Heavy mass states (open access)

Heavy mass states

The indirect evidence for the production of a heavy lepton and direct evidence for the product of a new hadronic state or states in proton-proton interactions is considered for the interpretation requiring the existence of two more leptons and two new quarks. It is shown that such a picture is consistent and in good agreement with existing data. The new structure is located at M = 9.54 GeV/c/sup 2/ and is much wider than the experimental resolution. Also it is asymmetric, suggesting the presence of several resonances. 7 references. (JFP)

''Figure of merit'' Q/. mu. /sub max//sup 2/3/, for beam transport through periodic focussing systems (open access)

''Figure of merit'' Q/. mu. /sub max//sup 2/3/, for beam transport through periodic focussing systems

A discussion is given of a figure of merit indicative of the stability of high intensity beam transport systems. A table is provided giving this quantity under various conditions, and the limits for solenoidal focusing systems are obtained. (PMA)

Engineering problems of future neutral beam injectors (open access)

Engineering problems of future neutral beam injectors

Because there is no limit to the energy or power that can be delivered by a neutral-beam injector, its use will be restricted by either its cost, size, or reliability. Studies show that these factors can be improved by the injector design, and several examples, taken from mirror reactor studies, are given.

Analysis of Lime-Slurry Stirred Tank Carbonation Reactor (open access)

Analysis of Lime-Slurry Stirred Tank Carbonation Reactor

Gas residence time distributions were determined for a stirred tank carbonation reactor. Empirical correlations for the first and second moments of the residence time distribution (RTD) curves as functions of flow rates and impeller speeds were obtained. Decontamination factors for /sup 85/Kr were measured.

40-kV, 25-ms neutral-beam power supply for TMX (open access)

40-kV, 25-ms neutral-beam power supply for TMX

Modifications are described to upgrade the neutral-beam power supply for the TMX from 40 kV, 10 ms to 40 kV, 25 ms. The redesign of the accel and suppressor power supplies to achieve separation of the high-voltage and control sections, operation of the arc pulse lines in series, operation of the arc pulse lines in a noisy environment with SCR trigger and crowbar, and modifications to the electrolytic storage banks are discussed.

Progress report for the Division of Safeguards and Security: January--June 1977 (open access)

Progress report for the Division of Safeguards and Security: January--June 1977

Development of the calorimeter equilibrium prediction program has been completed, and tests of the software program have been conducted on calorimeters ranging from 1 to 6 in. (2.5 to 15 cm) in diameter and power inputs between 0.1 and 8.3 W. Equilibrium values have been predicted with relative accuracies of better than 0.1% (95% confidence) and with an average time improvement factor of 2.1, which represents a 52% time saving, for every test case. A computer code is being developed by the University of Cincinnati to describe the steady-state heat transfer in a resistance bridge calorimeter. The computer program which is based on the theory of heat transfer analysis by finite differences has been written and is being checked against experimental data. Following the development of the steady-state code, work will commence on the transient heat flow analysis. The effect of R. Gunnink's new plutonium branching ratios on previous plutonium isotopic ratio measurements is demonstrated. For measurements relative to plutonium-239 the biases change from between 2 and 7% low to between 2 and 13% high. For measurements relative to plutonium-241 the changes in bias are within the statistical uncertainties normally reported for these peaks. In preparation for the proposed demonstration …

Heat transfer research and power cycle transient modeling (open access)

Heat transfer research and power cycle transient modeling

Fine axial flutes enhance heat transfer in vertical shell-and-tube exchangers with water inside the tubes and ammonia evaporating or condensing in layer flow on the shell side. Single-tube experiments with R-11 and ammonia indicate local shell-side coefficients 3 to 5 times those for corresponding smooth tubes. Single-tube experiments with water indicate that at moderate velocities the tube-side coefficients are enhanced by a factor equal to the ratio of fluted-to-smooth surface areas while the fluid friction is similarly increased. The experimental data are transformed into mean individual coefficients for ammonia and water. Overall coefficients for a particular case are presented to illustrate the efficacy of enhancement by flutes on one or both sides of the heat transfer surface. Means are described for using emerging data to predict the static and dynamic behavior of the power cycle and the interactions of components throughout the complete power plant.

Evaluation of extraction chromatography for americium recovery (open access)

Evaluation of extraction chromatography for americium recovery

Extraction, or reverse-phase partition chromatography, as used mostly for analytical separations, employs an organic solvent extractant as a stationary phase on an inert support material. This technique, which has the advantage of utilizing the versatility of solvent extraction systems with the less expensive operation of ion exchange equipment, was evaluated for a process to recover low level concentrations of americium from acidic process waste streams at Rocky Flats. The bidentate organophosphorous extractant DHDECMP (dihexyl-N, N-diethylcarbamylmethylene phosphonate) was used as the stationary phase since it was shown to effectively scavenge americium from acidic waste streams without significantly extracting impurity ions. Over 30 support materials were evaluated for DHDECMP capacity and for their ability to retain the extractant. Of the supports tested, the Amberlite XAD macroreticular sorbents were found to have the highest DHDECMP capacity. Amberlite XAD-4 beads retained the extractant significantly better than the other supports evaluated. Thus, this solvent was tested for americium breakthrough capacity and compared to the theoretical capacity.
