Determination of the Occurrence of Gold in an Unoxidized Carlin-Type Ore Sample Using Synchrotron Radiation

Description: The occurrence of the so-called invisible gold in two unoxidized Carlin-type gold samples from Nevada have been determined using synchrotron x-ray fluorescence (SXRF) analysis at the National Sychrotron Light Source, Brookhaven National Laboratory. The samples were a bedded sample from the east ore zone of the Carlin deposit and a breccia sample from Horse Canyon. Preliminary results show that gold is found only in the Horse Canyon breccia sample. Experimental details including other x-ray line… more

Possible Indication of an a-Dependence of R in Deep-Inelastic Electron Scattering From Nuclei

Description: Measurements of R for deuterium, He, Al, Fe and Au were made at Q/sup 2/ = 5 (GeV/c)/sup 2/ and x = 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7. An indication of a possible A-dependence of R has been found which would result in large differences among sigma/sup A//sigma/sup d/, F/sub 2//sup A//F/sub 2//sup d/ and F/sub 1//sup A//F/sub 1//sup d/. 7 references, 4 figures.

The classical EMC effect from few-body systems to nuclear matter: Can binding effects explain it

Description: It is shown that if the effects of nucleon binding on deep inelastic scattering are considered within many-body realistic descriptions of nuclei which include nucleon-nucleon correlations, the EMC effect in light and medium weight nuclei and nuclear matter can be accounted for in the region 0.2 {le} x {le} 0.5, but a systematic discrepancy between theory and experiment remains to be explained for 0.5 {le} x {le} 0.9.

The Emittances and Brightnesses of High-Intensity Negative Ion Sources

Description: The emittances of high-intensity ion beams extracted from cesium sputter negative ion sources equipped with cylindrical and ellipsoidal solid tungsten and spiral-wound tantalum (General Ionex Corporation, Model 860), and cesium surface ionizers have been measured for several ion species, including /sup 12/C/sup -/, /sup 28/Si/sup -/, /sup 58/Ni/sup -/, and /sup 197/Au/sup -/. While certain sets of data from the ellipsoidal and cylindrical geometry ionizer sources suggest a moderate growth in em… more

Emittance growth, tune shift, and the bunched-beam, bunched-beam interaction

Description: While it is understood that the main limitation of beam lifetime in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven is the emittance growth due to intra-beam scattering, it is important to evaluate and understand both the emittance growth and nature of the tune shift due to multiple beam-beam crossings of the bunched-beams of heavy ions. We note within RHIC, fully stripped /sup 197/Au ions (charge 79e/sup +/) will survive up to ten hours in the collider, with six beam crossings per rev… more

The heavy ion injection scheme for RHIC (Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider)

Description: The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven has a multi-component injection system. The Collider requires very heavy ions such as /sub 79//sup 197/Au to be injected fully stripped of atomic electrons, at a kinetic energy of approximately 10 GeV/nucleon. However, the heavy ions are produced initially at a negative ion source and accelerated first in a 15 MV Tandem. These partially stripped ions have a kinetic energy of approximately 1 MeV/nucleon on leaving the Tandem. In order to a… more

Resonance Integrals and Self-Shielding Factors for Detector Foils

Description: >Effective activation resonance integrals for thin and thick foils in an isotropic neutron flux were measured by a cadmium ratio method. Gold was used as a standard. Values obtained for dilute resonance integrals in barns, not including 1/v capture, were: Au/sup 197/, 1390 plus or minus 40 (Reference); U/ sup 238/ capture, 280 plus or minus 10; Cu/sup 63/, 3.17 plus or minus 0.18; Cu/sup 65/, 1.39 plus or minus 0.22; Mo/sup 98/, 9.9 plus or minus 1.1; Mo/sup 100/, 4.06 plus or minus 0.23; W/… more

Analysis Of Activation Measurements Of Th$sup 232$ Resonance Captures In The Peach Bottom (40-MW(E) Prototype HTGR) Critical Assembly

Description: Measurements of thorium resonance-capture activations relative to those of Au/sup 197/, which were made in the Peach Bottom (HTGR) critical assembly, are analyzed and compared with thorium resonance activations calculated from tabulated values of the resonance parameters. The new vanadium-subtraction method that was applied is shown to measure thorium resonance captures relative to those of Au/sup 197/ to within several per cent in this geometry. The measurements show that the lowest several re… more

Heavy Residue Spectra in the Interaction of 85 A MeV 12C with197Au

Description: We have measured the heavy residue differential range distributions in the interaction of 85 MeV/nucleon {sup 12}C with {sup 197}Au. The range distributions were converted to energy spectra using known range-energy relationships. The mean residue energies range from 15 keV/nucleon (A = 189) to 314 keV/nucleon (A = 131). Longitudinal momenta of the heavy residues have been deduced (<p{sub {parallel}} > /p{sub cn} = 0.27). The mean spectral energies and the shapes of the residue spectra are… more

Electron Transfer Processes in Collisions of Highly Charged Energetic (0.1 to 1.0 MeV/nucleon) Ions with Helium Atoms

Description: We have investigated charge transfer in collisions of energetic (0.1 - 1 MeV/nucleon) highly charged ions with helium atoms with the principal aim clarifying the nature of two-electron processes. The sensitivity of partial charge-changing cross sections (i.e., single- and double-charge transfer, transfer ionization (TI), and single and double ionization) to core configuration and scaling rules for one- and two-electron processes were investigated with iodine ions (q = 5+ ..-->.. 26+) and uraniu… more

The liquid to vapor phase transition in excited nuclei

Description: For many years it has been speculated that excited nuclei would undergo a liquid to vapor phase transition. For even longer, it has been known that clusterization in a vapor carries direct information on the liquid-vapor equilibrium according to Fisher's droplet model. Now the thermal component of the 8 GeV/c pion + 197 Au multifragmentation data of the ISiS Collaboration is shown to follow the scaling predicted by Fisher's model, thus providing the strongest evidence yet of the liquid to vapor… more

Electron cooling for RHIC

Description: Electron cooling of completely stripped gold ions {sup 197}Au{sup 79+} in RHIC is considered for the store energy, {gamma} = 108. The optimal parameters of the required electron storage ring are discussed and proposed. The cooling time is calculated as 15 minutes, which would allow not only to avoid the beam loss due to the intra-beam scattering, but also reduce the transverse emittance and increase the luminosity several times.

A method for neutron dosimetry in ultrahigh flux environments

Description: A method for neutron dosimetry in ultrahigh flux environments is developed, and devices embodying it are proposed and simulated using a Monte Carlo code. The new approach no longer assumes a linear relationship between the fluence and the activity of the nuclides formed by irradiation. It accounts for depletion of the original ``foil`` material and for decay and depletion of the formed nuclides. In facilities where very high fluences are possible, the fluences inferred by activity measurements … more
