Alterations in Cell Signaling Pathways in Breast Cancer Cells after Environmental Exposure

Description: Recent human epidemiological studies suggest that up to 75% of human cancers can be attributed to environmental exposures. Understanding the biologic impact of being exposed to a lifetime of complex environmental mixtures that may not be fully characterized is currently a major challenge. Functional endpoints may be used to assess the gross health consequences of complex mixture exposures from groundwater contamination, superfund sites, biologic releases, or nutritional sources. Such endpoints … more

Alternative Flowsheets for the Sulfur-Iodine Thermochemical Hydrogen Cycle

Description: OAK-B135 A hydrogen economy will need significant new sources of hydrogen. Unless large-scale carbon sequestration can be economically implemented, use of hydrogen reduces greenhouse gases only if the hydrogen is produced with non-fossil energy sources. Nuclear energy is one of the limited options available. One of the promising approaches to produce large quantities of hydrogen from nuclear energy efficiently is the Sulfur-Iodine (S-I) thermochemical water-splitting cycle, driven by high tempe… more

Anomalies in the Applied Magnetic Fields on Diii-D and Their Implications for the Understanding of Stability Experiments

Description: Small non-axisymmetric magnetic fields are known to cause serious loss of stability in tokamaks leading to loss of confinement and abrupt termination of plasma current (disruptions). The best known examples are the locked mode and the resistive wall mode. Understanding of the underlying field anomalies (departures in the hardware-related fields from ideal toroidal and poloidal fields on a single axis) and the interaction of the plasma with them is crucial to tokamak development. Results of both… more

Basic research needs to assure a secure energy future. A report from the Basic Energy Sciences Advisory Committee

Description: This report has highlighted many of the possible fundamental research areas that will help our country avoid a future energy crisis. The report may not have adequately captured the atmosphere of concern that permeated the discussions at the workshop. The difficulties facing our nation and the world in meeting our energy needs over the next several decades are very challenging. It was generally felt that traditional solutions and approaches will not solve the total energy problem. Knowledge that… more

Bull Trout (Salvelinus Confluentus) Population and Habitat Surveys in the McKenzie and Middle Fork Willamette Basins, 2001 Annual Report.

Description: Prior to 1978, bull trout were commonly known as dolly varden (Salvelinus malma) and were classified into an anadromous and interior form. Cavender (1978) described the interior form as a distinct species, classifying it as Salvelinus confluentus, the bull trout. Bull trout are large char weighing up to 18 kg and growing to over one meter in length (Goetz 1994). They are distinguished by a broad flat head, large downward curving maxillaries that extend beyond the eye, a fleshy knob and a notch … more

Caustic-Side Solvent Extraction: Prediction of Cesium Extraction for Actual Wastes and Actual Waste Simulants

Description: This report presents the work that followed the CSSX model development completed in FY2002. The developed cesium and potassium extraction model was based on extraction data obtained from simple aqueous media. It was tested to ensure the validity of the prediction for the cesium extraction from actual waste. Compositions of the actual tank waste were obtained from the Savannah River Site personnel and were used to prepare defined simulants and to predict cesium distribution ratios using the mode… more

Characterization of Water and CO2 Adsorption by Stores 3A Desiccant Samples Using Thermal Gravimetric Analysis and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy

Description: Two lots of manufactured Type 3a zeolite samples were compared by TGA/IR analysis. The first lot, obtained from Davidson Chemical, a commercial vendor, was characterized during the previous study cycle for its water and water-plus-CO{sub 2} uptake in order to determine whether CO{sub 2} uptake prevented water adsorption by the zeolite. It was determined that CO{sub 2} did not hamper water adsorption using the Davidson zeolite. CO{sub 2} was found on the zeolite surface at dewpoints below -40 C,… more
