Analysis of x-ray production in TMX upgrade

Description: TMX Upgrade (TMX-U), a tandem mirror experiment at LLNL, will use high power microwaves for electron cyclotron resonant heating (ECRH). As demonstrated on Elmo Bumpy Torus (EBT) and related experiments which use similar heating techniques, high energy electron populations are created. In these devices, which run CW, significant x-ray production occurs and adequate shielding must be provided for personnel protection. TMX-U is a pulsed experiment; however, significant x-ray production is expected… more

Compensation of the solenoid field in the colliding-beams detector

Description: There is no need to provide individual compensation for the detector solenoid. The correction skew quads which correct for the skew quad errors should take care of the detector solenoid. (GHT)

Leaching study of PNL 76-68 glass beads using the LLNL continuous-flow method and the PNL modified IAEA method. Final report

Description: A long-term single-pass continuous-flow (SPCF) leaching test was conducted on the glass waste form PNL 76-68. Leaching rates of Np, Pu and various stable elements were measured at 25 and 75/sup 0/C with three different solutions and three different flow rates. The SPCF leaching results were compared with results of a modified IAEA leach test performed by Pacific Northwest Laboratories (PNL). Elemental leach rates and their variation with temperature, flow rate and solution composition were esta… more

Additional Pu-238 production

Description: Possible DOD demands for up to 1 MW thermal of heat sources could be partially met by increasing SRP Pu-238 production. The Pu-238 would be an alternate or supplement to Sr-90 in these heat sources. There is a growing surplus of Np-237 target material which could be used to produce high-assay Pu-238 (83.5%). In addition SRP produces low assay Pu-238 (approx. 27%) that could be extracted instead of being sent to the waste tanks. About 216 kg or 121 kw thermal of additional high-assay Pu-238 coul… more

X-ray analysis of samples from LH84-2

Description: Each of these samples was analyzed using automated, scanning x-ray diffractometry. The blue vanadium surface was run in the as-received condition, while a new method of sample preparation was used for the scale. This new method involved (1) grinding the sample in a conventional fashion, (2) mixing the sample with collodion to form a castable slurry, (3) pouring and spreading the mixture on a taut, clean sheet of plastic film, and (4) then covering the resultant sample with a second plastic film… more
