Initial evaluation of photographic data of F- and H-Area seepage basin outcrops

Description: Photographic data for the Savannah River Plant (SRP) were reviewed for 1961 through 1987 to determine the value of this photography in estimating the timing and extent of the F- and H-Area seepage basin outcrops along the upper Four Mile Creek floodplain. In excess of 15,000 frames of photography of the SRP were reviewed. The quality of the photography varied widely and included panchromatic (black and white), natural color, and false color infrared. Altitudes of the photography ranged from 2,0… more

Modulation of continuous electron beams in plasma wake-fields

Description: In this paper we discuss the interaction of a continuous electron beam with wake-field generated plasma waves. Using a one-dimensional two fluid model, a fully nonlinear analytical description of the interaction is obtained. The phenomena of continuous beam modulation and wave period shortening are discussed. The relationship between these effects and the two-stream instability is also examined. 12 refs., 1 fig.

Prospects for 6 to 10 tesla magnets for a TEVATRON upgrade

Description: The first SSC physics is at least 10 years away. An upgrade of the Fermilab Tevatron will ensure the continuity of a vigorous high-energy physics program until the SSC turns on. Three basic proposals are under consideration: /bar p/p at 3 /times/ 10/sup 31/ --Increase luminosity by improvements to the p source. pp at 1 TeV and 2 /times/ 10/sup 32/--Move the main ring to a new tunnel, build a second Tevatron ring, and /bar p/p > 1.5 TeV and 7 /times/ 10/sup 30/--Replace the tevatron with a highe… more

Efficiency calculations for the direct energy conversion system of the Cadarache neutral beam injectors

Description: A prototype energy conversion system is presently in operation at Cadarache, France. Such a device is planned for installation on each six neutral beam injectors for use in the Tore Supra experiment in 1989. We present calculations of beam performance that may influence design considerations. The calculations are performed with the DART charged particle beam code. We investigate the effects of cold plasma, direct energy conversion and neutral beam production. 4 refs., 6 figs., 4 tabs.

Studies of nuclear reactions at very low energies: Annual progress report

Description: The main thrust of the research program was directed at the acquisition, installation and initial operation of the General Ionex Model 1545 charged particle accelerator which will be used in the subsequent reaction cross section measurements. The initial operation of the accelerator has been quite successful, with all of the crucial characteristics meeting or exceeding design specifications. We have made preliminary measurements of the reactions 12C(rho,..gamma..)13N/sup 11/B(rho,..gamma..)/sup… more

Chloride content of Rocky Flats scrub alloy twelfth campaign solution following head end treatment

Description: A single batch of dissolver solution from the twelfth Rocky Flats Scrub Alloy (RFSA) campaign has been analyzed for chloride content following head end treatment to reduce its concentration. Scrub alloy buttons were dissolved in Tank 6.4D during July. In subsequent head end processing, chloride was precipitated with mercurous ion added as the nitrate. The precipitate, Hg{sub 2}Cl{sub 2}, was co-removed with the gelatin floc via centrifugation. Duplicate samples from Tank 11.2, containing the he… more

Chloride content of dissolver solution from Rocky Flats scrub alloy ninth and tenth campaigns following head end treatment

Description: F-Canyon continues to obtain excellent chloride removal from Rocky Flats scrub alloy (RFSA) dissolver solution during head end treatment. One single batch of solution from the ninth RFSA campaign, dissolved in January and February of this year, and two batches from the tenth campaign, dissolved in February, have been successfully processed. Following dissolution in Tank 6.4D, chloride was precipitated with mercurous ion added as the nitrate. The precipitate, Hg{sub 2}Cl{sub 2}, was concurrently… more
