Acceleration of Polarized Proton in RHIC

Description: In this report is examined the possibility of polarized proton in RHIC collider. The issues needed for the future study is also discussed. With the improved source and AGS booster, its is expected that the luminosity for polarized beam could be 0.4*10^32/cm^2/sec at energy of 250 Gev in RHIC. There we need 4 snakes and 4 spin rotators in the collider.

Advanced direct coal liquefaction. Quarterly technical progress report No. 1, September-November 1983

Description: Wyoming subbituminous coal was liquefied using three different two-stage process configurations in bench-scale tests. These process configurations differed in the type of fractionated deashing resid being recycled to the individual stages. The objective of these runs was to determine whether, by recycle of specific resid streams to the thermal stage, the second stage catalyst life could be improved without detrimentally affecting distillate yield or hydrogen consumption. The results indicate th… more

Beam propagation in the frequency-converted subsystems of Nova and Novette

Description: An analysis of beam propagation for the frequency converted Nova/Novette systems is given and self-focusing effects are reviewed. It is shown that the nonlinear growth of beam modulation produced by self-focusing is proportional 1/2 exp B where B is the intensity dependent phase retardation (measured in radians) accumulated by the beam. This exponential growth of beam modulation in the baseline frequency conversion/focusing optical train limits the system performance for short pulse (tau < 2 ns… more

CC-EC Transporter Analysis

Description: The following calculations were used to develop a structure required to transport completed calorimeters (CC-EC) from the assembly area to a staging point for installation onto center beam. The transporter is equipped with four (4) 200 ton hydraulic cylinders and four (4) 200 ton capacity Hillman Rollers. The components are used for the lifting and moving of calorimeters. R. Wands is doing the Ansys analysis based on 2 conditions: (1) Statically loaded on the transporter support corner; and (2)… more

Central Calorimeter Thermal Gradient Module Connection Analysis

Description: Two 20 kW condensing and one 10 kW steady state cooling coils will be used to cool and condense gaseous argon in the Central Calorimeter (CC) Cryostat. Since this cool down (300K to 90K) will inevitably cause shrinkage in the modules contained inside the cryostat, the connections between the modules have to be designed to withstand the increase in forces and moments induced by this contraction. This paper presents finite element analysis (ANSYS{reg_sign}) results to aid in the design or modific… more

Characterization of the solid product(s) formed when UF/sub 6/ is released into ambient air in a contained volume (U)

Description: Preliminary characterization of the plume or cloud produced by the release of UF/sub 6/ into humid air and the particulates comprising this cloud has been accomplished. The explosive release was conducted in a vessel in which the air at atmospheric pressure was static and the particulate material was collected on microscope grids by gravitational settling. Transmission and Scanning Electron Microscopy (TEM and SEM) have been used to determine the size or range of sizes of the particles produced… more

Cost effectiveness of long life incandescent lamps and energy buttons

Description: Long-life replacement lamps for the incandescent lamp have been evaluated with regard to their cost effectiveness. The replacements include the use of energy buttons that extend lamp life as well as an adaptive fluorescent circline lamp that will fit into existing incandescent lamp sockets. The initial, operating, and replacement costs for one million lumen hours are determined for each lamp system. It is found that the most important component lighting cost is the operating cost. Using lamps t… more

Description: The initial design of a microwave calorimeter for the Microwave Tokamak Experiment is presented. The design is optimized to measure the refraction and absorption of millimeter rf microwaves as they traverse the toroidal plasma of the Alcator C tokamak. Techniques utilized can be adapted for use in measuring high intensity pulsed output from a microwave device in an environment of ultra high vacuum, intense fields of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation and intense magnetic fields. 16 refs.

Design of the D0 overpass dispersion correction

Description: The existing D0 overpass induces a vertical dispersion wave around the Main ring with dispersion amplitudes of around 1.6 to 1.8 m. There are two major reasons to eliminate or reduce vertical dispersion induced by the D0 overpass: to lower the beam momentum dependence on vertical positions which had not existed before the overpass; and to raise the Tevatron luminosity by eliminating the dispersion mismatch between the main Ring and Tevatron. 20 figs., 1 tab.

Development of magnetic mirror systems for nuclear testing applications

Description: Several system studies have concluded that the small size and steady state nature of magnetic mirror systems provide attractive features for nuclear-testing applications. The principle shortcoming of mirror systems is their small data base relative to that of tokamaks. This paper summarizes the present data base and describes experiments that could be carried out with small modifications of existing facilities to explore plasma physics issues associated with the production of high neutron fluxe… more
