Plasma Accumulation in a Device Fed by Energetic Ion Trapping

Description: Simon (1960) has given a general steady state theory of plasma accumulation (without energy losses) in an OGRA device. Such a device is fed by injection of energetic molecular ions which dissociate to produce trapped protons. Initial trapping is achieved by dissociation in the background gas. Such a device is usually characterized by a critical input current of critical plasma density (a function of input current) above which plasma density builds up to a value limited by Coulomb-scattering los… more

Plutonium Release Incident at Oak Ridge National Laboratory

Description: A nonnuclear explosion involving an evaporator occurred in a shielded cell in the Radiochemical Processing Pilot plant at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Plutonium released from the processing cell contaminated areas in the pilot plant building and nearby streets and building surfaces. The explosion is considered the result of rapid reaction of nitrated organic compounds formed by the inadvertent nitration of about 14 liters of a proprietary decontaminating reagent.
