The High-Temperature Irradiation Behavior of Hypostoichiometric Uranium Monocarbide

Description: From abstract: A series of three multi-compartmented experiments was designed to investigate the irradiation behavior uranium carbide fuels, as a function of composition, temperature, and burn-up; and the mechanical properties of Type 304 stainless steel, as a function of temperature and integrated thermal neutron flux.

Gamma Scanning with a Lithium-Drifted Germanium Anticoincidence Spectrometer

Description: Despite the presence of a large number of ganrma rays in gross fission products, the rather poor energy resolution of NaI detectors has limited the application of gamma scanning to the more prominent fission products. The advent of lithium-drifted germanium semiconductors makes it possible to perform more comprehensive analyses on these complex spectra. The high energy resolution of these detectors makes them attractive, despite their low efficiency.

The Use of Non-Linear Regression Methods for Analysing Sensitivity and Quantal Response Data

Description: A great many special methods for the statistical analysis of sensitivity or quantal response data have been developed during the past century. This paper demonstrates that many of these techniques can be considered in the light of non-linear regression methods which have been made more tolerable in recent years with the prevalence of high-speed computers.
