In an experimental program recently completed at the 184-inch synchrocyclotron in Berkeley, data were obtained on elastic {pi}{sup +}-p scattering at a laboratory energy of 310 Mev. Quantities measured were the differential cross section, the total cross section, and the polarization of the recoil protons as a function of center-of-mass angle. We have analyzed the data in terms of S, P, and D waves and have obtained only one acceptable solution. The resultant set of phase shifts is of the Fermi type. The D-wave phase shifts are small but definitely needed to obtain an adequate fit to the data. Owing to the relatively high accuracy of the cross-section data and the inclusion of the results of the polarization experiment, the errors on the small phase shifts have been reduced to less than 1{sup 0}. The differential cross-section and polarization data are given in Tables I and II.

Abstract: "Tungsten-rich alloys, developed for use at temperatures up to 2000F, exhibit ductility, fabricability and joinability not found in commercially-available materials. An envelope type of microstructure was produced in compositions containing at least 90 wt% tungsten by liquid-phase sintering of cold-pressed powders in hydrogen. At room temperature the alloys could be rolled extensively, and tensile elongations up to 25% were noted. Strength properties of a W-Ni-Fe base were improved by small quaternary additions. The ultimate tensile strength of a 90W-4.8Ni-3.2Fe-2Ru alloy was 46,700 psi at 2000F, compared to 30,000 - 35,000 psi for unalloyed tungsten or W-Ni-Fe; the 100-hour stress-rupture strength at 1600F was 15,000 psi. Excellent joints were produced by spot welding and localized induction heating. The oxidation resistance of unprotected 90 wt% tungsten compositions was not significantly affected by alloying."

The following document is a note describing the process of building a nuclear density gauge and its improved features in comparison to previously reported density gauges.

This document discusses waste disposal criteria were established on the basis that the occurrence of river flow rates which were 72 cents of normal would not cause the effects of waste disposal to exceed limits. Since even the base case exceeds the criterion for the average body burden of phosphorus-32, provision to reduce the output of this radioisotope must be included in any expansion program. Provision to reduce the output of other radioisotopes will be required for most cases where the bulk outlet temperature limit is 105{degrees} or higher. For reactor flow rates exceeding 100,000 gpm it may be necessary to reduce sodium dichromate concentrations as low as 1.5 ppM during periods of low river flow. Heat output was discussed but no limit was set.

If material received under this program is deemed acceptable for reactor charging, this test will authorize irradiation of fourteen monitor columns which shall be discharged at 200, 400 and 800 MWD/T to observe the performance of this material. This test shall run concurrently with irradiation of quantities up to 60 tons/month to be authorized separately.

Laboratory data of flow rate versus header pressure were obtained for various conditions of nozzle cap removal from C, K and BDF single tube mockups of central zone tube assemblies using I&E slug charges. The data are presented. Suggestions are made for applying the data to DR and H reactors. In general, the effect of a pre-inserted support charge on the flow rate is small, especially with the front nozzle cap on. It should be noted that pre-insertion of an entire (117 inch long) support charge and subsequent front cap replacement is impossible in either a BDF tube with 34 fuel elements or a C tube with 32 fuel elements simply from a length standpoint.

This report records the basis underlying the decision already reached to recommend a change of process tube fittings at B, D, F, DR and H reactors, and also proposes for consideration a change in the devices for monitoring effluent water temperature.

Purpose of this study was to determine the {sup 237}Np input to the Purex process. The {sup 237}Np content of 639 g Pu/ton U irradiated fuel was found to be 1.78 {plus_minus} .09 g/ton of uranium at the 95% confidence level. Standard recovery for the chemical method was 96.7%, 98.0% for the sampling.
