Neutron-Induced Fission Cross Section of Pu$sup 240$

Description: The fission cross section of Pu/sup 240/ was determimed from Pu/sup 240/U/sup 235/ ratio for neutron energies between threshold and 8.1 Mev. U/sup 235/ cross section values were essentially those given in a recent compilation in ''Progress in Nuclear Energy.'' The technique used was to mount the two foils back-to-back in a double ionization chamber and to irradiate them in a neutron flux of variable energy. (A.C.)

ACTIVATION CROSS SECTION OF Na$sup 23$ AROUND 3 KEV

Description: The activation cross section of sodium in the range from thermal energy through the 3-kev resonance is generally assumed to be given by the one-level BreitWigner formula, the GAMMA /sub gamma / being selected to describe correctly the known thermal absorption cross section. The contribution of this resonance to the resonance activation integral then turns out to be 0.12 barns. This somewhat indirectly inferred value is considerably larger than the value given by Dancoff et al., in an old paper,… more

BELLOWS FAILURE IN SOLIDS SEPARATION LOOP OF THE HRT MOCKUP

Description: The failure of the valve bellows would appear to be due to a combination of stress corrosion nnd crevice corrosion. Stress corrosion occurred as evidenced by the transgranular branched cracking found in the bellows and in the base which was joined to the bellows. It seems probable that chlorides were present, which, along with the residual stresses present in the bellows assembly, created the necessary conddtions for stress corrosion to occur. Crevice corrosion occurred probably due to heavy de… more
