Analysis of Delayed Neutrons

Description: Calculations for analysis of delayed neutrons. A delayed neutron is a neutron released not immediately during a nuclear fission event, but shortly afterward—ranging from milliseconds to several minutes later. These neutrons are emitted by excited daughter nuclei of certain beta-decaying fission products. Delayed neutrons are critically important for controlling nuclear reactors. Their delayed appearance allows for a slower, more manageable response in reactor power changes, significantly enhanc… more

Reduction of Radioactive Waste to Solids for Ultimate Storage

Description: A procedure is presented for processing high level radioactive wastes. The steps are: pot calcination of acid and neutral waste followed by separation by distillation of the fission products from effluent liquid and gaseous streams. The fission products would be recycled to the calcination pot. After calcination, the pot contents would be stored in a controlled area for cooling and accountability.

Waste Treatment and Disposal Problems of the Future Nuclear Power Industry

Description: The elements of waste treatment and disposal are assessed which are expected to become important in the development of the nuclear power industry of the future. Growth of the nuclear power economy is considered along with composition and quantities of anticipated waste. In addition the economic implications of waste disposal are considered. It is concluded that research should be concentrated on decontaminating off gases and on conversion of wastes to a more suitable form than liquid for storag… more

Thorex Pilot Plant ; System for Concentrating Second Uranium Cycle Product

Description: A system for concentrating uranyl nitrate solutions was designed and installed in the Thorex Pilot Plant. A total of 16,060 g of uranium was concentrated in the system in 68 batch runs. A total of 14,400 g total uranium (14.180 g U/sup 233/) was recovered as product suitable for shipment. Uranium loss to the evaporator condensate was 0.03% of the total uranium processed. The material balance across the system was 98.4%. The average concentration of uranium in the evaporator feed solution was 29… more

Large-Volume Liquid Scintillators and Their Applications

Description: One of the most important factors in determining the feasibility of a cosmic ray experiment is the expected counting rate. We feel that in some cases the gain in counting rate from the use of a large scintillator will be great enough to make its construction worthwhile.

The Decontamination of Reactor Cooling Water with Aluminum

Description: The discharge of cooling water from the Hanford reactors introduce radioactive contaminants to the Columbia River. These materials may subsequently bring about exposure to human populations either through the direct use of the water for sanitary purposes or transfers of the radioisotopes into the food chains. It is therefore desirable to keep to a minimum the amounts of radioisotopes released to the river.

Penetration Effects in Magnetic-Dipole L-shell Internal Conversion

Description: Internal-conversion coefficients may be thought of as consisting of two parts: a usually dominant part which depends only on the atomic number and the nuclear transition energy, and a usually small part depending explicitly on nuclear transition matrix elements. This latter part arises from the penetration of the converting atomic electrons within the transforming nucleus.

A Simple Theory of the Process P+P → D+W+

Description: The discovery of the vector meson which mediates the weak interactions, W,1 would be of extreme importance for weak interaction physics and for field theory in general. The W, if it exists, will be made in a variety of processes such as v+N →W+ + e- + N, or n- + P →W- + P, or, as studied in this note, P + P → D + W+. The W couples to leptons with a dimensionless constant [constant not transcribed] where G is the Feral constant defined t=so that [constant not transcribed]. Thus for [equation not… more

Some Further Remarks on Beam Current Measurements in the AGS

Description: A previous report on this subject (Brookhaven National Laboratory, AGS Internal Report, ECR-4) described in detail the methods of measuring the injected and accelerated proton currents in the Brookhaven AGS up to May 1961. At that time the accelerated current was measured by extracting the bunch frequency component of the signal given by a pair of radial position observation electrodes. The injected current was also determined by the signal induced on a similar pair of radial position electrode… more

Interim Report: Investigation of Ultrasonic Decontamination

Description: The purpose of this investigation is to make a preliminary study and evaluation of the application of ultrasonic equipment and associated handling equipment to the problem of decontaminating reactor tube dummy pieces. Reactor Section is currently planning the construction of batch process nitric acid facilities for dummy decontamination. It was felt that use of ultrasonics together with a solution less corrosive than nitric acid might provide adequate decontamination at lower project cost than … more

A New Liquid Explosive, NTN

Description: Abstract. The preparation and properties of a new explosive, liquid over the range -65 degrees F to +165 degrees F, are presented. This explosive, called NTN, is a 5/1/1 mole ration of nitromethane, tetranitromethane, 1 -nitropropane. The sensitivity and stability of NTN meet military requirements.

Harmonics suppression in electromagnets with application to the ALS storage ring corrector magnet design

Description: This memo presents an analytical development for prediction of skew harmonics in a iron core C-magnet to due arbitrarily positioned electromagnet coils. A structured approach is presented for the suppression of an arbitrary number of harmonic components to arbitrarily low values. Application of the analytical harmonic strength calculations coupled to the structured harmonic suppression approach is presented in the context of the design of the ALS storage ring corrector magnets.

Use of geochemical-equilibrium computer calculations to estimate precipitation from geothermal brines

Description: The Helgeson-Herrick geochemical code was used to calculate the solubility of NaCl, KCl, and KCl-NaCl in water and to predict which minerals will precipitate from Salton Sea Geothermal Field brines. The code's predictions of sulfide-silicate precipitation from the Magmamax No. 1 brine are in good agreement with field tests of scaling, although the observed sulfide-silicate scale matrix is in amorphous form, rather than the crystalline form predicted by the code. The code's predictions of scale … more

Fundamental studies of metal fluorination reactions. Annual progress report

Description: Solid-state electrochemical methods are being used to determine structural, thermodynamic, and transport properties in materials pertinent to the fluorination of metals at elevated temperatures. The solubility and diffusivity of fluorine in solid metals (initially nickel) are being studied by a potentiostatic electrochemical procedure by which changes in an impressed cell voltage induces changes in the activity of fluorine at a metal/electrolyte interface while the recording of the resulting ce… more

Techniques for Judging Intent Behind Network Based Cyber Attacks

Description: This project developed a prototype system that can rapidly differentiate between undirected cyber attacks, and those that have a more specific and concerning intent behind them. The system responds to important cyber attacks in a tactically significant way as the attack is proceeding. It is also creates a prioritized list for the human analysts allowing them to focus on the threats mostly likely to be of interest. In the recent years the volume of attacks over the internet has increased exponen… more

Numerical modeling of the EBT-S ion-cyclotron heating experiment

Description: To determine the effect of ion-cyclotron heating on EBT-S plasma parameters, a one-dimensional, time dependent neoclassical model of plasma particle and energy transport was used. For EBT-S the code was run with the following parameters: B/sub O/ = 0.7 tesla (axial field at the midplane), B/sub O/ = 1.4 tesla (axial field at the throat), R/sub T/ = 150 cm (major radius), a = 15 cm (minor radius at the midplane).
