Organic Rankine-cycle power systems working fluids study: Topical report No. 2, Toluene

Description: The US Department of Energy initiated an investigation at Argonne National Laboratory in 1982 to experimentally determine the thermal stability limits and degradation rates of toluene as a function of maximum cycle temperature. Following the design and construction of a dynamic test loop capable of closely simulating the thermodynamic conditions of typical organic Rankine-cycle (ORC) power systems, four test runs, totaling about 3900 h of test time and covering a temperature range of 600-677(de… more

Electron spectroscopy study of the heavy fermion compound U/sub 2/Zn/sub 17/

Description: We report x-ray photoemission, resonant photoemission and Bremsstrahlung isochromat spectra of the 4f core levels, the valence band and the conduction band, respectively, of the heavy fermion compound U/sub 2/Zn/sub 17/ and the reference compound Th/sub 2/Zn/sub 17/, and we assess current efforts to interpret such spectra. 19 refs., 4 figs.

Miners-Iron test of optical fibers

Description: An experiment is described in which a number of optical fibers will be exposed to nuclear radiation in the Miners-Iron event at the Nevada Test Site. Two polymer clad silicon fibers and a borosilicate clad fiber will experience a dose of several Mrads, while a second set will experience about 0.1 Mrad. Attenuation and luninescence experiments are planned. Optic fibers will also be used for cables. (FS)

Synchrotron studies of narrow band materials

Description: Objective was to determine the single-particle electronic structure of selected narrow band materials in order to understand the relation between their electronic structures and novel low energy properties, such as mixed valence, heavy Fermions, Kondo effect, insulator-metal transitions, non-Fermi liquid behavior, and high-temperature superconductivity. This program supports photoemission spectroscopy (PES) at various synchrotrons. The progress is reported under the following section titles: ZS… more
