Description:
The neutron tissue dose at large distances from a fission source was studied by using a water-filled phantom and four different detectors: a BF/sub 3/ counter, a polyethylenelined ethylene-filled proportional counter, indium foils, and nuclear emulsions. The source of fission neutrons was the ORNL Health Physics Research Reactor which was attached to a hoist which was in turn installed on a 1530-foot tower. The reactor could be operated at any elevation from 27 to 1500 ft. The phantom studies were made at horizontal distances from 250 to 1500 yards from the tower. Dose contributions from recoil protons H/sup 1/ (n, gamma )D/sup 2/ and N/sup 14/(n,p)C/sup 1 reactions are considered. (auth)

Description:
BS>Methods for predicting the stability of fast reactors in the presence of both positive and negative reactivity coefficients are surveyed. Experimental methods of determining reactor stability are reviewed: excursion, transient, and oscillator. Sources of reactivity coefficients are discussed for both zero power and nonzero power operation. Representative reactivity coefficient values are presented, and positive coefficients due to Doppler effect, fuel bowing, and sodium coolant expansion are discussed. (D.L.C.)
Description:
We investigated electron and gamma spectra of mixtures of isotopes of curium. This was done on a beta spectrometer with double focusing at an angle of {pi}{radical}2 and on a scintillation gamma spectrometer with a 40 {times} 40 mm NAI(Tl) single crystal detector. The observed electron spectrum are interpolated and presented. Also, experimental results of the ratio of conversion at L and M subshells are presented and compared to theoretical values.

Description:
Measurements of radioactivity in 277 children were completed at the fourth Pasco Elementary School on February 16. Whole-body counting of children at the fifth elementary school began on February 21, following lectures to 12 classrooms in grades one through six. Analysis of pheasants, quail and chukar shot locally revealed that only birds collected in the vicinity of the Columbia River contained detectable P{sup 32} and Zn{sup 65}. In decreasing order of concentrations the three species ranked chukar > pheasant > quail. Heads of the birds consistently contained more of these two radionuclides than the edible flesh by factors varying up to 20. A ca5% sample of local hunters was drawn from Washington State Game Department records in February. A questionnaire designed to gather data on hunting and consumption of game birds by local residents will be mailed to these 657 people in March. The results will aid in defining the importance of game-bird consumption to local environmental radiation doses. Diet distributions of Richland and Benton City elementary school pupils were computed this month. Consumptions of various foods were determined for various age groups of boys and of girls.
Description:
The diffusion of hydrogen in zirconium hydride was studied using permeation techniques. The rate of permeation of hydrogen through zirconium hydride disks was measured for small concentration gradients. Data were obtained at 61 to 65 at.% hydrogen and 500 to 750 ction prod- C. The diffusion coefficients were determined by the time-lag method. Ho variation of the diffusion coefficients with hydrogen concentration was observed. The diffusion coefficients can be expressed by D (cm/sup 2/ per sec) = 599 exp (-34,800/RT). (auth)
Description:
The two K Reactors at the Hanford Plant of the Atomic Energy Commission were retubed in 1963 with ribless Zircaloy process tubes. These tubes, 1.81 inch OD x 0.037 inch wall, were made by tube reducing methods from extruded blooms and were installed without final pickling or autoclaving. These tubes are used with once-through filtered water with a maximum coolant temperature of approximately 110 C. After approximately two years` service, it was discovered that these tubes were absorbing hydrogen in a totally unexpected and alarming manner. It was found that the downstream few feet of these tubes had a layer of massive hydride platelets, several mils thick, on the inner surface, and that the hydrogen content of the tube wall beneath this layer had increased from the as-fabricated level of 5--15 ppm to 50--75 ppm. The portion of the tubes so affected was downstream of the fuel charge. Physical testing has indicated loss of ductility but no significant changes in strength, Cold burst tests resulted in a ductile failure mode with no tendency toward brittle fracture. A program to determine the basic mechanism responsible for this phenomenon as well as practical means for its elimination will be the subject of a companion paper.

The tissue dose calculations of Kinney were used to calculate several importance functions associated with the dose from primary and secondary particles in the tissue due to penetration of an aluminum shield by a solar-flare proton spectrum. Secondary particles produced in the shield were not considered. (auth)
