Review of the Surface Interaction Theory of Rearrangement and Inelastic Collisions

Description: Deuteron reactions assumed new importance when it was found that the angular distribution of the outgoing particles in d-p and d-n reactions displayed a great deal of structure. Bhatia, Huang, and Butler showed that the structures of the angular distribution of the outgoing particles in d-p and d-n reactions is directly related to the angular momentum of the captured particle. Early studies of deuteron stripping fractions were reviewed and summarized by R. Huby. Additional work was reviewed, an… more

Description: The purpose of the test was to obtain performance data at selected steady state generator loads. The data obtained during the performance of this test indicated that the station performed satisfactory under the new operating conditions of 500 F average coolant temperature and 1800 psia coolant pressure at the selected power lever of 57 mw.

Flow-Gating I : Report No. 83

Description: The simple problem occurring in a computer of transferring a zero or a one from one place to another in a selective fashion is considered by discussing the transmission of information from one Eccles-Jordan flipflop to another. It is assumed that non-overlapping voltage bands represent the zero and one signals the bands being caused by parameter drift.

Reactor Automatic Control and Load Swing Tests. Test Results DL-S-144 (T-554924). Section I

Description: The purpose of this test was to determine the controlling ability of the Reactor Power and Temperature Control System and to determine the operational characteristics of the station during load swings. The Reactor Power and Temperature Control System satisfactorily controlled rod movements to maintain all primary plant parameters within their individual limits during steady state operation, ramp functions load changes and a peak xenon burnout transient. The operational characteristics of the st… more

Polarography in Organic Analysis

Description: The discussion attempts to summarize present trends and future possibilities. After consideration of the areas of analytical applicability of polarography of organic compounds with stress on the use of chemical treatment to convert polarographically inert species to active ones, the importance of the composition of the test solution is discussed from the viewpoint of the effects of pH, buffer composition and concentration, ionic strength, solvent nature and additives. The critical factors in th… more

Radiofrequency Acceleration II

Description: A radiofrequency system consisting of 16 cavities, strongly coupled together by transmission line, is analyzed. This system can be regarded as a single cavity operating in a particular mode, and is found to be a practical system for the accelerator. Also methods rf coupling r-f power into the system are considered. The r-f system with beam loading is analyzed for stability, and a relationship determined for the range of the cavity tuning over which the system is stable.

Radiation Damage to Vacuum Chamber Walls

Description: "The problem of radiation derange to the walls of two types of vacuum chamber for the 6 Bev Cambridge Electron Accelerator was studied. Radiation damage may arise from the synchrotron radiation and from electrons which are not accepted at injection. The synchrotron radiation produces a large amount of secondary x radiation which is isotropic, and therefore complicates the arrangement of internal shielding. The 20 Mev electrons from the lines cannot be attenuated by shielding. It is concluded th… more

Periodic Radiation Survey. Section II. 4182-EFPH. Second Performance. Core I, Seed 1. Test Results DL-S-231 (T-612394)

Description: The purpose of the survey was to determine the radiation level in the Turbine Generator Services Building, around the Fuel Handling Canal, in the limited access areas of the reactor plant containers and on the boiler container roofs during plant operation. The test was performed with the plant at approximately 100 per cent power with three loops (1A, 1B, and 1C) in service. The radiation levels of the areas surveyed with a few exceptions were essentially background (.03 MR/HR). These exceptions… more

Frequency Components of a Step Function and a Sinusoid

Description: Fourier analyses are made on two functions. The first is a step function forward from periodic samples of a sinusoid. If the frequency of the sinusoid is less than one-half of the sampling frequency, it is shown that the step function has no frequency components less than one-half of the sampling frequency other than that of phase, and duration with respect to the interval of the analysis. It is shown that the insertion of a blank space in the period of analysis reduces greatly the uncertainty … more

An Investigation of Scaling of Zirconium at Elevated Temperatures

Description: The scaling behavior of zirconium has been investigated in the temperature range 800 to 1000°C. From the results thus far obtained, it appears that zirconium scales at a somewhat lower rate in O2 (760 mm Hg) than in air.

Appearance Potential Studies I: Determination of Excess Kinetic Energy

Description: The suppressor setting at which an ion beam is extinguished is compared with the extinction setting for an ion beam with no excess energy. These settings are studied as a function of ionizing voltage, extrapolated back to the appearance potential, and converted into units of energy.

Remarks on the Use of Westcott's Correlation

Description: As indicated by Westcott, this type of approach is only valid for a well-moderated reactor and the graphite moderated HTGR and MGCR do not obey this condition. In this report we will use some elementary arguments for deriving an expression for a limit on the C/U atomic ratio below which the Westcott correlation and similar methods might be in error. The whole argument is based upon a homogenous reactor model. To be specific, graphite moderation is assumed throughout, although this is not essent… more

Preparation of Be7 Without Inert Carrier

Description: After bombardment with deuterons, Li metal was dissolved with dilute acid. From this solution Be7 was precipitated as Be(CH)2 on Fe carrier using NH4CH. The contaminates remained in the filtrate. After repeated precipitations in the presence of appropriate holdback carriers, the Fe was extracted with iso-propyl ether, leaving the pure Be7 solution.
