Automatic Scanning And Measuring Of Bubble Chamber Photographs

Description: The development of high-energy charged particle accelerators such as the Bevatron and of improved nuclear-event detection devices such as the Berkeley 72-in. hydrogen bubble chamber has greatly increased the need for high-speed data reduction of nuclear events. Full exploitation of the potential of the 72-in. bubble chamber demands a very high-speed analysis system. This paper describes an approach to such a system.

Sequential Separation of Some Actinide Elements By Anion Exchange

Description: The methods for the separation of the elements from thorium to americium having wide use are those employing solvent extraction techniques (1) (2). During recent years the behavior of these elements on anion exchangers has been studied, resulting in the wide application of these resins to the separation of the actinides (3) (4) (5) (6) (7).

Portland Cement Grout Vapor Pressure- Temperature Test

Description: The instability of the steel tank bottom of 113SX waste storage tank was postulated to have been caused by a pressure underneath the steel liner which was in excess of the hydrostatic liquid load of the waste resting on the steel bottom.

Reactor Heat Transfer by Boiling Mercury- 204

Description: In HW-56161(1), the preliminary background, bases, and advantages which could be visualized in the study and establishment of reactor concepts utilizing boiling mercury- 204 were presented. The attractive chemical and metallurgical properties of mercury which make it particularly suitable for use in special non-rigid fuel systems as well as its potential for heat transfer applications were considered to be of significant interest to the Plutonium Recycle Program also, since the issuance of the … more

A Study for the Feasibility for the Large Sale Recovery of Ionium (Thorium-230) from the Uranium Ore Milling Industry in the United States

Description: Over the past ten years, there has been considerable interest and expenditure on the recovery of ionium (thorium-230) from certain residues accumulated from the World War II uranium process at St. Louis, Missouri. Most of these efforts were reported in the classified literature. However, an unclassified report was issued recently by the Mallinckrodt Chemical Works on the plant design for ionium recovery. A review of the earlier efforts shows that consideration of ionium recovery was limited to… more

Coupled Transmission Lines

Description: In a discussion about design of cyclotron resonators, the suggestion has been made that a wide range variable-frequency system might be constructed with two coupled resonant circuits. It also would present the possibility of tuning without the switching of high-current contacts, a troublesome item now commonly used for cyclotrons. One of the circuits would be the dee and its stem which might, or might not, be tuned. The second circuit could be located out of the magnet gap in a region where mo… more

The Effect of Crystallite Size on the Bulk Density and Strength Properties of Uranium Dioxide Specimens

Description: Fused uranium dioxide was separated into fractions of varying particle size by air separation. Specimens of the nominal size of 1/8 by 1/4 by 1½ in. were formed by hydrostatic pressing, firing, and lapping. Specimens prepared from the 0 to 5 μ fraction were the strongest and most dense. The room-temperature density was about 92% of theoretical and the room-temperature flexural strength was about 12,000 1b. per sq. in. When tested at 1000°C., the strength was about 18,000 1b. per sq. in. The fle… more
