Electrical Parameters of Precision, Coaxial, Air-dielectric Transmission Lines

Description: From Introduction: "Following the guidelines established by this committee, several commercially developed precision connectors have appeared on the market which have led to the wide use of the precision coaxial lines as immittance standards. This paper has been prepared to alleviate this situation by providing graphs from which the electrical parameters of the lines may be determined rapidly and accurately."

Effect of negative pions on the proliferative capacity of ascites tumor cells (lymphoma) grown in vivo

Description: We have attempted to determine the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of negative pions in the Bragg-peak region as compared to the plateau region and to gamma rays. We irradiated LAF{sub 1} mice, bearing 5-day-old lymphoma ascites tumors, in the peak and plateau regions of a 90-MeV pion beam for 40 hours in temperature-controlled holders. The animals were then sacrificed; lymphoma cells were withdrawn and titrated into adult female LAF{sub 1} mice. The proliferative capacity of the irradi… more

Richland five-year O2 R and D Program: Nuclear safety

Description: While the safety status of the Richland facilities has in the past been deemed adequate, all aspects of nuclear technology have progressed and evolved including standards of nuclear safety. Hence, the national nuclear safety environment within which the Richland facilities are operated is grossly different now than was the case ten years ago; a commensurate change can be expected in the future. Further, the urgency of national security aspects of Hanford operation seems less acute now than in t… more

Semiannual research and development report, Douglas United Nuclear, Inc.

Description: Initially the O2 Research and Development Program for Douglas United Nuclear, Inc., for FY 1966 was contained in six 189-forms R-1 through R-4 and M-1 and M-2. Although the authors are currently in a period of transition to the Five Year Research and Development Program, this document reports on the programs as originally set forth. The subprograms designated by R pertain to reactor research and development, and those designated by M pertain to metallurgy or fuels research and development. The … more

Richland Five-year 02 R&D Program

Description: This program is directed to the production of higher weight plutonium isotopes and transplutonium isotopes from the irradiation of transuranic elements, particularly plutonium. Since production of Pu-238 from the irradiation of Np-237 and Am-241 is the subject of Mission 4, Pu-238 Program, it is excluded from this Mission. Specific products which are of prime interest are Cm-244 and plutonium containing a high concentration of either the Pu-240 isotope or the Pu-242 isotope. Because of the pote… more

Richland five-year O2 R and D Program: Target space enhancement

Description: This document contains the reports of progress and the plans for future work of Douglas United Nuclear, Inc., on the Target Space Enhancement Mission. The DUN research and development program is based on a long-range operating plan which recognizes a continuing need for the production of special nuclear materials in AEC facilities. Among these expected needs are increased requirements for non-defense plutonium, tritium, and other isotopes. The purpose of the target space enhancement mission is … more

Richland five-year O2 R and D Program: Enriched fuel processing

Description: In anticipation of a continuing trend for reductions in military plutonium requirements, reactor programs at the Richland site are being directed toward other long-term production objectives. For the general case of an alternate reactor product, uranium-238 would be displaced from the reactor by another target material, e.g., lithium (for tritium production) or neptunium-237 (for plutonium-238 production), and the remaining fuel would require higher enrichment (increase of uranium-235 concentra… more

Proposal for elimination of 100 percent inspection for uranium grain size

Description: Uranium cores have a grain size specification of A8 to A3. Large grain size is denoted by a small ``A`` number and small grain by larger ``A`` numbers. Grain sizes smaller than A9 denote an untransformed core which presumably has a high rupture potential. Grain sizes larger than A3 cause swelling, or bumping, of the fuel thus increasing the probability of rupture failure. Presently, tests are made on all cores received to determine compliance to the above specifications. As a result of a recent… more
