Database of average-power damage thresholds at 1064 nm

Description: We have completed a database of average-power, laser-induced, damage thresholds at 1064 nm on a variety of materials. Measurements were made with a newly constructed laser to provide design input for moderate and high average-power laser projects. The measurements were conducted with 16-ns pulses at pulse-repetition frequencies ranging from 6 to 120 Hz. Samples were typically irradiated for time ranging from a fraction of a second up to 5 minutes (36,000 shots). We tested seven categories of sa… more

Characteristics of multimuon events from fourth generation quarks at the SSC (superconducting super collider)

Description: Multimuon events can be a distinctive signature for pair production of t-quarks or 4th generation quarks at the SSC. In this paper we address aspects of the multimuon event topology relevant to detector design for the SSC. In particular, we discuss energy measurement, rapidity range, segmentation and the need for hadronic calorimetry in a dedicated muon detector.

Use of polarimetry to measure the current profile in MTX

Description: It is possible in principle to measure the poloidal magnetic field profile, and hence, the profile of the plasma current measuring the change in the polarization of a sequence of microwave beams that pass through the plasma. Actual measurements of the plasma current profile would be very interesting in connection with Lower-Hybrid (or EC) current drive experiments since this would provide direct information on modification of the current profile by the application of rf power. A microwave polar… more

Plasma confinement calculations for TIBER-II: Final report

Description: This paper compares the empirically based TIBER II design parameters against the reactor parameters of a tokamak based on a theoretical model of heat transport. The motivation behind this project is the following. The present TIBER-II design is based on an empirical scaling of confinement time tau/sub E/ known as Kaye-Goldston scaling. This empirical scaling is based on data from tokamak plasmas whose temperatures did not exceed a few keV, while the TIBER-II requires electron temperatures of 25… more

Investigation of materials for inert electrodes in aluminum electrodeposition cells

Description: Work was divided into major efforts. The first was the growth and characterization of specimens; the second was Hall cell performance testing. Cathode and anode materials were the subject of investigation. Preparation of specimens included growth of single crystals and synthesis of ultra high purity powders. Special attention was paid to ferrites as they were considered to be the most promising anode materials. Ferrite anode corrosion rates were studied and the electrical conductivities of a se… more

Transport in small and/or random systems

Description: This report discusses: transport in small systems; electron-phonon interactions in quantum wells; noise in small systems; laser propagation in the atmosphere; laser-aerosol interactions; transport properties of carriers in semiconductor quantum wells; light transmission in a particulate medium; and laser generation of shock waves in droplets.

Aspects of B physics

Description: Various aspects of weak decays are commented on. Probing of the standard model and of phenomena beyond the standard model are discussed, followed by a theoretical view of B mesons and some experimental observations on B mesons. The point is made that any data on B decay would be interesting in that it would provide powerful new constraints in analyses of the standard model and extensions thereof. (LEW)

Stratabound pathways of preferred groundwater flow: An example from the Copper Ridge Dolomite in East Tennessee

Description: The Copper Ridge Dolomite of the Upper Cambrian Knox Group underlies a site at Oak Ridge, Tennessee under consideration by the Department of Energy (DOE) for a below ground waste disposal facility. The Copper Ridge was studied for DOE to understand the influence of lithology on deep groundwater flow. Three facies types are distinguished which comprise laterally continuous, 1 to 4 m thick rock units interpreted to represent upward-shallowing depositional cycles having an apparently significant e… more

The Livermore Security Console system

Description: The Console system contains multiple, redundant workstations that enable operator to monitor alarms, assess incidents, and dispatch field personnel. Each workstation is heavily computerized and incorporates automatic video switching and recording, integrated radio and telephone communications, and an advanced high-resolution map and incident-display system. Operation of the workstation is closely integrated with the map display system, allowing an operators to readily pan and zoom. Objects of s… more

Old physics, new physics and colliders

Description: Some topics in the standard model of strong and electroweak interactions are discussed, pointing out some problems in this model and indicating how these problems are attacked in some theoretical models. A discussion of radiative corrections in the Glashow-Weinberg-Salam model is given that stresses how these corrections may be measured at LEP and the SLC. Some features of QCD are discussed which are relevant to hadron colliders. In discussing the unsolved problems of the standard model, some a… more
