Army Gas-Cooled Reactor Systems Program Monthly Progress Report: April 1959

Description: Abstract: This monthly progress report covers the activities of the Army Gas-Cooled Reactor System Program for April 1959. The program includes a water-moderated heterogeneous reactor (Gas-Cooled Reactor Experiment I), a graphite-moderated homogeneous reactor (Gas-Cooled Reactor Experiment II), a mobile gas-cooled reactor (ML-1), and the coordination of the Gas Turbine Test Facility. [It reports] the progress of each project, the associated tests and data evaluation, the applicable design crit… more

Radiation Damage Problems in the ICPP Barium-140 Separation Process

Description: In the ICPP barium-140 separation process, an MTR fuel element is processed after only two days of cooling. Since the total activity present is of the order of 10(5) curies, it was necessary to investigate the extent and nature of radiation damage to process components, and to devise methods of protecting process solutions where necessary
