Isotope applications in the environmental field

Description: Established uses of enriched isotopes in the environmental field were surveyed to determine future trends in isotope needs. Based on established isotope uses, on the projected increase in the pollution problem, and on the apparent social and economic pressure for pollution abatement, a significant demand for enriched isotopes appears to be developing for the assessment and control of air, water, and soil pollutants. Isotopic techniques will be used in combination with conventional methods of de… more

Fiscal year 1977 DT fusion neutron irradiations and dosimetry at the LLL Rotating Target Neutron Source, October 26, 1977

Description: The DT fusion neutron irradiation of 352 samples during 16 irradiation periods (beam-on time of more than 1219 hours) is described. Experiments from 16 individuals representing eight institutions are summarized. Maximum flux in any of the room temperature runs was 9 x 10'' neutrons/cm/sup 2/-sec for an 80 hour irradiation. The number of the UCID dosimetry reports detailing each of the irradiations are given.

Automation of the Jarrell--Ash model 70-314 emission spectrometer

Description: Automation of the Jarrell-Ash 3.4-Meter Ebert direct-reading emission spectrometer with digital scaler readout is described. The readout is interfaced to a Data General NOVA 840 minicomputer. The automation code consists of BASIC language programs for interactive routines, data processing, and report generation. Call statements within the BASIC programs invoke assembly language routines for real-time data acquisition and control. In addition, the automation objectives as well as the spectromete… more

Exploratory research, Tasks A, B, C, and D. Final report, August 17-December 31, 1977

Description: SRI International has conducted research on the upgrading of computerized thermo-hydro code calculations and the synthesis of energetic materials. This project comprised four tasks, as follows: Task A included: (1) formulating routines for inverting the P = P(T,V) and V = V(T,P) equations of state when isotherms exhibit a van der Waals' loop; (2) incorporating these routines into the TIGER code so V and T can be used as independent variables in computing thermodynamic functions of liquids exhib… more

Description: The program has progressed to the final assembly of the recharging system on the Czochralski furnace. All components are in place and functional, and the modified furnace is being tested prior to the start of process development. The feasibility of a 100 kg continuous growth process has been demonstrated by a recharge simulation comprising six melt/pull cycles with a single 20 kg charge; the total body length was 249 cm (98 inch) with a calculated mass of 106 kg. Growth conditions were maintain… more
