Use of Cloud Observations and Mesoscale Meteorology Models to Evaluate and Improve Cloud Parameterizations. Final Technical Progress Report, December 1, 1991--September 30, 1996

Description: The main goal of this research effort is to improve methods for calculating cloud cover within climate models. Cloud cover observations are being used with standard meteorological observations to improve the ability to diagnose cloud cover in climate models. Until now, cloud cover and heights have been diagnosed from the US Air force RTNEPH and 3DNEPH archive, although recent CART measurements are also being analyzed. Improved cloud cover formulations have been compared with existing climate mo… more

Final design review report for K basin dose reduction project

Description: The strategy for reducing radiation dose originating from radionuclides absorbed in the K East Basin concrete is to raise the pool water level to provide additional shielding. This report documents a final design review for cleaning/coating basin walls and modifying other basin components where appropriate. The conclusion of this review was that the documents developed constitute an acceptable design for the Dose Reduction Project.

Manipulation of high-current pulses for heavy-ion fusion

Description: For efficient induction-driven heavy-ion fusion, the current profile along a pulse must be modified in a non-selfsimilar manner between the accelerator and the target. In the accelerator, the pulse should have a duration of at least 50 ns in order to make efficient use of the induction cores, and the current should by nearly uniform along the pulse to minimize the aperture. In contrast, the optimal current profile on target consists of a main pulse of about 10 ns preceded by a longer low-curren… more

Ignition rate measurement of laser-ignited coals. Quarterly report, January 1, 1996--March 31, 1996

Description: Over the last several decades many experiments have been conceived to study the ignition of pulverized coal and other solid fuels. We are constructing a laser-based apparatus which offers several advantages over those currently in favor. Sieve-sized particles are dropped batch-wise into a laminar, upward-flow wind tunnel which is constructed with a quartz test section. The gas stream is not preheated. A single pulse from a Nd:YAG laser is focused through the tunnel and ignites several particles… more

Methane Coupling by Membrane Reactor. Quarterly Technical Progress Report, March 25--June 24, 1996

Description: The experimental study was continued on methane oxidative coupling using an oxygen-permeable dense membrane reactor. The oxygen permeance through the dense membrane was measured and preliminary experiments were conducted with the catalytic membrane reactor. The oxygen permeance was found to be similar to that obtained earlier without catalyst packing. No C{sub 2} hydrocarbons were observed in the catalytic membrane reactor for methane coupling. In order to reduce the non-selective, total oxidat… more

Image degradation from surface scatter in EUV optics

Description: Synchrotron-based 13 nm measurements of scatter from individual mirrors and an assembled imaging system for Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography have been compared to a model of image formation in the presence of scatter. The theory uses a Power Spectral Density description of the constituent optics to describe modifications to the image due to scatter. Reasonable agreement between measurements and theory was obtained for both individual mirrors and the assembled system. 9 refs., 4 figs.
