Nucleon-Meson Cascade Calculations: Transverse Shielding for a 45-Gev Electron Accelerator (Part III)

Description: In two previous reports nucleon-meson cascade calculations were carried out for several cases of interest in the design of the transverse shield for the proposed 45-Bev linear electron accelerator at Stanford University. Results are now given for two additional cases. (auth)

Chemical Processing Technology Quarterly Progress Report, October-December 1961

Description: The ICPP processed Al fuel, prtncipally of the MTR-ETR type, durtng this quarter. Newly designed and installed processing equipment exhibited excellent operating performance. This included direct-air-pulsed extraction, stripping and scrub columns, and a cascade-controlled continuous evaporator in first cycle product concentration service. Aqueous zirconium fuel processing studies continued with the objective of adapting the hydrofluoric acid process to continuous dissolution-complexing to incre… more

An Improved Nuclear Measuring Principle : Quarterly Progress Report No. 3 Covering the Period from December 1, 1959 to March 1, 1960

Description: This report is the third in a series of quarterly reports discussing the concept and progression of an improved method in nuclear measuring than the usage of the scintillation counter. This report indicates that in a chopped double beam system, commutation of the detector current permits selection of optimum response time and size of radioactive sources.

AN IMPROVED NUCLEAR MEASURING PRINCIPLE. Quarterly Progress Report No. 3 Covering the Period from December 1, 1959 to March 1, 1960

Description: The scintillation counter has proven to be a very valuable research tool, but urfortunately, its ability to meet necessary stability requirements has restricted its use in industrial applications. Several techniques are being investigated which cancel out reasonable variations in detector sensitivity, resulting in improved stability. The general technique consists of alternately measuring the intensity transmitted through the sample and through a calibrated absorber, and difference in intensity… more

Purex Plant flowsheet for high capacity study

Description: This report contains a flowsheet which was prepared to serve as a guide for an engineering study to be made to determine the costs and revisions required to increase the capacity of the Purex Plant to a 4.0 capacity factor. The needs for such a study are outlined in documents HW-62952 (Ref. 1) and HW-63927 (Ref. 2), which include increased 100 Area production forecasts and maximizing Palm recovery by continuous recovery equipment as primary factors. The flowsheet, shown graphically on the flows… more

Relocation of radial enrichment at the K reactors to decrease enrichment inventory

Description: The enrichment inventory required in the Hanford reactors is greatly dependent on the location of the radial enrichment ring. Present and past philosophy has dictated that the radial enrichment be located as close to the periphery of the reactors as possible, consistent with total control criteria, to obtain maximum flattening efficiency. As long as individual tube power limits dictate total pile power this philosophy of maximum flattening is consistent with a goal of maximum production. For th… more

Resume of KER Loop irradiation tests for 1957, 1958, and 1959

Description: In 1957 three of the four high temperature recirculating loops in KE Reactor were put into service and in 1958 the fourth loop was started up. The primary purpose of the loops has been high temperature irradiation testing of fuel elements in support of the NPR fuel element development program, although tests have been run to provide information for PRTR fuel development and high temperature aluminum corrosion programs. Coolant technology studies relating to activity build-up, crude formation, c… more

Some Observations Regarding Rare-Earth Lactates

Description: From abstract: "Lactates of all the rare earths except lanthanum, cerium, and praseodymium were prepared and studied. In the case of lanthanum, cerium, and praseodymium the lactates are apparently so soluble that they cannot be crystallized directly from aqueous solution. Products obtained by addition of anhydrous ethanol to sirupy solutions of the light-rare-earth lactates were not well characterized and were deliquescent. Neodymium lactate trihydrate was prepared only by the addition of alcoh… more
