Energetic Neutral Injection into Thermonuclear Machines

Description: Abstract: "A scheme is discussed in which D+ ions would be accelerated to about 100 kev in a conventional accelerator, then be sent through a gas target frmo which about half the ions would emerge neutral with very little scattering or energy loss; the neutral beam would then cross into a magnetic field and part of the atoms would be ionized and trapped by colliding with the already trapped ions. The smallest mirror machine with a central field of 30-40 kilogauss, 2;1 mirror ratio and β = 01 to… more

An anion exchange-precipitation procedure for the determination of Na{sup 24} in reactor effluent water

Description: The isotope Na{sup 24} is one of the major short half-life constituents of reactor effluent water. It has a half-life of 15 hours and decays of emission of a 1.39 MeV maximum beta particle. Other radioisotopes present in reactor effluent water from which Na{sup 24} must be separated are Si{sup 31}, P{sup 32}, Mn{sup 56}, Cu{sup 64}, As{sup 76}, Sr{sup 91--92}, Ba{sup 139--140} and rare earths. This report describes a rapid and very simple method for the quantitative determination of Na{sup 24} … more
