11 - FFTF-LMFBR seal test program, October-December 1973

Description: The objectives of this program are to: (1) conduct static and dynamic tests to demonstrate or determine the mechanical performance of full-size (cross section) FFTF fuel transfer machine and reactor vessel head seals intended for use in a sodium vapor - inert gas environment, (2) develop and demonstrate these FFTF seals or new seal configurations to provide acceptable fission product and cover gas retention capabilities at LMFBR Demonstration Plant operating environmental conditions other than … more

250-Kg Mirror Coil Development for the Linear Scyllac Experiment

Description: The linear Scyllac theta-pinch machine required mirror coils on each end of the 5-m-long lead coil, which would give mirror ratios of two to three times the 100-kG main coil magnetic field. A pulsed magnetic field of 250 RG was established as a design goal for the mirror coils. Several different designs were evaluated using the 178- kJ, 80-kV Scyllac prototype capacitor bank. Calculations were made to determine the coil geometry for each 250-kG cotl design. A copper-lined, steel-jacketed coil, … more

Absorption of electromagnetic rays near the critical density. Quarterly progress report, June 1, 1973--September 1, 1973

Description: An experimental study of the interaction of high-intensity ruby laser radiation with hydrogen gas in a free-jet is described. In these experiments both laser intensity and the plasma frequency can be varied. By monitoring several parameters, including incident and reflected power, x-ray emission and the kinematics of plasma growth, the existence of an anomalous threshold for coupling radiation into plasma energy should be determinable. A discussion of the experiment, including a design drawing … more

Absorption of electromagnetic waves near the critical density. Annual report, 1 December 1972--30 November 1973

Description: The program is an experimental study of the interaction of highintensity ruby laser radiation with hydrogen gas in a free-jet. In these experiments, both laser intensity and the plasma frequency can be varied. By monitoring several parameters, including incident and reflected power, x-ray emission and the kinematics of plasma growth, the existence of an anomalous threshold for coupling radiation into plasma energy should be determinable.

Adding memory to the PDP-9

Description: The University of Minnesota has expanded its PDP-9 memory to the full 32 K word capacity of the machine. The expansion from 8 K to 18 K words, entailing the construction of the Extended Memory Interface, was the most difficult part of the project. The interfacing procedure is described. (WHK)

Alpha pulse height analysis of 32 samples simultaneously using a minicomputer

Description: From 19th annual analytical chemistry conference; Jackson Hole, Wyoming, USA (3 Sep 1973). An alpha spectroscopy system for analysis of environmental samples at Rocky Flats is described. The system consists of 16 silicon detectors and associated electronics (preamplifiers, amplifiers, multiplier/router, analog- to-digital convcrter, pulseheight analyzer) for input in a NOVA 1200 minicomputer with 24 K, 16 bit memory. Software is briefly discussed. (WHK)
