The Constitution Diagram of Uranium-Rich Uranium-Molybdenum Alloys

The colybdenum-uranium equilibrium diagram has been studied, and the results are presented up to 50 atomic per cent molybdenum. Additions of molybdenum raise the melting point of uranium, forming a peritectic at about 1285 C. The solubility of molybdenum in gamma uranium is extensive. It decreases from 42 atomic per cent at the peritect temperature to 30 per cent at lower temperatures. Allots of about 28 to 30 per cent molybdenum content have been found to contain a metastable gamma. It can be transformed by cold work and prolonged annealing at temperatures below 575 to 600 C. X-ray diffraction studies of the transition product in epsilon phase indicate tht it has a tetragonal structure. The beta-uranium region is lowered by molybdenum additions to produce a eutectoid transformation at 658 ± 5 C. The maximum beta solubility is about 1.0 atomic per cent molybdenum. The alpha-uranium solubility is less than in the beta region, or about 0.5 per cent molybdenum at 600 C.

The Valve-Actuated Pulse Column Design and Operation (open access)

The Valve-Actuated Pulse Column Design and Operation

A countercurrent extraction column is described which employs timed solenoid valves and pressurized feeds to provide a pulsing action to disperse the phases. The steps in the pulsing cycle are independent and thus provide greater separation of the operating variables than is possible with conventional pulse columns. The column described is particularly useful as a resesrch tool for the study of extraction mechanism although a larger installation operating on the same principles should be quite workable. The 4-stage-cycle or mixersettler type column operation has an inherent advantage in that the rapid coalescence and redispersion of phases are believed to lead to greater extraction than simple movement of a dispersed phase through a continuous medium. In addition, the sharp pulse provided should produce greater turbulence than the more conventional pulsing arrangement. Some results of operation on the extraction and stripping of uranyl nitrate using tributyl phosphate as a solvent are included. These data correspond to Metal Recovery and Erex type systems. (auth)

NUCLEAR SHELL STRUCTURE AND $beta$-DECAY I. ODD A NUCLEI II. EVEN A NUCLEI

A systematics is given of all transitions for odd A nuclei for which sufficiently reliable data are available. The allowed or forbidden characters of the transitions are correlated with the positions of the initial and final odd nucleon groups in the nuclear shell scheme. The nuclear shells show definite characteristics with respect to parity of the ground states. The latter is the same as the one obtained from known spins and magnetic moments in a one-particle interpretation.

Grain Refinement of Uranium By Alloying

Binary alloys of uranium with 38 elements in the range 0.01 to 1.0 at.% were made. Three alloys havirg nominal compositions of 0.01, 0.1, and 1.0 at.% were made with most of the elements, and in addition, 12 ternary and quaternary alloys were made. The alloys were cast, rolled to 7/8-inch-diameter bars, heat treated, and examined for grain size. (auth)
