Schemes for anti pp interactions at ISABELLE (open access)

Schemes for anti pp interactions at ISABELLE

Various schemes for obtaining anti pp interactions are outlined, and the luminosities obtainable for each case calculated. In the simplest realistic case, a luminosity of 1.3 x 10/sup 29/ is obtained with a 13 hour filling time. The addition of special rf systems in both the AGS and ISABELLE give a scheme with luminosity 8 x 10/sup 29/ in 6 hours. The use of stochastic cooling to stack raises the luminosity to as high as 10/sup 31/ but the filling time is then 68 hours. Finally a scheme is considered that uses a special 30 GeV capture ring. With this, a luminosity of 10/sup 31/ could be achieved after 20 hours, or higher if a larger filling time were acceptable. Further gains could be made if a smaller proton spot on the target is used but a simple calculation suggests that even the spot size assumed may explode the target too fast.

Computer program SCAP-BR for gamma-ray streaming through multi-legged ducts (open access)

Computer program SCAP-BR for gamma-ray streaming through multi-legged ducts

A computer program, SCAP-BR, has been developed at Burns and Roe for the gamma-ray streaming analysis through multi-legged ducts. SCAP-BR is a modified version of the single scattering code, SCAP, incorporating capabilities of handling multiple scattering and volumetric source geometries. It utilizes the point kernel integration method to calculate both the line-of-sight and scattered gamma dose rates by employing the ray tracing technique through complex shield geometries. The multiple scattering is handled by a repeated process of the single scatter method through each successive scatter region and collapsed pseudo source meshes constructed on the relative coordinate systems. The SCAP-BR results have been compared with experimental data for a Z-type (three-legged) concrete duct with a Co-60 source placed at the duct entrance point. The SCAP-BR dose rate predictions along the duct axis demonstrate an excellent agreement with the measured values.

Input and decayed values of radioactive liquid wastes discharged to the ground in the 200 Areas through 1975 (open access)

Input and decayed values of radioactive liquid wastes discharged to the ground in the 200 Areas through 1975

Low and intermediate level liquid wastes from chemical separations processing of spent reactor fuel elements have been discharged to the ground in the 200-Areas since 1944. Large volumes of process cooling water, normally free of radioactive contaminants, are discharged to surface ditches or natural surface depressions (ponds). Lesser volumes of liquid waste such as steam condensates, process condensates, scavenged process waste supernatants, and plutonium processing wastes have been, or are being discharged to subsurface disposal sites (cribs). Only input volumes and radioactivity discharged to each disposal site have been reported periodically.

Analysis of costs and benefits for eight powerplant productivity improvement projects. Project 1, Task 3. Final report (open access)

Analysis of costs and benefits for eight powerplant productivity improvement projects. Project 1, Task 3. Final report

In 1976, DOE (FEA) sponsored the development of a systematic methodology for the identification and analysis of candidate projects which a utility might undertake to improve baseload unit reliability. This methodology also enabled the user to estimate a project's effect on the future performance of the unit. A project was sponsored in Illinois to demonstrate the methodology and to encourage increased power plant productivity in the state. A total of 8 improvement projects were conducted and analyzed at Illinois Power Company Wood River 5 and Commonwealth Edison Company Quad Cities 1 and 2 units. A general description of the approach followed in estimating costs and benefits and in presenting the results for the 8 projects is provided. A brief technical description of the projects and their total cost, total benefits, net present value, and benefit-to-cost ratio is given. Detailed cost and benefit summaries for each project are presented followed by a discussion of the results.

Stop bandwidths of nonlinear beam-beam resonances (open access)

Stop bandwidths of nonlinear beam-beam resonances

A general expression is given for the stop bandwidths, ..delta nu../sub N/, of nonlinear beam-beam resonances, which is expanded in powers of Y(s), the vertical beam orbit, and which is valid under certain assumptions regarding the orbits and charge distributions near the interaction regions. This result is applied to obtain results for the rms ..delta nu../sub N/ due to random vertical orbit errors, and due to random errors in ..beta../sub y/ at the crossing points. Numerical results are given for the ISABELLE storage accelerator.

Preliminary characterization of the pressure suppression experiment load response and source analysis: air test series. [BWR] (open access)

Preliminary characterization of the pressure suppression experiment load response and source analysis: air test series. [BWR]

Data from air tests conducted on the 1/5-Scale Model Mark I Pressure Suppression Facility at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory were analyzed for the purpose of determining the various sources of load signature characteristics. It was determined that hydrodynamic vertical loading function embodies effects from: (a) momentum flux associated with flow from the downcomers; (b) momentum rate associated with bulk pool motion; and (c) unbalanced internal pressure forces related to phenomena associated with vent clearing. The integral form of the linear momentum equation is used to derive qualitative and quantitative insight into the mechanics of the hydrodynamic loading function. Amplitude spectra derived from Fourier transformations show that the 25 Hz (approximate) structural mode is the only frequency which appears consistently in all wave forms which were spectrum analyzed.

Environmental geology workshop for the Geysers--Calistoga known geothermal resources area (open access)

Environmental geology workshop for the Geysers--Calistoga known geothermal resources area

Lawrence Livermore Laboratory (LLL) is studying ways in which the environmental quality of The Geysers-Calistoga known geothermal resources area may be protected from any significant harmful consequences of future geothermal development. The LLL study includes the effects of development on air and water quality, geology, the ecosystem, socioeconomics, and noise. The Geothermal Resource Impact Projection Study (GRIPS) has grants to undertake similar work. On 28 and 29 November 1977, LLL and GRIPS jointly sponsored a workshop at Sonoma State College at which knowledgeable earth scientists presented their views on the potential geological hazards of geothermal development. The workshop produced recommendations for studies in geological mapping, slope stability, subsidence, seismicity, and groundwater hydrology. These recommendations will be evaluated along with other considerations and in conjunction with the other subjects of the LLL study. The results of the study will be contained in a preplanning report of final recommendations to the Department of Energy.
