The Arab Oil Embargo and Its Impact on Winter Fuel Shortages

Description: This report discusses U.S. demand for fuel oil in the winter months and the effects of the Arab Oil Embargo on current and potential shortages of oil. Policy options and alternative fuel options are also discussed.

Eccentric rf deflecting structure

Description: For superconducting rf separators, assembled by electron beam welding techniques, two types of mode stabilizers are discussed: the elliptical structure, and a new design called the eccentric structure''. For an operating pi /2 or pi mode in the lower pass band, it is shown that the various parameters of the eccentric structure can be adjusted to provide the required frequency spacing between the operating mode and the upper dispersion curve.

Geothermal Energy Program. Subpanel Report VIII Used in Preparing the AEC Chairman's Report to the President

Description: Only one resource type is presently being used to produce power in the U. S.--dry steam generating 400 MWe at The Geysers near Santa Rosa, California. Six other types --brines at high temperature and low salinity, high temperature and high salinity, low temperature and low salinity, and in geopressured reservoirs, plus dry hot rock at shallow depth and in deep, normal-gradient formations -- are potentially available for economic energy recovery. The program plan calls for a government budgetary… more

Hazards review for electrolytic dissolver installation, Hood 3, 236-Z Building

Description: A comparison of the hazards involved in the existing process and the electrolytic process for dissolving plutonium metal shows that, in the opinion of the review team, no net increase in hazards will occur by operating the electrolytic dissolvers. This new process eliminates several hazardous operations such as metal burning and PuO/sub 2/ powder handling, and reduces operator time and, therefore, exposure. The new facility can be operated safely provided that the recommendations given previous… more

Relationship between the beam--beam tune shift and the number of interaction regions

Description: The choice of the beam-beam tune shift for one interaction region (the beam-beam limit) is discussed. The effect of multiple crossings is then included. Bccause of radiation damping for electrons, these considerations are quite different for protons and electrons. Both are treated. (auth)

TART calculations using the new 2021 energy group cross section library compared with B. Czirr's resonance self-shielding experiments

Description: Results from calculations using a 2021-energy-group cross section library with sufficient energy definition in the lower energy range to resolve the known resorances in /sup 239/Pu and /sup 235/U are compared with flat-plate resorance self-shielding experimental data. The results are somewhat ambiguous. The lower energy ranges appear to agree better with experimental data for small areal densities, but disagree more as the areal density increases.

Tensile properties of bare-rolled ingot-sheet beryllium from room temperature to 800$sup 0$C

Description: Tensile properties of bare-rolled ingot-sheet beryllium from room temperature to 800 deg C are reported. While strength values show a steady decrease above room temperature, tensile elongations exhibit peaks at approximately 300 and 700 deg C. The strainhardening exponent varies with temperature and amount of strain, and ranges between approximately 0.10 and 0.26. Metallographic examinations reveal cleavage fracture at the lower temperatures, accompanied by severe grain deformation above room t… more

Understanding resonance self-shielding effects with the help of a simplified cross-section model

Description: Recent TART Monte Carlo calculations have shown discrepancies with F number measurements, as well as with measurements of fission density in /sup 235/ U and /sup 239/PU plates. These discrepancies have been attributed to the fact that the group-averaged TART cross sections cannot properly treat resorance self- shielding effects, because the width of TART groups is large compared with the width of cross-section resonances. This report attempts to explain the observed discrepancies with the help … more
