Neutron and Gamma-Ray Attenuation for a Fission Source in Water : Comparison of Theory with LTSF Measurements

Description: Calculations are presented of the fast neutron dose rate, the gamma-ray dose rate, and the thermal neutron flux along the source plate axis in the Lid Tank with the tank filled entirely with water. These calculations are compared with experimental measurements. The calculations are absolute and are compared with absolute measurements.

Thermal Conductivity of Beryllium : Literature Survey

Description: Lewis in 1929 determined the thermal conductivity of beryllium metal for the first time. The next measurement reported in the open literature on the thermal conductivity of beryllium was by Powell in 1953. Measurements were also made by Grenell, Linebrink, and Johnson at Battelle Memorial Institute in 1947. Their values are in good agreement with those of Powell.
