ELECTRON AVALANCHE IN LIQUID XENON

Description: We present detailed measurements of the electron avalanche process in liquid Xenon. The measurements were made by using liquid-Xe-filled proportional chambers with anode diameters of 2.9, 3.5, and 5.0 {approx} to detect 279-keV y rays and measure the photopeak pulse height as a function of applied voltage. The use of uniform pulses of electrons enabled us to discriminate against secondary Townsend processes. We present a table of the first Townsend coefficient a as a function of electric field … more

Input and decayed values of radioactive solid wastes buried in the 200 areas through 1971

Description: Solid radioactive wastes resulting from chemical separations processing of spent reactor fuels have been disposed by burial in trenches in the 200 Areas since 1944. Solid radioactive wastes from other Hanford facilities and from off-site AEC contractors have also been buried in the 200 Areas` Waste Burial Grounds. Since 1970, industrial wastes containing or suspected of containing transuranic radionuclides have been packaged in concrete boxes and {open_quotes}dry wastes{close_quotes} have been … more

Hazards review for electrolytic dissolver installation, Hood 3, 236-Z Building

Description: A comparison of the hazards involved in the existing process and the electrolytic process for dissolving plutonium metal shows that, in the opinion of the review team, no net increase in hazards will occur by operating the electrolytic dissolvers. This new process eliminates several hazardous operations such as metal burning and PuO/sub 2/ powder handling, and reduces operator time and, therefore, exposure. The new facility can be operated safely provided that the recommendations given previous… more

1964 computer run on a laser-imploded capsule

Description: WAZER Alchemy 7b (WA-7b) is a WAZER calculation of a laser-driven micro-implosion of a spherical capsule consisting of a thin gold pusher surrounded by a thick (frozen) deuterium ablator. The properties of the target capsule and the shape of the laser pulse used to irradiate it are described.
