LRL 25-INCH BUBBLE CHAMBER

Description: The recently completed 25-inch hydrogen bubble chamber combines excellent picture quality with a fast operating cycle. The chamber has a unique optical system and is designed to take several pictures each Bevatron pulse, in conjunction with the Bevatron rapid beam ejection system. At present the chamber operates twice per Bevatron pulse. The general features of the chamber constructiosn are shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The chamber is ten inches deep at the narrowest point. The magnet is of conventio… more

PT-IP-659-AC, Supplement A transition to normal discharge plan using striped target columns

Description: The scheduled termination of PT IP-659-AC, presently being irradiated in F Reactor, will result in discharge of 105 columns of enriched uranium (0.947 w/o U-235) at less than 50 per cent of the goal exposure. The test block is currently scheduled to be replaced with natural uranium columns. Since F Reactor is on a semiblock discharge plan (alternate rows), subsequent operating plans would require that 64 of these replacement columns of natural uranium be likewise discharged during the scheduled… more

KER-4 operating report test K-4-15, PT IP-477-A, Supplement B

Description: The purpose of this test was to further evaluate the behavior of N Reactor fuel elements at conditions equivalent to or more severe than those expected at N Reactor. A. Date Charged: June 2, 1963: B. Fuel Elements: A total of fourteen 23.2 inch NAEl elements with an enrichment of 0.947 per cent were charged. C. Exposure: The fuel elements were charged a total of 5,661 hours. Of this period, the reactor operated 3,841 hours and the loop was at desired operating conditions 3, 292 hours or 86 per … more

Plutonium concentration and storage, engineering study for Purex L-Cell Package replacement

Description: The Purex L-Cell Package is used for organic stripping and concentrating aqueous plutonium solutions from the final Pu solvent extraction decontamination cycle. At the present time the package is used only during times when the gamma activity of the final product is too high to permit routing the solution to N Cell for final ion-exchange purification or when N Cell is inoperative. The package can be used only to concentrate and then route solutions to the PR Room for loadout into PR cans for st… more

Calculations on Cylindrical Metal Vacuum Chambers in Pulsed Magnetic Fields

Description: It has been suggested that metallic vacuum chambers might be suitable for pulsed magnets operating at audio frequencies, with pulse widths nominally 1/360 sec. In the present note calculations are given for a simple model of such a system, in order to estimate the effects of field attenuation and eddy current losses. The results of the calculation may be summarized briefly as follows, where the results apply to a cylindrical chamber of non-maeyletic stainless steel, 3.0 cm in inside diameter an… more
