Annual Technical Progress Report, AEC Unclassified Programs: Fiscal Year 1968

Description: Annual report with the objectives of evaluating, producing, and maintaining an up-to-date set of basic nuclear data; producing and evaluating multigroup constants; and improving of present day methods of neutronic calculations as related to microscopic and macroscopic nuclear data, for unclassified research sponsored by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission during FY 1968.

Carbon-14 extraction from reactor gas, Progress report. Production test authorization {number_sign}124

Description: Carbon-14 is by far the most popular of the labeled isotopes because of its adaptability to so many chemical compounds and its relatively harmless characteristic beta radiation. Because the inert gas atmosphere contains up to 30% nitrogen, carbon-14 is generated within the K Reactors by the conversion of nitrogen-14, and if not immediately oxidized, carbon-14 may remain in the reactor core for some time. It is eventually oxidized and escapes when the outward gas leakage from the reactor is vent… more

Experimental Drifts of Juvenile Chinook Salmon Through Effluent Discharges at Hanford in 1968

Description: Young chinook salmon held in live boxes were drifted through Hanford reactor discharges in the central Columbia River, with the objective of evaluating the affect of heated effluents on fish survival. No significant mortalities of fish were recorded from 12 drifts during the spring (March--April) when base river temperatures were low, ranging from 4 to 7.6 C. Some mortalities occurred, however, in 3 of 24 drifts conducted in late summer (August--September) when base river temperatures extended … more
