K-edge densitometer (KED)

Description: In 1979, a K-edge densitometer (KED) was installed by the Safeguards Assay group from Los Alamos National Laboratory in the PNC reprocessing plant at Tokai-mura, Japan. It uses an active nondestructive assay technique, KED, to measure the plutonium concentration of the product solution. The measurement uncertainty of an assay depends on the count time chosen, but can be 0.5% or better. The computer hardware and software were upgraded in 1992. This manual describes the operation of the instrumen… more

Silicon crystal under bending

Description: The mechanical behavior of a silicon crystal under bending is investigated. For a crystal of length 30 mm and thickness 3 mm, to achieve the specified bend angle of 0.64 mrad, the appropriate angle of the aluminum punches is 0.96 mrad.

HIJET with AGS physics and N[sup *]'s

Description: We investigate the effects of secondary interactions in nucleus- nucleus and proton-nucleus collisions using a modified HIJET Monte Carlo generator. The effects of N[sup *] production is explored and it is found that the numbers of kaons can almost be explained by their inclusion. However the transverse momentum spectrum of the kaons is not explained, since their production in HIJET is a soft secondary scattering process and not a hot thermal process like the data.

Neutral strange particle production at the AGS

Description: We present the results of [Lambda] and K[sub s[sup o]] production from Si and Pb targets with 14.6[times][Lambda] Gev/c Si beams. The measured rapidity distributions and the transverse mass exponential slopes are presented and compared with models.

ESCAPAID Project Plan: (ESCAPAID = Electronic Systems Contract Administration Payment And Invoicing Database)

Description: The Electronic Systems Contract Administration Payment And Invoicing Database (ESCAPAID) project is a cooperative effort to simplify and automate the contracting and billing of services between Digital Equipment Corporation (Digital) and Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL).The ESCAPAID project is intended to improve productivity in both organizations by reducing the inaccuracies and the amount of manual effort in the current system. Within LANL, the project is intended to streamline operation… more

An experimental investigation of stimulated Brillouin scattering in laser-produced plasmas relevant to inertial confinement fusion

Description: Despite the apparent simplicity of controlled fusion, there are many phenomena which have prevented its achievement. One phenomenon is laser-plasma instabilities. An investigation of one such instability, stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), is reported here. SBS is a parametric process whereby an electromagnetic wave (the parent wave) decays into another electromagnetic wave and an ion acoustic wave (the daughter waves). SBS impedes controlled fusion since it can scatter much or all of the i… more

Development of advanced NO{sub x} control concepts for coal-fired utility boiler. Quarterly technical progress report No. 7, April 1, 1992--June 30, 1992

Description: Hybrid technologies for the reduction of NO{sub x} emissions from coal-fired utility boilers have shown the potential to offer greater levels of NO{sub x} control than the sum of the individual technologies, leading to more cost effective emissions control strategies. Energy and Environmental Research Corporation (EER) has developed a hybrid NO{sub x} control strategy involving two proprietary concepts which has the potential to meet the US Department of Energy`s NO{sub x} reduction goal at a s… more

SDC preshower depth and weighting factor using hanging file data

Description: Often inert material exists in front of a calorimeter. If an electromagnetic (EM) shower initiates in this material, and energy is not sampled by the calorimeter, then energy resolution will be degraded. It is crucial to minimize the amount of inert material. Algorithms using a separate readout of the energy early in the shower (a ``preshower`` detector) can also be used to alleviate the reduced performance. This problem has previously been studied using CDF test beam data. In addition, an EGS … more
