Status report for data files and Monte Carlo transport codes maintained by the Physical Data Group of LLNL

Description: The Physical Data Group of the Theoretical Physics Division of LLNL has developed and maintains several basic data files, several Monte Carlo transport codes, and the requisite processing codes that convert the basic data to the form required by our own transport codes and by other laboratory transport and burn codes. The data files (libraries) that we maintain are listed together with a few comments about each.

Tunnel nitrogen spill experiment

Description: The Energy Saver Safety Analysis Report (SAR) found the tunnel oxygen deficiency considerations emphasized helium spills. These reports concluded the helium quickly warms and because of its low denisty, rises to the apex of the tunnel. The oxygen content below the apex and in all but the immediate vicinity of the helium spill is essentially unchanged and guarantees an undisturbed source of oxygen especially important to fallen personnel. In contrast nitrogen spills warm slower than helium due t… more

Possible error-prone repair of neoplastic transformation induced by fission-spectrum neutrons

Description: We have examined the effect of fission-spectrum neutrons from the JANUS reactor at Argonne National Laboratory, delivered either as acute or protracted irradiation, on the incidence of neoplastic transformation in the C3H 1OT1/2 mouse embryo cell line. Acute exposures were delivered at 10 to 38 rads/min, protracted exposures at 0.086 or 0.43 rad/min. The total doses for both ranged from 2.4 to 350 rads. In the low dose region (2.4 to 80 rads), there was a large enhancement in transformation fre… more

A statistical analysis of personnel contaminations in 200 Area facilities

Description: This study determined the frequency statistics of personnel contaminations in 200 Area facilities. These statistics are utilized in probability calculations for contamination risks, and are part of an effort to provide reliable information for use in safety studies. Data for this analysis were obtained from the 200 Area and the Tritium Area Fault Tree Data Banks and were analyzed with the aid of the STATPAC computer code.

Social Security Student Benefits

Description: As part of his program for economic recovery, President Reagan included a proposal to discontinue social security benefits for 18 to 22-year-old students attending college or vocational school. Critics of the student benefit believe that other federally funded educational assistance programs which tailor the amount of aid provided to actual educational costs and family income should be relied upon to help finance the college educations of students who are children of retired, disabled, and dece… more
