Spectrophotometric studies of solutions at elevated temperatures and pressures: status and program for FY1961 and part of FY 1962

Description: A program was initiated on the spectrophotometric study of aqueous solution chemistry. The goal is operation at temperatures up to at least 330 deg C and at pressures up to 200 atm, and to near the critical point if this appears to be feasible. A spectrometer capable of operation under these extreme conditions is being designed. (W.L.H.)

TEST OF GERMAN UNDERGROUND PERSONNEL SHELTERS

Description: The predicted behavior of German underground personnel shelters, equipment, and certain instrumentation was investigated. Data obtained will be used for evaluation and improvement of present design criteria. Nine reinforcedconcrete underground shelters, designed by German engineers, were tested at the 170-, 155-, 110-, 78-, 26-, 11.5-, and 7.2-psi overpressure ranges as determined from average blast-line instrumentation measurements. Reinforcing steel, doors, and ventilation equipment were rece… more

Reactor Materials Study. Research and Development of Metal Hydrides. Quarterly Report No. 7 for April 1, 1960 to June 30, 1960

Description: High-temperature x-ray diffraction experiments provided confirming evidence regarding the origin of the metastable gamma phase and of the general features of the zirconiumhydrogen phase system. These experiments also showed that the reaction alpha + delta -- beta (the eutectoid reactlon on heating) proceeds at an extraordinarily slow rate, although the reverse reaction proceeds so rapidly that beta phase cannot be retained to room temperature by quenching. The sluggishness of the eutectoid reac… more

Evaluation of Buried Conduits as Personnel Shelters

Description: Supersedes ITR-1421. Twelve large-diameter buried conduit sections of various shapes were tested in the 60- to l49-psi overpressure region of Burst Priscilla to make an empirical determination of the degree of personnel protection afforded by commercially available steel and concrete conduits at depths of burial of 5, 7.5, and 10 feet below grade. Essentially, it was desired to assure that Repartment of Defense Class I, 100psi and comparable radiations, and Class II, 50-psi and comparable radia… more

COHERENT ELECTROMAGNETIC EFFECTS IN HIGH-CURRENT PARTICLE ACCELERATORS: I. INTERACTION OF A PARTICLE BEAM WITH AN EXTERNALLY DRIVEN RADIO-FREQUENCY CAVITY

Description: A calculation is made of the interaction of a beam of particles in an accelerator with the radio-frequency cavity that provides the accelerating mechanism of the machine. A Hamiltonian for synchrotron motion is employed that makes possible the simultaneous solution of Maxwell's equations and the Vlasov equation, so that a self-consistent distribution of particles in synchrotron phase space is determined. The effective voltage on the cavity due to the beam of charged particles is of the order of… more
