MTR Test Equipment (open access)

MTR Test Equipment

From abstract: "Sample holders and monitoring equipment were designed and fabricated for use in the irradiation of experimental shapes of fuel and target materials in the beryllium reflector of the Materials Testing Reactor. The samples were held in aluminum cases designed to replace certain beryllium blocks of the reflector. Sample holders of alternate designs were made to permit irradiation of samples in the reflector at locations where the shape or position of the reflector blocks would not permit the use of the original design."

A Simple Leak Detector for Tritium (open access)

A Simple Leak Detector for Tritium

From abstract: "An ionization chamber of the integrating type was built that could detect a tritium leak rate of 10[^-13] cc per second within a few minutes, after a gas-collecting period of 16 hours. Electronic circuitry was avoided by using a quartz fiber voltmeter to indicate the rate of discharge of the chamber."

Aging of Al-Li Alloys - Part I (open access)

Aging of Al-Li Alloys - Part I

Technical report outlining experiments on aluminum-lithium alloys. From Abstract: "Aluminum-lithium alloys are subject to precipitation from solid solution, and may be age hardened by the same techniques used for more common aluminum alloys. Spherical particles of precipitate were observed with the electron microscope in 1.5% and 2.8% Al-Li alloys after aging for times comparable to those required to produce maximum hardness. Rod-shaped particles that were oriented parallel to either the (110) or the (111) planes of the aluminum matrix were observed in overaged specimens."
