Some Applications of the Distorted Wave Approximation for Direct Nuclear Reactions

Description: The subject which I will discuss is the distorted - waves theory of direct reactions and its application to the study of nuclei. I shall mainly be concerned with a study of the reaction theory, its range of validity, and its ability to give quantitative information about nuclear structure.

Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor Concepts: a Study

Description: Report describing the performance characteristics of gas-cooled fast reactors, which compare well with those of sodium-cooled fast reactors. With oxide fuel and helium, CO2, and SO2 coolant at pressures of 1000 to 1500 psia, the reactors have slightly higher breeding ratios than comparable sodium-cooled reactors.

Evaporation of Iron-, Nickel-, and Cobalt-Base Alloys at 760 to 980°C in High Vacuums

Description: Report issued by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory discussing the evaporation of alloys in high vacuums. As stated in the introduction, "the investigation encompasses measurements of the evaporation rates, identification of the evaporating elements, and correlation of these measurements to the alloy composition for specimens in both the polished and oxidized conditions" (p. 2). This report includes tables, illustrations, and photographs.

Deposition of Submicron-Size Particles in Ventilation Ducts

Description: The purpose of this study was to investigate mathematically the concentration decrease due to particle deposition phenomena in highly concentrated monodispersed aerosols (mean particle size less than 1.0 mu) flowing through ventilation ducts. It was found that, from the standpoint of removal, the decrease in concentration due to deposition on duct walls was insignificant; but, when considering contamination on duct walls, the amount deposited, even though small when compared with the amount in … more

Electron Metallography of Pyrolytic Carbon Coatings on Fuel Particles

Description: A replica electron microscope study of as-polished and cathodically etched surfaces of pyrolytic carbon coating on fuel particles has been made in an attempt to characterize coatings that showed as much as a 30% difference in bult density. High and low density coating could be characterized by their polished surface textures; however, these features were not indicative of the true structure as seen by direct electron transmission. Microvoids detected by the transmission study of cleavage flakes… more

Recent Developments in DC Polarography

Description: This paper summarized the work at ORNL in controlled-potential dc polarography since mid 1959 and states conclusion and viewpoints that have been reached in the course of this work. The following topics are discussed: (1) Potentiostatic Compensation for Polarographic Cell Resistance; (2) Time-Derivative DC Polarography; (3) Signal-to-Noise Ratio (S.N); (4) Resolution; and (5) DC Polarography in Non Aqueous Solvents and, Particularly, in Solvent Extracts.

A Simple Quasi Reference Electrode … Applications in Controlled-Potential Polarography and Voltammetry and in Chronopotentiometry

Description: The quasi reference electrode ( Q.R.E. ) is a bright platinum wire or other inert conductor immersed directly in the solution; it may have a very small area. It is used instead of a true reference electrode but must be used with potentiostatic or other circuits that prevent the drawing of cell current through the Q.R. E. When used in appropriate situations, the results obtained by use of a Q.R.E. are like those obtained with a true reference electrode except for the lack of thermodynamic meanin… more

Recent Studies of Boiling Burnout

Description: Five recent investigations of the critical heat flux in water systems are described. These studies were conducted in the interval from early 1963 through the present. The five studies are (1) Pool studies: inherent uncertainty in the critical heat flux; (2) Pool studies: heat transfer inside of horizontal, open ended heated tubes immersed in a pool; (3) Pool studies: natural-convection burnout of closed vertical channels; (4) Forced-convection investigations; subcooled boiling and burnout with … more

An Assessment of Certain Avenues of Improvement for Nuclear Desalination Technology

Description: From the questions which have been asked, I gather that I am expected to bring you the news of the latest exciting developments in desalination at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. However, the agenda for this meeting does not include reports of unfinished investigations; moreover, although there are some new ideas afoot at Oak Ridge, they are aimed toward the very large stations which are somewhat beyond the scope of the more current interests represented here. So instead of presenting new de… more

Photochemistry of Nucleic Acids, and its Biological Implications

Description: The series of papers that we are about to discuss is primarily concerned, not as the first part of the session title indicates, with photochemistry of nucleic acids, but, as the second part indicates, with the biological implications of the photochemistry. We know that ultraviolet acts on nucleic acids in cells, and we know a good deal about the photochemistry of this interaction in vitro. The question we ask here is, which test tube reactions are of importance to the survival of the cell?
