HFBR: Review of the technical specifications against the FSAR

Description: The purpose of this review is to determine the adequacy of the High Flux Beam Reactor (HFBR) Technical Specifications for 40 MW operation by comparison with the HFBR Final Safety Analysis Report, particularly the accident analyses chapter. Specifically, the Technical Specifications were compared against the Design Basis Accident (DBA) Analyses presented in the Addendum to the HFBR FSAR for 60 MW Operation. The 60 MW DBA analyses was used since it is more current and complete than the analyses p… more

An expression of interest in a Super Fixed Target Beauty Facility (SFT) at the Superconducting Super Collider

Description: The concept of a Super Fixed Target Beauty Facility (SFT) which uses a relatively low intensity 20 TeV proton beam as a generator of very high momenta B's is an exciting prospect which is very competitive with other B factory ideas. The yields of B's in such a facility are quite high (3 {times} 10{sup 10} {yields} 10{sup 11} B's per year). At this level of statistics, CP violation measurements will be possible in many modes. In addition, the fixed target configuration, because of the high momen… more

Molecular iodine absolute frequencies. Final report

Description: Fifty specified lines of {sup 127}I{sub 2} were studied by Doppler-free frequency modulation spectroscopy. For each line the classification of the molecular transition was determined, hyperfine components were identified, and one well-resolved component was selected for precise determination of its absolute frequency. In 3 cases, a nearby alternate line was selected for measurement because no well-resolved component was found for the specified line. Absolute frequency determinations were made w… more

FY90 milestone report for the CIT (Compact Ignition Tokamak) project: Localizability of electron-cyclotron heating power

Description: Estimates of the localizability of electron-cyclotron heating power are made for the Compact Ignition Tokamak. A particular heating scenario is examined, namely, the fundamental O-mode, injected nearly perpendicular to the toroidal magnetic field. The absorption depth due to finite T{sub e} is very small, about 1 cm, near the q = 2 surface. Absorption is even better localized near q = 1. Several issues that might lead to degraded localizability are reviewed. Use of an intense, pulsed microwave … more

Shot report, Holo-17-Holo-22 Rex-9

Description: We report on a series of holographic shots using explosives to generate ejecta from lead. These experiments covered a range of geometries including point initiation and plane wave initiation for the H.E., and using a gas-fill in the cavity where the ejecta was produced. The final experiment, Rex-9 was a Fabry-Perot experiment at Site 300 which provided the velocity history of the lead surface for the purpose of normalizing the code being used to calculate the position of the lead surface in the… more

D-Zero Central Calorimeter Pressure Vessel and Vacuum Vessel Safety Notes

Description: The relief valve and relief piping capacity was calculated to be 908 sefm air. This exceeds all relieving conditions. The vessel also has a rupture disc with a 2640 scfm air stamped capacity. In order to significantly decrease the amount of time required to fill the cryostats, it is desired to raise the setpoint of the 'operating' relief valve on the argon storage dewar to 20 psig from its existing 16 psig setting. This additional pressure increases the flow to the cryostats and will overwhelm … more

Pump Outs, General and D0 Considerations

Description: Seal Pump Outs (PO) are provided by specifically designing and providing redundant, or double, seals to create an annular volume that can be '(vacuum) pumped out' to test the integrity of both seals. The value of the technique is most readily apparent in the construction of large piping systems or vessels whose closure is on a different schedule than the nozzle closures, or whose nozzles are serially closed. In the case of D0, for instance, the high voltage boxes were put in place and leak chec… more

D0 Silicon Upgrade: End Calorimeter Transfer Bridge Design and Installation Procedures

Description: The North Endcap Calorimeter (NEC) is to be moved from the clean room to the north sidewalk in preparation for the final installation on the DO detector center beam. In order to make this move, the cable bridge must be 'flattened' and the NEC lifted to move over it. The detector is moved west, approximately 24 feet, while the moveable counting house remains stationary. This movement allows the cable bridge to 'flatten' i.e. become horizontal. The cable bridge lowering is steadied and stabilized… more
