Leak repair of the 107-D effluent retention basin

Description: This document discusses the leak repair of the 107-D retention basin. Leakage of effluent water from the 107-D Basin had increased from 6000 gallons per minute in November of 1959 to the peak of 8000 gallons per minute in April of 1963. Washout of fines had apparently created large voids beneath the north and west walls and endangered the integrity of the structure by settling the wall 2 in. at one place. The leakage was arrested in March of 1963 by filling the voids with concrete and grout and… more

Radioisotopic heat sources. Revision 1

Description: For the radioisotopes with half-lives over a year, only eight appear to be obtainable in the foreseeable future. The fission products, strontium-90, cesium-137, and promethium-147, exist in wastes from reactor processing, diluted with enormous volumes of other elements and salts. Among those isotopes producible by irradiation of special target materials (cobalt-60, uranium-232, plutonium-238, and curium-244) cobalt-60, though easy to produce, requires a special design for the heat source genera… more

Activation of electrical machinery. Supplement 1. [Preliminary evaluation; not applicable to ground tests]

Description: The following analysis of the induced radioactivity in SNAP-50/SPUR electrical machinery having a high cobalt content is submitted. Induced radioactivity in the flight vehicle will contribute negligibly to allowable radiation levels. This is especially so due to the low neutron to gamma ratio of assumed radiation damage tolerances to semiconductors. A calculation to estimate the order of magnitude of induced radioactivity in cobalt is attached. The calculation is based on a best guess of the ne… more
