Off-Site Radiological Safety Report, Carlsbad, New Mexico (open access)

Off-Site Radiological Safety Report, Carlsbad, New Mexico

A summary ls presented of the off-slte radiological safety actlvities of the U. S. Public Health Service during the Project Gnome operation. Topics dlscussed include: operational procedures; collection of data by aerial monltoring, mobile monitoring, potash mlne surveys, air sampling, milk sampllng, water sampling, soil and vegetation sampllng, and a film badge program; laboratory control, emergency measures; medlcal services; and veterinary activltles. It was concluded that no persons ln the vlclnlty of the Gnome test site recelved harmful amounts of radlation either lnternally or externally. (M.C.G.)

Upper Atmosphere Re-Entry Study High Altitude Burnup. Volume 2 (open access)

Upper Atmosphere Re-Entry Study High Altitude Burnup. Volume 2

Methods of determining the fate of radioactive fuels in space power units burned up on re-entry into the earth's atmosphere are reviewed. Particulate characteristics experiments were derived from an analytical study on the ablation of Dlutonium fuel. This study revealed that the particulate size distribution resulting on re-entry burnup is a function of: the fuel form in use and the material velocity and atmospheric density at the time the fuel is exposed. The particulate fate experiments were derived essentially from studies of the effects of thermal and turbulent diffusion, and wind and gravity dispersion on the particulate cloud. The experiments recommended are described. (M.C.G.)

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF A SODIUM-COMPONENT TEST INSTALLATION (open access)

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF A SODIUM-COMPONENT TEST INSTALLATION

The instellation is designed primarily for operational testing of Na- heated steam generators and intermediate heat exchangers suitable as prototype components for large, Na-cooled power plants. Other types of Na components can also be tested in the facility. The instellation consists of a 35-Mwt gas-fired Na heat source, a main primary-Na system, a main secondary-Na system, a water- steam system, and a set-up for heat rejection to air. (J.R.D.)

CHARGING AND DISCHARGING OF DEMINERALIZER RESINS. CORE I, SEED 2. Test Results (T-612085). Section 1 (open access)

CHARGING AND DISCHARGING OF DEMINERALIZER RESINS. CORE I, SEED 2. Test Results (T-612085). Section 1

An investigation was conducted to flush the 1BD coolant purification system demineralizer of resin and to measurc the radiation level at pornts on the resin discharge line. It was found that the system demineralizer was satisfactorily flushed of resin. It was also found that the amount removed is measured by the amount required to recharge the demineralizer. (J.R.D.)

Analysis of the Initial Nuclear Superheat Critical Experiments. Supplementary Study Related to Bonus and Nuclear Superheat Programs (open access)

Analysis of the Initial Nuclear Superheat Critical Experiments. Supplementary Study Related to Bonus and Nuclear Superheat Programs

A critical experiment program is carried out in a configuration similar to the BONUS reactor. The results give information concerning: the effects of different boilersuperheater geometries; the reactivity changes associated with superheater voiding or flooding; power regulation between the boiler and superheater regions; epithermal transmission probabilities for B-stainless steel and Cd control rods; the power flattening characteristics; and void simulation properties. The calculational methods used in the study predict the measured reactivity and power distribution to within the limits of experimental accuracy. (T.F.H.)

SNAP-8, the First Electric Propulsion Power System (open access)

SNAP-8, the First Electric Propulsion Power System

The SNAP-8 Electrical Generating System is a nuclearturbo-electric space power plant -which is ideally suited for utilization with electric propulsion. Several applications, the program objectives, the over-all system, and the design of the major components are described. The program status is delineated and future plans leading to an early flight test and equipment endurance demonstration are defined. (auth)

Chemistry of Anhydrous Systems Containing Hydrogen Fluoride and Nitrogen Oxides (open access)

Chemistry of Anhydrous Systems Containing Hydrogen Fluoride and Nitrogen Oxides

Nitrosyl and fluoride ions are formed in liquid anhydrous hydrogen fluoride when nitric oxide, nitrogen sesquioxide, nitrogen tetroxide, or nitrosyl fluoride, are dissolved. Vapor infrared analysis was used to study the solution composition and gaseous reaction products. These solutions react with metallic uranium, plutonium, zirconium, iron, and aluminum, as well as ceramic uranium oxide and uranium carbide, forming soluble nitrosyl metal fluoride complexes and liberating nitric oxide. The uranium compound identified as nitrosylium hexafluorouranate, NOUF/sub 6/, was made volatile by passing nitrosyl fluoride gas over the dry salt at 500 deg C. (auth)

Photograph taken for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "When women walk into the shoe shop of William Cherry and are greeted, "good morning, pretty lady," some become indignant, others smile. Almost immediately they learn the voice comes from an improvised tree, sheltered in a corner of the shop. It is from this location that 'Jasper' greets customers daily. Not an ordinary parrot, Jasper can trace his ancestry back to more than 100 years ago, and has his master to thank for his existence."
