N-Reactor lithium-aluminate target element process development and fabrication

Description: Fabrication of LiAlO{sub 2} target elements for the N-Reactor Coproduct Demonstration Program required development of a suitable fabrication process consistent with installation of a minimum production facility on a limited time schedule. The most advanced manufacturing process developed and used within the facility and schedule constraints is described in detail. Major problems encountered in obtaining required component materials and development of the fabrication process are discussed and an… more

Iron-masonite shield status interim report No. 6

Description: This is number six in a planned series of reports intended to show the status and rates of deterioration of the iron-masonite biological shields of B, Dg DR, F, and H reactors. Since DR, F, and H reactors are in the deactivated state this is the final such report for them. Following the deactivation of D Reactor at the end of June, 1967, B Reactor will be the only one (out of the five with which the shield deterioration study began) to continue operating. Data for this report pertain to the top… more

Effect of negative pions on the proliferative capacity of ascites tumor cells (lymphoma) grown in vivo

Description: We have attempted to determine the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of negative pions in the Bragg-peak region as compared to the plateau region and to gamma rays. We irradiated LAF{sub 1} mice, bearing 5-day-old lymphoma ascites tumors, in the peak and plateau regions of a 90-MeV pion beam for 40 hours in temperature-controlled holders. The animals were then sacrificed; lymphoma cells were withdrawn and titrated into adult female LAF{sub 1} mice. The proliferative capacity of the irradi… more
