Corrosion of aluminum cladding under optimized water conditions

Description: Experience at SRS, ORNL, BNL, and Georgia Institute of Technology involving irradiated aluminum clad fuel and target elements, as well as studies of non-irradiated aluminum indicate that some types of aluminum assemblies can be kept in a continually well-deionized water atmosphere for up to 25 years without problems. SRS experience ranges from 2.75 years for the L-1.1 charge kept in deionized D[sub 2]O[sup 1] to greater than 10 years for assemblies stored in the Receiving Basin for Off-site Fue… more

Radiolabeled androgens and progestins as imaging agents for tumors of the prostate and breast

Description: We are preparing progestins and androgens, labeled with the single photon emitters technetium-99m and rhenium-186 and the positron-emitting radionuclide fluorine-18. In both cases, ligands selected have very high affinity for the respective receptor, low affinity for blood and non-specific binders and to be reasonably resistant to metabolism: The progestins will be derivatives of the potent progestins ORG2058, norgestrel, RU486, and an unusual retroprogestin and the androgens will be derivative… more

Molecular biological enhancement of coal biodesulfurization

Description: Progress is reported in understanding Thiobacillus molecular biology, specifically in the area of vector development. At the initiation of this program, the basic elements needed for performing genetic engineering in T. ferrooxidans were either not yet developed. Improved techniques are described which will make it easier to construct and analyze the genetic structure and metabolism of recombinant T. ferrooxidans. The metabolism of the model organic sulfur compound dibenzothiophene (DBT) by cer… more

Advanced, soluble hydroliquefaction and hydrotreating catalysts

Description: Present hydroliquefaction of coal suffers from required high temperatures and high hydrogen pressures. Surface confined, organometallic catalysists are effective for hydrogenation and HDN of coal model compounds such as quinoline, but not of coal itself. Purpose of this program is to develop soluble analogs of surface confined catalysts that can be impregnated directly into the coal structure at low temperatures. The program consists of 3 major tasks: preparation of candidate HPA (heteropolyani… more

Exact calculations of phase and membrane equilibria for complex fluids by Monte Carlo simulation

Description: Objective is to develop molecular simulation techniques for phase equilibria in complex systems. The Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo method was extended to obtain phase diagrams for highly asymmetric and ionic fluids. The modified Widom test particle technique was developed for chemical potentials of long polymeric molecules, and preliminary calculations of phase behavior of simple model homopolymers were performed.

Flowsheet report for baseline actinide blanket processing for accelerator transmutation of waste

Description: We provide a flowsheet analysis of the chemical processing of actinide and fission product materials form the actinide blanket of an accelerator-based transmutation concept. An initial liquid ion exchange step is employed to recover unburned plutonium and neptunium, so that it can be returned quickly to the transmitter. The remaining materials, consisting of fission products and trivalent actinides (americium, curium), is processed after a cooling period. A reverse Talspeak process is employed … more

Reasons for the removal of Tevatron dipoles from the tunnel: A summary

Description: The commissioning of the Tevatron was completed in 1983 and immediately, thereafter the experimental physics program began. The initial program involved using the Tevatron, first at 400GeV and then at 800GeV to supply beam for fixed target experiments. Beginning in 1985 the collider program has alternated with the fixed target program. The collider program runs with 900GeV protons and anti-protons. In the period since 1983, in addition to providing beam for the High Energy Physics program, we h… more

Tip-tilt compensation: Resolution limits for ground-based telescopes using laser guide star adaptive optics. Revision 2

Description: The angular resolution of long-exposure images from ground-based telescopes equipped with laser guide star adaptive optics systems is fundamentally limited by the the accuracy with which the tip-tilt aberrations introduced by the atmosphere can be corrected. Assuming that a natural star is used as the tilt reference, the residual error due to tilt anisoplanatism can significantly degrade the long-exposure resolution even if the tilt reference star is separated from the object being imaged by a … more

Verification and validation of TMAP4

Description: The Tritium Migration Analysis Program MODl/CY04 (TMAP4) was written to be used in analyzing experiments and for safety calculations that involve the injection, solution, diffusion, trapping, release, and other related processes experienced by hydrogen isotopes in materials. Because of the desire to make it suitable for analyzing safety issues, it is important that TMAP4 be certified (verified and validated) at Quality Assurance Level A. This report documents the work done to achieve that certi… more
