An analysis of grazing incidence metal mirrors in a laser ICF reactor driver (open access)

An analysis of grazing incidence metal mirrors in a laser ICF reactor driver

Grazing incidence metal mirrors (GIMMs) are examined to replace dielectric mirrors for the final elements in a laser beam line for an inertial confinement fusion reactor. For a laser driver with a wavelength from 250 to 500 nm in a 10-ms pulse, irradiated mirrors made of Al, Al alloys, or Mg were found to have calculated laser damage limits of 0.3--2.3 J/cm{sup 2} of beam energy and neutron lifetime fluence limits of over 5 {times} 10{sup 20} 14 MeV n/cm{sup 2} when used at grazing incidence and operated at room temperature or at 77 K. A final focusing system including mirrors made of Al alloy 7475 at room temperature or at liquid nitrogen temperatures used with a driver which delivers 5 MJ of beam energy in 32 beams would require 32 mirrors of roughly 10 m{sup 2} each. This chapter includes calculations of damage limits for GIMMs and discusses critical issues relevant to the integrity and lifetime of such mirrors in a reactor environment. The reflectivities of various metals are calculated from measured optical constants at room temperature and at cryogenic temperatures for 250- to 500-nm light at both normal and grazing incidence. Then, for the mirrors in a representative …

A 3-D adaptive mesh refinement algorithm for multimaterial gas dynamics (open access)

A 3-D adaptive mesh refinement algorithm for multimaterial gas dynamics

Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) in conjunction with high order upwind finite difference methods has been used effectively on a variety of problems. In this paper we discuss an implementation of an AMR finite difference method that solves the equations of gas dynamics with two material species in three dimensions. An equation for the evolution of volume fractions augments the gas dynamics system. The material interface is preserved and tracked from the volume fractions using a piecewise linear reconstruction technique. 14 refs., 4 figs.

[Fax from D. Jack Davis to Janice Wiggins, December 12, 1991]

Photocopy of a letter from D. Jack Davis to Janice Wiggins that was faxed to her. The letter is about the payment due for the 1992 Summer Institute. Davis agrees to cover a majority of the stipends and funding so long as DISD covers 50% of the stipends for seven of their teams. At the top of the letter is a note that reads "for your files".The facsimile transmission cover sheet is filled in as follows, the date: "12-12-91", sent to: "Janice Wiggins, DISD", to fax machine: "(214)565-5485", from: "D. Jack Davis Provost Office, (817)565-3951". It is filled in as a two page transmission.

Comments on FAST survey (open access)

Comments on FAST survey

The following messages were taken from Inter-office Electronic Mail and provide perspective on the DOE FAST site survey. The key issue is that WSRC analytical groups have been unable to state when processes will be operated and what the exact requirements will be for characterizing materials from those processes when they do start. What results is a uncertainty at the site in the actual analytical work load. Although Donnan refers to the original survey data, one update was submitted to the needs requirements in the fall of 90. However that update was not as complete as the one given below. I have identified some of the people using brackets.

Summary report for 1990 inservice inspection (ISI) of SRS 100-L reactor tank (open access)

Summary report for 1990 inservice inspection (ISI) of SRS 100-L reactor tank

The integrity of the SRS reactor tanks is a key factor affecting their suitability for continued service since, unlike the external piping system and components, the tanks are virtually irreplaceable. Cracking in various areas of the process water piping systems has occurred beginning in about 1960 as a result of several degradation mechanisms, chiefly intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) and chloride-induced transgranular cracking. The primary objective of this inspection was to determine if the accessible welds and selected portions of base metal in the L Reactor tank wall contain any indications of IGSCC. This inspection included areas in and beyond the weld HAZ, extending out as far as two to three inches from the centerline of the welds, plus selected areas of base metal at the intersection of the main tank vertical and mid-girth welds. No evidence of such degradation was found in any of the areas examined. Further, additional inspections were conducted of areas that had been damaged and repaired during original fabrication, and on a sample of areas containing linear indications observed during the 1986 visual inspection of the tank. No evidence of IGSCC or other service induced degradation was detected in these areas, either. The inspection was …

Plasma injection and atomic physics models for use in particle simulation codes (open access)

Plasma injection and atomic physics models for use in particle simulation codes

Models of plasma injection (creation) and charged/neutral atomic physics which are suitable for incorporation into particle simulation codes are described. Both planar and distributed source injection models are considered. Results obtained from planar injection into a collisionless plasma-sheath region are presented. The atomic physics package simulates the charge exchange and impact ionization interactions which occur between charged particles and neutral atoms in a partially-ionized plasma. These models are applicable to a wide range of problems, from plasma processing of materials to transport in the edge region of a tokamak plasma. 18 refs., 6 figs.
