Transportation and handling environment

Description: The elements of the environment relating to transportation and handling include temperature, solar radiation, precipitation, humidity, pressure, shock, and vibration. While each of these deserves consideration, the latter two, shock and vibration, are perhaps the least understood. The report discusses all of these elements, but concentrates largely on shock and vibration. Emphasis is upon the necessity of understanding both the product and the environment. To that end, descriptions of the envir… more

ISOLEUCYL-tRNA SYNTHETASE OF E. coli B. A RAPID KINETIC INVESTIGATION OF THE L-ISOLEUCINE ACTIVATING REACTION

Description: We have investigated the preequilibrium kinetics of the L-isoleucine activation reaction catalyzed by Ile-tRNA synthetase in the presence of a fluorescent reporter group, 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonate, using the stopped-flow technique. It is found that of all the reactants involved, L-isoleucine binds slowest to the enzyme, apparently in a two-step process. The kinetics of the reaction are invariant in the presence of co-reactants, whereas the kinetics for ATP are drastically changed in… more

Transverse Two-Stream Instability in the Presence of Strong Species-Species and Image Forces

Description: The theory of coherent transverse oscillations of two particle species is extended to include strong species-species and image forces. It is shown that in general the species-species force can considerably alter the instability threshold. Conversely, it is shown that the limit on the performance of an electron ring accelerator imposed by the requirement of stable ion electron oscillations, is not significantly improved by the inclusion of images.

MULTIPERIPHERAL MODEL WITH PSEUDOSCALAR AND VECTOR MESON EXCHANGE

Description: Previous work on generalizations of the ABFST multiperipheral model is extended to allow for vector meson exchange. The intercept of the Pomeranchon pole, the magnitude of asymptotic total cross sections and off-shell corrections to them are calculated.

Process for Removing Radioactive Wastes from Liquid Streams

Description: The process is under development at Mound Laboratory to remove radioactive waste (principally plutonium-238) from process water prior to discharge of the water to the Miami river. The contaminated water, as normally received, is at a pH between 6 and 90. Under these conditions, plutonium in all its oxidation states is hydrolyzed; however, the level of the radioactive solids varies from about 50ppm down to about 50 ppb and the plutonium remains in a colloidal or subcolloidal condition. The permi… more

Physics of gas cooled reactors

Description: From meeting on new developments in reactor physics and shieiding calculations; Lake Kiamesha, New York, USA (12 Sep The temperature coefficient of the HTOR is composed of a strong negative Doppler coefficient and a positive moderator coefficient, the net effect being about -10 x 10/sup -5// deg C at operating temperature. the positive moderator coefficient is a result of the absence of significant density coefficients and the nuclear characteristics of U- 233. In addition, selected iission pro… more

Nature of simultaneous processes in plastic deformation

Description: The nature of two simultaneous processes is analyzed in detail. It is found that the experimental activation enthalpy increases with temperature for parallel processes and decreases with temperature for consecutive processes. Similarly the activation volume increases with pressure for consecutive processes and decreases with pressure for parallel processes. The creep rate stress exponent increases with stress for parallel processes and decreases with stress for consecutive processes. Each activ… more

Stress-induced deformation of metals during fast-neutron irradiation

Description: From European conference on irradiation embrittlement and creep in fuel cladding and core components; London, UK (9 Nov Theoretical models for the deformation of metals subjected simultaneously to external loads and fast-neutron irradiation are discussed. The following models have been analyzed in detail: dislocation climb; climb controlled glide; and nucleation, growth, and unfaulting of dislocation loops. It is shown that the strains produced only by the climb of dislocations are equal to the… more

Study of the electron donor--acceptor properties of diamagnetic organic molecules via positronium reactions

Description: From 11th international symposium on free radicals; Berchtesgaden, F.R. Germany (4 Sep 1973). The results of a preliminary study of the interactions of positronium with nitrobenzene and ontho, meta, and para derivatives of nitrotoluene and dinitrobenzene in benzene solutions are reported. Distinct differences in the rate constants for the reaction of positronium with the organic molecules were observed for the various systems, and an attempt was made to correlate these changes to certain molecu… more

Biological effects of daily inhalation of radon and its short-lived daughters in experimental animals

Description: From symposium on noble gases; Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (24 Sep 1973). Exposures of rats, mice, and hamsters for 90 hours per week to radon daughters nanging from 2000 to 8500 WL, with and without 18 mu g per liter uranium ore dust, caused marked lifeshortening in all three species. Marked reduction in body weights occurred in all three species, with weight losses of 30 to 50% of control animal values in all species after 31/2 months of exposures. Mice exposed to radon daughters and ore dust were… more

Future research in mouse radiation genetics

Description: From thirteenth international congress of genetics; Berkeley, Ca1ifornia, USA (20 Aug 1973). The specific-locus method was used to investigate the effect of various biological and physical factors on radioinduced mutation frequency at a sample of seven gene loci of mice. The biological factors include sex, cell stage, and the interval between irradiation and fertilization. The physical factors include radiation dose, dose rate, dose fractionation, and radiation quality. It is suggested that the… more

Spent fuel shipping, reprocessing, and recycle fabrication in the HTGR fuel cycle

Description: From joint power generation conference; New Orleans, Louasiana, USA (16 Sep 1973). The High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor (HTGR) fuel recycle operation is described. The description includes the HTGR spent fuel shipping system and the proposed method of reprocessing the spent fuel to recover the bred /sup 233/U and /sup 235/U. The process for refabricating the recovered fuel into recycle fuel is also discussed. (auth)

Effects of intracavitary irradiation by californium-252

Description: From effects of neutron irradiation upon cell function conference; Munich, F. R. Germany (22 Oct 1973). Improvements in neutron dosimetry and additional information about the effects of neutrons caused renewed interest in fast neutrons for cancer therapy. The availability of encapsulated /sup 252/Cf has introduced the need for data on the response of normal tissues that are at risk during an intracavitary exposure to a /sup 252/Cf implant. The anatomical characteristics of the Hanford Miniature… more
