A 2D fluid model of the DC planar magnetron cathode

Description: This model finds the plasma density distribution, n(x,y), and the positive electrical potential, {phi}{sub {infinity}}, between the surface of a planar magnetron cathode and a distant, uniform plasma. The intended application is for parameter studies of gas discharges in the range of 1--100 mTorr, which are often used as sputtering sources. The primary results are formulas which show how the spatial variation of the magnetic field, B(x,y), shapes the plasma density and influences the potential,… more

ANALYSIS OF TANK 48H SAMPLE HTF-E-05-021

Description: Due to the need for additional HLW storage, successful disposition of the material in Tank 48H and return of the tank to routine service are two critically needed activities. As an initial step in the process, SRNL compositionally characterized the components of the Tank 48H slurry. Previously, a Tank 48H slurry sample was collected on August 23, 2004 (HTF-E-04-049 and HTF-E-04-050). The August 23, 2004 sample contained approximately 2 Liters of Tank 48H slurry. In December 7, 2004, Tank farm p… more

Analytical investigation of flow through high-speed mixed-flow turbine

Description: From Introduction: "Good experimental correlation of the analytical results was obtained for the compressor even though isentropic flow and axial symmetry were assumed (reference 1). In order to determine the flow through the turbine being investigated, however, it was necessary to extend the method of reference 1 to include the flow downstream of the rooter since the large blade taper and hub-shroud curvature caused downstream conditions which affected the flow inside the rotor."

Annual Report of the International Nuclear Research Initiative Osmose Project (FY05).

Description: The goal of the OSMOSE program is to measure the reactivity effect of minor actinides in known neutron spectra of interest to the Generation-IV reactor program and other programs and to create a database of these results for use as an international benchmark for the minor actinides. The results are then compared to calculational models to verify and validate integral absorption cross-sections for the minor actinides. The OSMOSE program includes all aspects of the experimental program -- includi… more

Aquifer tests near the Idaho Falls Foothills, Idaho

Description: Ground water pumping tests were performed in two wells located in the foothills east of Idaho Falls to determine the aquifer characteristics at these locations. These data were used to differentiate this aquifer from the Snake River Plain aquifer. The wells were pumped at rates of 11 and 14 gallons per minute with 0.03 and 0.04 ft of drawdown measured in the pumping wells. The transmissivity is estimated to be 525,000 gpd/ft and 450,000 gpd/ft, respectively. The hydraulic conductivity is 925 ft… more

Atomic coherence created by a pulsed dye laser

Description: Level population as a function of laser pulse envelope area for an atom which could be approximated as a two level system was measured. An ideal two-level system under the action of an oscillating force is one of a few quantum mechanical systems for which the time-dependent Schroedinger equation can be solved exactly. The solution predicts that the population of the upper state, for a system which was entirely in the lower state at t = 0, varies as sin/sup 2/A, where A = ..integral../sub 0//sup… more
