Characterization of an Energy Source for Modeling Hypothetical Core Disruptive Accidents in Nuclear Reactors. First Interim Report. [LMFBR]

Description: The expansion characteristics of the detonation products of a high-explosive energy source used to simulate the pressure-volume change relationships for sodium-vapor expansions during hypothetical core disruptive accidents in a Fast Test Reactor were determined experimentally. Rigid cylinder-piston experiments performed at two scales (ratio 1:3) were undertaken to determine a pressure-volume relationship as a function of source mass and expansion environment. Some of these measurements were com… more

Capsule calorimeter development report

Description: A capsule calorimeter has been designed, fabricated, and tested that is capable of measuring the rate of thermal energy generation of a capsule source with an accuracy of plus or minus five percent over a range of 300 watts to 1,000 watts of power. Three operating modes were investigated. The rate of temperature rise mode of operation was found to be the superior operating mode based on accuracy, time cycle, and simplicity of operation. This mode of operation is recommended for use in the encap… more

NAL Proposal for Study of Photons and Leptons Produced in Meson-Nucleon Collisions in the Deep Scattering Region; Search for Intermediate Bosons, Heavy Leptons, Anomalous Hadronic Processes and Study of Multi-Gamma-Ray Final States

Description: We propose to observe gamma rays and leptons carrying high transverse momentum, in pairs or singles, emerging from meson-nucleon collisions at high energies. These meson-nucleon collisions probe the constituent structure of nucleons and reveal anomalous hadronic interaction processes at small distances. We will search for structure in the effective mass continuum of various (wide angle) pair combinations and in the transverse momentum spectra of singles and pairs. An experimental sensitivity co… more

Proposal to Study Multibody Final States in pp Collisions at 200 GeV/c Using the NAL 15-Foot Bubble Chamber

Description: We propose to expose the NAL 15-foot hydrogen bubble chamber to 200 GeV protons. We intend to take 20,000 pictures. Multiparticle final states will be studied by measuring the momenta of all charged final state particles with the exception of a few very fast tracks where at least the charge and the emission angle of the particle will be determined. Comparison with various models for high energy multiparticle production will be made. Additionally, K{sup o} and {Lambda} production will be studied… more

A Proposal to Measure Cross Sections for pp --> pX, nX as a Function of s and M^2X Using the Internal Target Facility at NAL

Description: A simple counter experiment is proposed to investigate the s and s/M{sup 2} dependence of the invariant cross section for the single particle inclusive reactions pp {yields} pX and pp {yields} nX in a limited region of phase space. 4 < s/M{sup 2} < 20, 40 < s < s{sub max}, 0.1 < |t| < 0.6 near the kinematic limit. The neutron reaction will be studied directly, using a hydrogen jet, and also by measuring the difference between pp {yields} pX and pD {yields} pX using a deuterium… more
