Flexible cubic spline interpolation

Description: This report describes a simple, efficient, and flexible program for cubic spline interpolation in one dimension, suitable for inclusion in the ANL Subroutine Library and in an interactive timesharing system. Most of the cubic spline programs already available either restrict the boundary conditions to knowledge of the first derivative at both end points, or require the second derivatives to vanish at these points. The program described here removes these restrictions and enables the user to ado… more

Test of fixed-pipe distribution system for met-L-X dry powder fire extinguishers at EBR-II

Description: The Met-L-X storage unit and fixed-pipe system performed adequately, but the distribution provided by the nozzles as located is not satisfactory. Relocation of the nozzles does not appear to offer much promise for improvement because the number of nozzles required would necessitate a piping array nearly impossible to design or install around existing equipment. It would leave little room for equipment to be protected in a new installation. The tests reported did not address the question of whet… more

Measurement of the sigma^o Lifetime

Description: The Coulomb production of {Sigma}{sup 0} hyperons on uranium and nickel nuclei has been measured in a beam of {Lambda} hyperons at the CERN Proton Synchrotron. The results for the {Sigma}{sup 0} lifetime, {tau}{Sigma}{sup 0} = (0.58 {+-} 0.13) x 10{sup -19} sec, and for the {Sigma}{sup 0}-{Lambda} magnetic transition moment, |{mu}{Sigma}{sub {Lambda}}| = (1.82{sub -0.18}{sup +0.25}) nuclear magnetons, are in agreement with SU(3) predictions.

Proposal for (p,p) and (p,n) Collision Experiments at Batavia by Use of Nuclear Emulsions and Electronic Detectors

Description: In this project we propose to measure: (1) the elastic differential cross-sections of 100-500 GeV protons in (p,p) collisions by use of nuclear emulsions, and (2) the energy spectrum and d{sigma}/dEd{Omega} of the light fragments {sub 1}H{sup 2}, {sub 1}H{sup 3}, {sub 2}He{sup 3}, {sub 2}He{sup 4} in (p,N) collisions at the same energy range using the electronic E-{Delta}E detectors.

Review of high-temperature graphite irradiation behavior

Description: The irradiation behavior of reactor graphites at high temperatures (500/sup 0/ to 1400/sup 0/C) to high fluences (up to 4 x 10/sup 22/ n/cm/sup 2/) is reviewed. Recent data generated during the period 1965 through 1971 are emphasized. The review covers graphite manufacture, irradiation damage, dimensional and structural changes, thermal expansion, thermal conductivity, Young's modulus, strength, and irradiation-induced creep.
