Assembly power limits are prescribed for each reactor charge so that the Emergency Cooling System (ECS) will prevent core damage from exceeding specified damage limits during a postulated loss-of-coolant (LOCA) or loss-of-pumping (LOPA) accident. Generic assembly power limits which include a 10% uncertainty factor have been determined for the Mark 16B-31 charge. However, future power limits will not be based on the values, because a new damage model is being developed. These limits can be determined at present if the minimum assembly flows during a LOCA are known.

We present predictions for the rapidity and transverse momentum distributions for inclusive production of bottom quarks at SSC energies, pp ..-->.. bX. Our computations are based on the simplest, lowest-order QCD mechanisms. To estimate uncertainties, we use three different choices for structure functions, G(x,Q), as well as different choices for the evolution scale Q.
