End stoppering in mirror machines

Description: Like toroidal confinement, confinement by a potential barrier offers the possibility of unlimited Q if the barrier is good enough. For a barrier height PHI, approximately tau approximately equal to tau/sub collision/ exp PHI/T/sub i/. These notes review previous ideas about how to establish a potential barrier at the ends of a mirror machine and we also discuss a different possibility using mirror confinement itself to establish a barrier utilizing the positive ambipolar potential characteristi… more

Particle and x-ray energy measurements in laser-plasma interaction experiments

Description: The energy carried by particles and low energy x-rays resulting from irradiation of targets with .5 to 1 TW, 1.06 ..mu..m lasers has been measured. The energy distributions were obtained from measurements at discrete locations using calorimeters and work is in progress to obtain them over a hemisphere with a thermal imaging system. Azimuthal symmetry and polar distributions for different focusing schemes have been determined. The data have been integrated to obtain the absorbed energy and these… more

Field-reversed mirror as a D-T power reactor

Description: The Field-Reversed-Mirror is a plasma confinement scheme which uses the diamagnetic current of the D-T fuel plasma to convert the open field pattern of a conventional mirror machine into a closed-field pattern with plasma confinement properties which are expected to be considerably improved. If realized, this improvement in confinement will considerably improve the energy gain of the mirror reactor, and result in a reduction in the cost of producing energy. The Field Reversed Mirror device is d… more

Statistical study of the strength of near-isotropic graphite

Description: More than 2000 tensile and four-point bend tests were made at ambient temperature on specimens from one log of extruded near-isotropic petroleum-coke-based nuclear graphite (Great Lakes Carbon Corporation grade H-451). The mean strengths showed the expected systematic dependence on orientation and location, with axial specimens stronger than radial specimens and material near the edge of the log stronger than material near the centerline. There were additional local fluctuations in strength whi… more

Hanford long-term high-level waste management program

Description: An overview of the Hanford Long-Term High-Level Waste Management Program is presented. Four topics are discussed: first, the kinds and quantities of waste that will exist and are included in this program; second, how the plan is structured to solve this problem; third, the alternative waste management methods being considered; and fourth, the technology program that is in progress to carry out this plan.

Instrumentation for measuring soft x-rays from laser produced plasmas

Description: Instrumentation has been developed at the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory for measuring subkilovolt x-rays from laser-produced plasmas. This information is needed to do a complete energy balance on laser fusion experiments. The instruments must have thin windows and yet discriminate against the severe environment of other intense target emissions such as ions, electrons, and scattered laser light. Low energy x-ray measurements down to 0.1 keV will be presented using these absolutely calibrated de… more

Thermal decomposition and reaction of confined explosives. [TNT, TATB, LX-04, LX-10]

Description: Some new experiments designed to accurately determine the time interval required to produce a reactive event in confined explosives subjected to temperatures which will cause decomposition are described. Geometry and boundary conditions were both well defined so that these experiments on the rapid thermal decomposition of HE are amenable to predictive modelling. Experiments have been carried out on TNT, TATB and on two plastic-bonded HMX-based high explosives, LX-04 and LX-10. When the results … more

Performance test of a bladeless turbine for geothermal applications

Description: The Possell bladeless turbine was tested at the LLL Geothermal Test Facility to evaluate its potential for application in the total flow process. Test description and performance data are given for 3000, 3500, 4000, and 4500 rpm. The maximum engine efficiency observed was less than 7 percent. It is concluded that the Possell turbine is not a viable candidate machine for the conversion of geothermal fluids by the total flow process. (LBS)

Effects of density gradient modification on fluid instability in thermonuclear micro-implosions

Description: The presence of hydrodynamic fluid instability at the ablation surface puts constraints on the kinds of targets, surface finish, and energy sources that one can use for thermonuclear micro-implosions. If Taylor-like modes grow at near the classical value, one is limited to low aspect ratio shells and surface finishes of 10-100 A. These surface finish requirements can be reduced by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude by exploiting density gradient modification techniques to obtain a shallow density gradi… more

Measurement of the K/sup -/p. -->. anti K/sup 0/n total cross section below 1 GeV/c. [500-1050 MeV/c]

Description: The total cross section for the reaction K/sup -/p ..-->.. anti K/sup 0/n was measured between 500 and 1050 MeV/c in steps of 10 MeV/c. The experiment was performed at the Brookhaven AGS using a negative kaon beam focused onto a 41 cm long liquid hydrogen target. The target was surrounded by a box of scintillation counters which detected and vetoed all charged final states. The charged particle veto box was in turn surrounded by a box of lead-scintillator sandwich shower counters. These counter… more

Reduced update Kalman filter: a two-dimensional recursive processor

Description: The Kalman filtering method is extended to two-dimensions. The resulting computational load is found to be excessive. The reduced update Kalman filter is derived. It is shown to be optimum in that it minimizes the post update mean square error (mse) under the constraint of updating only the nearby previously processed neighbors. The resulting filter is a stable, nonsymmetric half-plane recursive filter. This method is proposed as a solution of the 2-D filter design problem for stochastic dynami… more
