Deep Underground Test Shots

Description: From abstract: "The purpose of this note is to consider the feasibility of conducting kiloton-weapons tests in underground holes sufficiently deep so that the explosion will be effectively contained. Such a shot would have the advantage that it could be detonated independently of weather conditions, and thus would allow greater freedom in the test program."

Development of a Cubic Oxide Protective Film on Zirconium

Description: Observations of the effects of neutron damage to zirconium oxides led to the conclusion that the cubic form of ZrO2 is more stable to such damage than the monoclinic form. It has been reported that zirconium corrodes more rapidly in certain liquids when exposure is made under radiation (neutrons and fission products). It is well known that on heating monoclinic ZrO2 a transformation, monoclinic to tetragonal (very similar to cubic), occurs at about 1500°C. The transformation involves sufficient… more
