Shielding Against Gamma Rays, Neutrons, and Electrons From Nuclear Weapons: A Review and Bibliography

Description: Report discussing the problem of predicting dose rates and of estimating the effectiveness of shielding from radiations resulting from nuclear explosions. A number of calculations and supporting experiments regarding the penetration and diffusion of gamma rays, neutrons, and electrons through air and bulk materials are summarized. Indications are given of gaps in such input information. A selection of 485 references from the unclassified literature is presented, of which 388 are cataloged as to… more

Construction of a Sea-Level, Transisthmian Canal Using Nuclear Explosives

Description: Partial abstract: "This report is based: (1) on information developed in earlier high explosive experiments which determined the optimum spacing and burial depth of charges in a row to produce a channel uniformly wide and deep, and (2) on the Sedan and Danny Boy experiments, which provided data on dimensions of nuclear craters in both soil and basalt rock. This information has been combined with the 1947 route surveys of the Panama Canal company, and estimates have been made not only of the num… more

AXIAL TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION IN EGCR. DEVELOPMENT OF THE PTD-1 PROGRAM

Description: The equations and procedures of the PTD-1 program for obtaining the surface temperature distribution, the gas bulk temperature, and the pressure distribution for any of the 234 channels in the EGCR are developed. The program, in FORTRAN for the IBM 7090, is designed for any arbitrary power distribution yielding a constant gas outiet temperature or a given maximum surface temperature and includes the effects of thermal radiation on surface and bulk gas temperatures. The flow sheet and some resul… more

ANALOG SOLUTION OF A MODEL OF THE SOURCES OF ELUTRIATABLE FINES IN THE FLUIDIZED BED CLACINATION PROCESS

Description: A model is proposed which depicts the sources of elutriatable fines in the fluidized bed calcination process as being in two major groups, spray drying mechanisms and attrition mechanisms. Based on this model, equations are derived which express the rate of change of the concentration of a chemical tracer material in the elutriated fines, following introduction of the tracer into the feed and following its removal from the feed. This system has been simulated on an analog computer, and by match… more
