Uranium in alkaline rocks

Description: Geologic and geochemical criteria were developed for the occurrence of economic uranium deposits in alkaline igneous rocks. A literature search, a limited chemical analytical program, and visits to three prominent alkaline-rock localities (Ilimaussaq, Greenland; Pocos de Caldas, Brazil; and Powderhorn, Colorado) were made to establish criteria to determine if a site had some uranium resource potential. From the literature, four alkaline-intrusive occurrences of differing character were identifi… more

Effects of fueling profiles on plasma transport

Description: A one-dimensional (1-D), multifluid transport model is used to investigate the effects of particle fueling profiles on plasma transport in an ignition-sized tokamak (TNS). Normal diffusive properties of plasmas will likely maintain the density at the center of the discharge even if no active fueling is provided there. This significantly relaxes the requirements for fuel penetration. Not only is lower fuel penetration easier to achieve, but it may have the advantage of reducing or eliminating de… more

NACHOS: a finite element computer program for incompressible flow problems. Part I. Theoretical background

Description: The theoretical background for the finite element computer program, NACHOS, is presented in detail. The NACHOS code is designed for the two-dimensional analysis of viscous incompressible fluid flows, including the effects of heat transfer. A general description of the fluid/thermal boundary value problems treated by the program is described. The finite element method and the associated numerical methods used in the NACHOS code are also presented. Instructions for use of the program are document… more

Electrostatic ion beam scanning system

Description: An electrostatic scanning system has been designed and built to uniformly implant a 1 cm/sup 2/ sample with a charged particle beam. The full angular scan capability for a 2 MeV beam is 0.5 degrees at 6 kV p-p. The design of the system is extremely simple so it is very compact, easy to operate, and has shown very good reliability.

Definition of two band parameters for use in photon transport calculations

Description: The multigroup photon diffusion equations are derived from the Boltzmann equation. Limitations and assumptions imposed by the diffusion equation are thus apparent. In addition, this approach serves to define all of the required diffusion parameters in terms of cross sections; the relationship to the multi-band parameters used in neutron transport calculations can thus be clearly established. All required two-band parameters are defined in terms of Planckian and Rosseland mean values. (RWR)
