Radioactive Deposits on the Haputa Ranch, Custer County, Colorado

From abstract: An area 2,200 feet long and 400 to 1,300 feet wide within the Haputa ranch, Custer County, Colo., has been mapped at a scale 1:1,200. The rocks in this area consist of quartz-hornblende schist, granite gneiss, hornblende-andesine gneiss, gabbro and peridotite, microcline granite, and pegmatite, of pre-Cambrian age, and lamprophyre dikes of Tertiary age.

Focusing in Linear Ion Accelerators (open access)

Focusing in Linear Ion Accelerators

Abstract: "The results of the investigation of three methods of obtaining transverse stability in linear accelerators for ions are presented and discussed. For electric or magnetic quadrupole focusing the range of stable operation, oscillation amplitudes, and the operation of an actual grid is analyzed from measurements of the field distribution. Finally, the formulas applicable to focusing by axial magnetic lenses are presented."

Dr. Johnson's Lectures to the ARC Research Group

Abstract: "These notes were written from recordings of a series of lectures which Dr. Montgomery H. Johnson presented to the ARC Research Group of the University of California Radiation Laboratory, Livermore, during January, February and March of 1954. In the lectures he discussed plasma oscillations and the penetration of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields into plasmas. Dr. Johnson plainly did not attempt rigorous or exhaustive treatments of these subjects but rather contented himself for the most part with the introduction of ideas in the simplest manner possible."

Engineering Study of Evaporation for Concentrating Radioactive Liquid Wastes : Engineering Research Final Report

Summary: "The problem of evaporation of secondary radioactive wastes resulting from waste disposal studies at Mound Laboratoy has been studied experimentally to determine the fundamental design characteristics of a plant size unit. Emphasis, of course, was on decontamination, but the factors affecting foaming and scaling also had to be investigated and evaluated. Generally speaking, the final design is a standard type of evaporator, the only unique feature being the relation of the two effects. Where critical, as affecting performance, the particular design features have been specified."
