RADIOISOTOPES AND RADIATION APPLICATIONS. Quarterly Progress Report No. 12

Continued research is reported in the areas of intrinsic radioactive tracers for industrial process control and the effects of structural factors on radioinduced graft polymerization. The use of Be-- Po neutron sources for production of short-lived isotopes is being investigated. Data are included on the effects of target volume, high-Z scattering media, target-isotope concentration, and macroscopic cross-section on speciflc and total activation produced with a 10-curie source. Research on graft-polyerization concerning the effects of structure on freetinued. Results indicate that the radical formed in a variety of substituted methacrylate polymers is the same in all cases.

NOVA integrated alignment/diagnostic sensors (open access)

NOVA integrated alignment/diagnostic sensors

Under Contract 3772003 to the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, Aerojet ElectroSystems Company has investigated a number of alignment system design topics for the NOVA and SHIVA upgrade lasers. Prior reports dealt with the Main Beam Alignment System, and with Multipass Amplifier Alignment Concepts. This report, which completes the contract, examines ways in which the Return Beam Diagnostic (RBD) package and Incident Beam Diagnostic (IBD) packages may be reconfigured to a more integrated package. In particular, the report shows that the RBD optics may be directly integrated in the Pointing Focus and Centering (PFC) sensor, and that the IBD optics may use the same basic common configuration as the PFC/RBD package.

Enhanced durability and reactivity for zinc ferrite desulfurization sorbent (open access)

Enhanced durability and reactivity for zinc ferrite desulfurization sorbent

AMAX Research Development Center (AMAX R D) has been investigating methods for enhancing the reactivity and durability of the zinc ferrite desulfurization sorbent. Zinc ferrite sorbents are intended for use in desulfurization of hot coal gas in integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) or molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) applications. For the present program, the reactivity of the sorbent may be defined as its sulfur sorption capacity at the breakthrough point and at saturation in a bench-scale, fixed-bed reactor. Durability may be defined as the ability of the sorbent to maintain important physical characteristics such As size, strength, and specific surface area during 10 cycles of sulfidation and oxidation.

Remote Working Level Monitor. Final report (open access)

Remote Working Level Monitor. Final report

The Remote Working Level Monitor (RWLM) is an instrument used to remotely monitor the RN-daughter concentrations and the Working Level (WL). It is an ac powered, microprocessor based instrument which multiplexes two independent detector units to a single central processor unit (CPU). The CPU controls the actuation of the detector units and processes and outputs the data received from these remote detector units. The remote detector units are fully automated and require no manual operation once they are set up. They detect and separate the alpha emitters of RaA and RaC' as well as detecting the beta emitters of RaB and RaC. The resultant pulses from these detected radioisotopes are transmitted to the CPU for processing. The programmed microprocessor performs the mathematical manipulations necessary to output accurate Rn-daughter concentrations and the WL. A special subroutine within the program enables the RWLM to run and output a calibration procedure on command. The data resulting from this request can then be processed in a separate program on most computers capable of BASIC programming. The calibration program results in the derivation of coefficients and beta efficiencies which provides calibrated coefficients and beta efficiencies.

An Algol Compiler for the Control Data Corporation 1604. Progress Report No. 2

A summary of the progress on development of the ALGOL compiler for the Control Data Corporation 1604 Computer is presented. This computer is based on machine-independent specifications developed at ORNL. A brief description of the structure of the compiler is included along with discussions concerning language restrictions, the hardware language representation, and the required equipment configuration. An example illustrates the generated program instructions. (auth)

Buildup of Fission Products in Reactor Fuel and Coolant With 'Unclad' Fuel Material (open access)

Buildup of Fission Products in Reactor Fuel and Coolant With 'Unclad' Fuel Material

Concentrations of fission products in the fuel and in the coolant stream of a generalized reactor power plant employing unclad fuel material were calculated using actual fission-product chains and wide ranges of assumed values of escape rate from the fuel and removal rate from the coolant stream. The calculations were made on an IBM 704 digital computer. Some typical results are displayed in the form of graphs to illustrate the effects of the variables. As data on escape rates from fuel and removal rates from coolant become available, the tables and graphs developed by this study can be used to estimate the fissionproduct concentration in the coolant stream, which would in turn furnish a basis for determining the degree of coolant purification required to maintain the circulating activity below a given level.

Review of experiments (open access)

Review of experiments

A study was made to examine the effects which raising the ISA from 200 x 200 GeV to 400 x 400 GeV would have on the ''canonical'' experiments. These were ''canonical'' in the sense that they span the full range of foreseeable physics and have served as topics in previous Summer Studies and Workshops which resulted in quite explicit hardware designs and experimental goals. The study results indicate that all of the ''canonical'' experiments survive. Some are actually improved, some are unaffected, and some require changes which are suggested. In general, the 90/sup 0/ experiments are relatively unaffected. The single arm small angle spectrometer, the wide aperture (FATS-WASP) spectrometer and the Coulomb interference experiment have the largest number of modifications suggested. No uniqueness to these solutions are claimed, and there may be more desirable radical approaches. It is, however, felt that the 400 x 400 GeV ISA not only permits the work on conceptual experiments from previous Summer Studies to be taken over entirely, but indicates areas of improvement in many of them. Specifics of the individual experiments are discussed.

Intense transient magnetic-field generation by laser plasma (open access)

Intense transient magnetic-field generation by laser plasma

In a laser system, the return current of a laser generated plasma is conducted near a target to subject that target to the magnetic field thereof. In alternate embodiments the target may be either a small non-fusion object for testing under the magnetic field or a laser-fusion pellet. In the laser-fusion embodiment, the laser-fusion pellet is irradiated during the return current flow and the intense transient magnetic field is used to control the hot electrons thereof to hinder them from striking and heating the core of the irradiated laser-fusion pellet.

Carbide Cathode Studies, Physical and Chemical Redeposition. Quarterly Progress Report, April 1, 1962-June 30, 1962 (open access)

Carbide Cathode Studies, Physical and Chemical Redeposition. Quarterly Progress Report, April 1, 1962-June 30, 1962

The utilization of physical and chemical processes to reduce the rate of vapor loss of thermionic emitters composed of mixed carbides of U and Zr in order to increase the permissible operating temperature is being studied. Preliminary, qualitative results obtained from study of physical redeposition processes showed that increasing the collector temperature may markedly reduce the rate of weight loss from a UC emitter operating at 2053 deg K. The requisite experimental equipment for studies of chemical transport processes was designed and constructed. Experiments will proceed through both a physical chemistry approach to an understanding of the transport processes and a technique to evaluate the efficacy of possible combinations of chemical species by monitoring the electron emission from diodes containing such mixtures.
