Effects of misalignments of the solenoid of the colliding-beams detector on the orbit of the beams

Description: Because the solenoid is very weak for 1 TeV beams, the alignment tolerances as far as the beams are concerned can be negligibly loose (The tolerances will be determined rather by accuracies for the measurement and analysis of particle tracks.) and there is no need to compensate for its orbital effects.

Engineering testing requirements in FED/INTOR

Description: The FED/INTOR critical issues activity has addressed three key testing requirements that have the largest impact on the design, operation and cost of FED/INTOR. These are: (1) the total testing time (fluence) during the device lifetime, (2) the minimum number of back-to-back cycles, and (3) the neutron wall load (power density in the first wall/blanket). The testing program activities were structured into three tasks in order to define the benefits, and in some cases, costs and risks of these t… more

Fluid flow model of the Cerro Prieto geothermal field based on well log interpretation

Description: The subsurface geology of the Cerro Prieto geothermal field was analyzed using geophysical and lithologic logs. The distribution of permeable and relatively impermeable units and the location of faults are shown in a geologic model of the system. By incorporating well completion data and downhole temperature profiles into the geologic model, it was possible to determine he direction of geothermal fluid flow and the role of subsurface geologic features that control this movement.

Design considerations for the Fermilab test RFQ

Description: A new concept in low energy proton/ion accelerators is being developed at accelerator facilities throughout the world. This concept is labeled the RFQ linac (Radio-Frequency Quadrupole) and was first proposed by Kapchinskii and Teplyakov and more extensively developed by scientists at Los Alamos, where precise design procedures are being developed and a proof of principle experiment was performed. RFQ design and construction is currently being undertaken by groups at almost every major laborato… more

Studies of injection into naturally fractured reservoirs

Description: A semi-analytical model for studies of cold water injection into naturally fractured reservoirs has been developed. The model can be used to design the flow rates and location of injection wells in such systems. The results obtained using the model show that initially the cold water will move very rapidly through the fracture system away from the well. Later on, conductive heat transfer from the rock matrix blocks will retard the advancement of the cold water front, and eventually uniform energ… more

Stability of tube rows in crossflow. [LMFBR]

Description: A mathematical model for the instability of tube rows subjected to crossflow is examined. The theoretical model, based on the fluid-force data for a pitch-to-diameter ratio of 1.33, provides additional insight into the instability phenomenon. Tests are also conducted for three sets of tube rows. The effects of mass ratio, tube pitch, damping, detuning and finned tubes are investigated. Theoretical results and experimental data are in good agreement.

Analysis of radionuclide concentrations and movement patterns of Hanford-site mule deer

Description: From 1980 through 1982, the movements of 37 radio-collared mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) were monitored for periods of 3 to 17 months on the Handord Site in southcentral Washington. The objectives were to compare radionuclide concentrations in deer residing near the 200 Area waste management sites with concentrations in deer occupying areas remote from waste management sites and to document movement patterns of Hanford Site deer with particular emphasis on offsite movements. Cesium-137 in dee… more

Simple nocturnal slope-flow data from the Rattlesnake Mountain site

Description: Detailed vertical profiles of the wind and temperture structure of nocturnal slope flows were measured at a site that is uniform in the cross-slope direction. The upper part of the slope closely approximates a simple, tilted plane. These measurements were made from three towers at different distances from the ridge crest, each of which extended through the local depth of the katabatic flow. The tower wind and temperature data from the four best cases of slope flow observed in 1980 and 1981 are … more

Measurement of the response of an SCG1-C scintillation glass shower detector to 2 to 17. 5 GeV positrons

Description: We have measured the response of an electromagnetic shower counter constructed from the new scintillation glass (SCG1-C, Ohara Optical Glass, Inc.) to positrons in the energy range 2 to 17.5 GeV. We have measured the energy resolution of this 18.4 radiation length detector plus its attendant SF5 lead glass shower counter array to be sigma/E = (1.64 +- 0.14)% + (1.13 +- 0.33)%/..sqrt..E with the constant term dominated by variations in the conversion point of the positron and shower leakage.

Application of the Green's function method to some nonlinear problems of an electron storage ring: Part 2, Checking the method by a quadrupole perturbation

Description: In the first part of this work I described a general approach to some storage ring problems. The basic concept and the main equations were developed there. The next natural step in this work should be an application of the developed technique to some particular nonlinear problem. Instead, I found it useful to apply the method to the case of a field gradient perturbation first. This happened to be plausible not only as a check of the method, but, more importantly, as a way to resolve several tro… more

Versatile secondary trigger for a multi-detector system

Description: The electronics of a secondary trigger for particle physics is described. The system has several desirable features that solve track recognition problems in situations where several subsystems of various cell configurations participate in the decision making. Track curvature and multiplicity are the criteria used. Versatility is attained through the use of programmable Array Logic (PAL) and a 48-bit wide ROM-based sequencer that determines, with the resolution of a cell, the participation of ea… more
