Finite Temperature Instability for Compactification

Description: We consider finite temperature effects upon theories with extra dimensions compactified via vacuum stress energy (Casimir) effects. For sufficiently high temperature, a static configuration for the internal space is impossible. At somewhat lower temperatures, there is an instability due to thermal fluctuations of radius of the compact dimensions. For both cases, the Universe can evolve to a de Sitter-like expansion of all dimensions. Stability to late times constrains the initial entropy of the… more

Stable Compactifications

Description: We show that compactifications of theories with extra dimensions are unstable if due to monopole configurations of an antisymmetric tensor field balanced against one-loop Casimir corrections. In the case of ten dimensional supergravity, it is possible, at least for a portion of the phase space, to achieve a stable compactification without fine-tuning by including the contribution of fermionic condensates to the monopole configurations. 23 refs., 2 figs.

Some concepts of favorability for world-class-type uranium deposits in the northeastern United States

Description: An account is given of concepts of favorability of geologic environments in the eastern United States for uranium deposits of several major types existing elsewhere in the world. The purpose is to convey some initial ideas about the interrelationships of the geology of the eastern United States and the geologic settings of certain of these world-class deposits. The study and report include consideration of uranium deposits other than those generally manifesting the geologic, geochemical and gen… more

Beam-based alignment technique for the SLC (Stanford Linear Collider) linac

Description: Misalignment of quadrupole magnets and beam position monitors (BPMs) in the linac of the SLAC Linear Collider (SLC) cause the electron and positron beams to be steered off-center in the disk-loaded waveguide accelerator structures. Off-center beams produce wakefields which limit the SLC performance at high beam intensities by causing emittance growth. Here, we present a general method for simultaneously determining quadrupole magnet and BPM offsets using beam trajectory measurements. Results fr… more

Description: We have used data from the Time Projection Chamber at the SLAC storage ring PEP to study the inclusive production of charged hadrons in e/sup /+//e/sup /-// annihilation at a center of mass energy of 29 GeV. Charged particles were identified by simultaneous dEdx and momentum measurements. We present cross sections and particle fractions for ..pi../sup/plus minus//, k/sup + -/, and p(/ovr/p//) as a function of energy, momentum, rapidity, and transverse momentum.

Cataract production in mice by heavy charged particles

Description: The cataractogenic effects of heavy charged particles have been evaluated in mice in relation to dose and ionization density (LET/sub infinity/). The study was undertaken due to the high potential for eye exposures to HZE particles among SPS personnel working in outer space. This has made it imperative that the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) in relation to LET/sub infinity/ for various particles be defined so that appropriate quality factors (Q) could be assigned for estimation of risk… more

Regenerative Process for Desulfurization of High Temperature Combustion and Fuel Gases. Progress Report No. 14, October 1-December 31, 1979

Description: The characteristics of Portland Type III cement (PC III) as a potential sorbent for use in a regenerative process for desulfurization of coal in fluidized-bed combustion were examined. The sulfation rates for PC III + 5% amorphous SiO/sub 2/ at temperatures between 860 and 1100/sup 0/C and at 1 atm were studied thermogravimetrically, using a simulated combustion gas mixture containing 0.25% SO/sub 2/. The sulfation rates were found to be independent of temperature between 950 and 1050/sup 0/C. … more

Validation of the materials-process-product model (coal SNG). [Estimating method for comparing processes, changing assumptions and technology assessment]

Description: The use of coal as a source of high Btu gas is currently viewed as one possible means of supplementing dwindling natural gas supplies. While certain coal gasification processes have demonstrated technical feasibility, much uncertainty and inconsistency remains regarding the capital and operating costs of large scale coal conversion facilities; cost estimates may vary by as much as 50%. Studies conducted for the American Gas Association (AGA) and US Energy Research and Development Administration… more

A MARKOV MODEL OF THE REPAIR-MISREPAIR PROCESS OF CELL SURVIVAL

Description: The repair-misrepair model of cell survival is formulated mathematically as a Markov process. The nucleus of a cell is described by the status of the lesions that resulted from exposure to radiation. At any time each of these lesions is either unrepaired, misrepaired, or eurepaired. A system of coupled differential equations for the probabilities of zero, one, two, ... unrepaired lesions is derived. The probability of survival of a cell is the probability of zero unrepaired or misrepaired lesio… more
