studies conducted are presented. This report includes illustrations, and photographs.
From abstract: The response of the reactor to forced oscillations has been investigated with the pile oscillator technique and the data are presently being analyzed.
Abstract: An IBM-650 computer has been used to calculate series terms required for the area analysis of Doppler-broadened neutron cross section resonances according to the formulation of G. M. Roe.
Report describing technical progress on the design and construction of an Organic Moderated Reactor Experiment (OMRE), to be operated at the National Reactor Testing Station in Arco, Idaho. "This is the second report of the series, and covers the period from August 1, 1956 through October 31, 1956" (p. 3).
Report describing technical progress on the design and construction of an Organic Moderated Reactor Experiment (OMRE), to be operated at the National Reactor Testing Station in Arco, Idaho. "This is the first report of the series and coves the period from the initiation of the project to July 31, 1956. Also included as an appendix to the report is a detailed description of the OMRE facility" (p. 3).
Report issued by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory discussing semiannual progress made by the Physics Division. Descriptions of progress and studies conducted are presented. This report includes tables, and illustrations.
Report that describes the reactor physics of the processes used to produce plutonium at Hanford Laboratories. This includes a basic explanation of nuclear physics and the principles of the reactor process.
From abstract: Impact tests on the Mark III Hanford safety element indicate that the design is mechanically adequate and does not constitute a personnel hazard.
Report presenting a collection of gamma spectra containing samples of the response of NaI(TI) scintillation detectors to a large number of the more frequently encountered radioactive nuclides.
From introduction: "Report discussing the necessity for shielding of a fast breeder reactor, primary, graphite, and thermal shields, and safety considerations in the design of a primary shield."
From abstract: "An ionization chamber of the integrating type was built that could detect a tritium leak rate of 10[^-13] cc per second within a few minutes, after a gas-collecting period of 16 hours. Electronic circuitry was avoided by using a quartz fiber voltmeter to indicate the rate of discharge of the chamber."
Report containing "[a] brief description and design data summary of each of the SPERT Reactor Facilities is presented. Engineering, operating, and physics data are tabulated for use as basic references" (p. 3)
