Microwave Michelson Interferometer system report of first use on a railgun, Green Farm, San Diego, CA

Description: This report summarizes the successful first attempt to use a Michelson microwave interferometer to measure the position of a projectile throughout its acceleration by a railgun. The test was performed at the DNA Green Farm facility operated by Maxwell Labs Inc. The test was performed using the ARDEC-ACB gun to accelerate a 1.1 kg polycarbonate projectile-to about 2.5 km/s. The projectile had an initial injection velocity of about 490 m/s.

Robotic weld overlay coatings for erosion control. [Quarterly report, July--September 1993]

Description: In the previous period of work, twelve overlay hardfacing alloys were selected for erosion testing based upon a literature review. All twelve coatings were deposited on 1018 steel substrates using the plasma arc welding process. Ten samples from each coating were prepared for erosion testing. The coating deposition and sample preparation procedures were described in the previous quarterly report. During the past quarter, all the coatings were erosion tested at 400 C. The erosion resistance of e… more

The Reclamation Program of the treatability studies for soil media project

Description: The US Department of Energy is sponsoring a research and demonstration program on the Nevada Test Site to develop and test an optimized cleanup system for large-area, surface plutonium contamination. The project addresses three principle areas: vegetation and soil removal, volume reduction of the displaced soil, and site restoration consisting of soil stabilization and revegetation. Soil stabilization and revegetation are critical in order to prevent erosion and reestablish wildlife habitat. A … more

Accelerator mass spectrometry in biomedical research

Description: Biological effects occur in natural systems at chemical concentrations of parts per billion (1:10{sup 9}) or less. Affected biomolecules may be separable in only milligram or microgram quantities. Quantification at attomole sensitivity is needed to study these interactions. AMS measures isotope concentrations to parts per 10{sup 13--15} on milligram-sized samples and is ideal for quantifying long-lived radioisotopic labels that are commonly used to trace biochemical pathways in natural systems.… more

{sup 14}C-AMS quantification of biomolecular interactions using microbore and plate separations

Description: AMS sensitivity arises from the direct counting of radioisotopes without interference from molecular isobars. No chemical or physical information other than a bulk isotope ratio is available from the usual AMS instrument. Chemical or biological significance of the isotope ratio depends on the definition of the sample prior to conversion to material used in the ion source. The authors use AMS to quantify biochemical interactions between labeled xenobiotics and their potential targets of toxicity… more

Photochemical reduction of uranyl nitrate

Description: The photochemical reduction of uranyl nitrate solutions to tetravalent uranium was investigated as a means of producing uranium dioxide feed for the saltless direct oxide reduction (SDOR) process. At high uranium concentrations, reoxidation of U{sup +4} occurs rapidly. The kinetics of the nitric oxidation of tetravalent uranium depend on the concentrations of hydrogen ion, nitrate ion, nitrous acid, and tetravalent uranium in the same manner as was reported elsewhere for the nitrate oxidation o… more

Numerical methods for analysis of clay tile infills

Description: Recent Department of Energy requirements have led to a comprehensive evaluation of the industrial facilities at the Oak Ridge Y-12 Plant. The structures consist of simply connected steel frames infilled with structural clay tile walls. The objective of the evaluation was to determine the stability of the unreinforced infills, and whether they provide the lateral capacity necessary to resist the moderate seismic hazard at the site. Due to lack of information on the behavior of structural clay ti… more

Program status 4. quarter -- FY 1993: ITER and technology

Description: Work continued on the development of the high-pressure helium-cooled design for the PULSAR reactor study. It was found that the high pressure helium-cooled solid breeder design may be able to breed adequate tritium without the use of Be as the neutron multiplier. Thermal-hydraulic results also indicate that the ARIES-IV shield can be used as the thermal storage component, while keeping outlet coolant temperature constant during the dwell time of about 2 minutes. During this period, two TE{sub 2… more
