Cleaning of aluminum alloy 5083. [For welding]

Description: The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate several different cleaning procedures on welds with very low heat inputs. The study evaluated the Oak Ridge Y-12 Plant's chemical cleaning, another type of chemical cleaning, ion cleaning, and diamond-machined cleaning. The results showed that the diamond-machining process provides better weld joint surfaces and sound welds with minimum oxide inclusion and porosity.

Cornell undulator/summary of discussions

Description: Based on an earlier statement made by CESR (during the meeting in March 1986 at Cornell) that the ring energy can be 6-GeV and the minimum gap can be 0.9 cm, we performed design calculations for the Cornell undulator. These are presented and briefly summaried in this report.

Development of an x-ray framing camera

Description: We are presently developing an ultrafast x-ray framing camera, to be used in laser fusion experiments on the NOVA facility at LLNL. The framing camera will provide high-fidelity images with frame durations of less than 100 ps. The first prototype camera will generate a single image approximately one square centimeter in area, with a spatial resolution of approx.30 microns at the image plane. Coupling the framing camera to a 22 x Wolter x-ray microscope will provide resolution at the target of a… more

Diagnostic system for measurement of particle balance in TMX-U

Description: Several diagnostics measure the particle sources and losses in the Tandem Mirror Experiment-Upgrade (TMX-U) plasma. An absolutely calibrated high-speed (0.5 ms per frame) filtered (6561 A) video camera measures the total ionization source as a function of radius. An axial view of the plasma automatically integrates the axial variations within the depth of field of the system. Another camera, viewing the plasma radially, measures the axial source variations near the deuterium fueling source. Axi… more

Inertial fusion research at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory: program status and future applications

Description: The objectives of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) Laser Fusion Program are to understand and develop the science and technology required to utilize inertial confinement fusion (ICF) for both military and commercial applications. The results of recent experiments are described. We point out the progress in our laser studies, where we continue to develop and test the concepts, components, and materials for present and future laser systems. While there are many potential commerci… more

New Evidence From Soudan 1 for Underground Muons Associated With Cygnus X-3

Description: The Soudan 1 experiment has obtained additional evidence for underground muons associated with the x-ray pulsar Cygnus X-3. We report the preliminary analysis of data recorded during the October 1985 radio outburst of Cygnus X-3, which show a significant excess of muons for a narrow range of Cygnus X-3 phases.

Nuclear performance optimization of the molten-salt fusion breeder

Description: Improved nuclear analysis, including the treatment of resonance and spatial self-shielding, coupled with an optimization procedure, has resulted in an improved performance estimate for the molten salt blanket. Net U-233 breeding ratio ranges between 0.58 and 0.63, and blanket energy multiplication ranges between 1.8 and 1.9.

(Restriction of virus infection by plants: Annual report, 1986)

Description: This research concerns the strong resistance, or even immunity, against a specific virus that is exhibited by one or a few lines of a plant species, in contrast to the general susceptibility of most lines of that species. The contrast between the reactions to virus inoculation of different lines of one species implies that a single gene or a very few genes may mediate the resistance or immunity. The prospects for isolating, studying and transferring such a gene should be good for a system with … more

Safety analysis of the existing 804 and 845 firing facilities

Description: A safety analysis was performed to determine if normal operations and/or potential accidents at the 804 and 845 Firing Facilities at Site 300 could present undue hazards to the general public, peronnel at Site 300, or have an adverse effect on the environment. The normal operation and credible accident that might have an effect on these facilities or have off-site consequence were considered. It was determined by this analysis that all but one of the hazards were either low or of the type or ma… more

Simple example of track finding by Fourier transform and possibilities for vector or optical processors

Description: Simple examples of finding tracks by Fourier transform with filter or correlation function are presented. Possibilities for using this method in more complicated real situations and the processing times which might be achieved are discussed. The method imitates the simplest examples in the literature on optical pattern recognition and optical processing. The possible benefits of the method are in speed of processing in the optical Fourier transform wherein an entire picture is processed simulta… more

TIBER II: an upgraded tokamak igntion/burn experimental reactor

Description: We are disIgning a minimum-size Tokamak ignition/Burn Reactor (TIBER II). This design incorporates physics requirements, neutron wall loading and fluence parameters that will make it compatible with a nuclear testing mission. Reactor relevant physics will be tested by using current drive and steady-state operation. Although the design accommodates several current drive options, including neutral beams, the base case uses a combination of lower hybrid and electron-cyclotron radio frequency power… more
