Radioactive effluent reduction from 200 Area facilities, phase II

Description: Gaseous and liquid wastes released from the 200 Area from 1965 through 1971 are presented. Recommendations are given to provide facilities and/or modifications to existing facilities which will reduce the radioactivity discharged to the ground. (TFD)

Joint plant instrumentation program and integrated safeguards experiment. Final report

Description: Mixed (uranium-plutonium) oxide standards were prepared and utilized to qualify available nondestructive assay equipment (gamma spectrometers, neutron counters, and calorimeters). Equipment was evaluated during normal operation in a plutonium facility. Measured material balances were calculated for two separate fabrication campaigns. Plutonium material unaccounted for values of less than 0.5% based on the total throughput was obtained in the final balance. A special test was undertaken to compa… 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

New absolute high pressure gauge

Description: A new absolute pressure measurement system based on the simultaneous measurement of length and ultrasonic transit times is described. The system was used to determine the transition pressure of pure mercury at 0 deg C at 7571.2 plus or minus 1.6 bars. It is particularly advantageous to use a device for calibrating secondary gauges such as manganin gauges inasmuch as it gives a highly accurate measurement of nonlinearities in such secondary gages. The gage calibrated in the present study reaches… more

Bevatron beam injection programs: INJECT, PHASE, HINJ. Volume I. A user's guide

Description: A general description of the treatment of the Bevatron injection problem is presented, and the programs are described. The program INJECT for the acceptance calculation determines what beam can be accepted into the machine as a coasting beam. The rf trapping calculation, PHASE, tells what beam will be accepted as the rf voltage is turned on. The accepted pulse calculation, HINJ, uses the results of the two previous calculations to determine what fraction of an injected pulse survives the inject… more

Plutonium in surface soil in the Hanford plant environs

Description: Analyses for plutonium in air, water, and foodstuffs have long been part of the routine surveillance program at Hanford. In addition, the ground and other surfaces have been surveyed for plutonium where there was possible deposition from stack emissions, waste spills, etc., using direct instrument measurements. Detectable plutonium deposition from the few such incidents has been confined to restricted areas. The surface contamination level that can be detected with the portable instruments is a… more

Studies of low temperature phase transformations in high field superconductors and the phonon spectrum and mechanical properties of vanadium. Final report

Description: Extensive studies of the structure and phase transformations of high field superconductors of the BETA -tungsten type were made. A phase transformation was discovered at 43 deg K in Nb/sub 3/Sn and the structure of the low temperature phase was measured. The details of the transformation in terms of the formation of the low temperature tetragonal phase from the high temperature cubic phase was investigated both by x-ray observations and optical microscopy below 40 deg K. The complete phonon dis… more

Effects of retardation on electromagnetic self-energy of atomic states

Description: The significance of retardation effects in photon emissions and absorption is emphasized in the calculation of self-energy. It is explicitly demonstrated that inclusion of such effects leads to a finite answer for the shifts of atomic energy levels in a nonrelativistic theory without cutoff. Ambiguities that exist in the mass renormalization in the non-relativistic approach are pointed out. Such ambiguities vanish from the relativistic theory. Explicit calculation is carried out in the case of … more

Zirconium hydride reactor control reflector systems: summary report

Description: The beryllium reflector control system development for SNAP reactors is documented, from the initial SNAP 10A System through the current 5-kW(e) Thermoelectric System. Described are the various reflector concepts used in these systems for shadowshielded and 4 pi -shielded nuclear systems. The development of the key components, such as the actuators, bearings, and drive mechanisms for these systems, is also traced from the SNAP 10A concept through to the current system. Developmental test result… more
