COMP: a BASIC language nonlinear least-squares curve fitting program
COMP is an interactive nonlinear least squares routine written in BASIC language and used to obtain estimates of parameters in nonlinear functions and to approximate their associated statistical errors. The program uses the linearizing (or Taylor Series) expansion of partial derivatives outlined in Draper and Smith, (1966, pp. 267 to 270). Therefore, partial derivatives must be supplied (as well as the function) by the user for any new models not currently contained in the programs. When a linearizing method is used to estimate parameters in a nonlinear model, all the usual procedures of linear regression theory can be applied. However, the results so obtained are only valid insofar as the linearized form approximates the true model. All of the statistics computed by COMP should be viewed with this restriction in mind. The output of COMP includes the variance-covariance matrix, t-tests for parameters, Von Neumann's ratio, observed, predicted and residual values, the error mean square, and an optional procedure to evaluate heteroscedasticity.

Digital SLIFER Recorder, Model A. [Underground nuclear explosions]
The Digital SLIFER Recorder (DSR) is an instrument that records a time-varying frequency signal in the range from 700 kHz to 1500 kHz with an amplitude greater than 200 mV. This signal is referenced to an input fiducial marker, and recording is initiated by an increase in the frequency of the signal. The primary purpose of this instrument is to record data from the SLIFER system. The DSR records 512 samples after the record trigger signal, with a sample interval of 50 ..mu..s (for a total recording time of 25.55 ms). The measurement essentially uses a 20-cycle period-averaging counter technique.

ACORN: a computer program for plotting fault trees. [In FORTRAN for CDC Cyber 74]
A description and user instructions are presented for ACORN, a FORTRAN computer program for drawing fault trees. ACORN analyzes the input logical structure of a fault tree and provides data for CalComp plot of the tree. AND, OR, and INHIBIT gates are permitted, and basic events are drawn as diamonds, circles, or houses. Each component (gate or basic event) can have a descriptive label within a rectangle attached to the top of its respective symbol. Tree logic is input as a set of FORTRAN statements, each defining a gate in terms of logical operations of the components input to it. ACORN develops the logical structure of the tree from the input statements. The tree's physical structure is developed by assigning relative spatial coordinates to the logical relationships between a gate and its inputs. ACORN provides input data checking, a printer plot of the fault tree, and plotting data for a CalComp model 763 plotter. The program is operational on a CONTROL DATA CYBER 74 computer. 2 figures, 1 table.

Investigation of impurity radiation from a well diganosed, laser heated plasma sample. Final report
The results are described of an experimental and theoretical program designed to measure the relative intensities of line radiation from various ionization stages of carbon and helium impurities added to a deuterium plasma, and to relate the observed line intensity ratios to the plasma temperature. A deuterium sample plasma is produced and heated to a temperature of 2 to 7 eV at an electron density of 5 x 10/sup 16/ cm/sup -3/. The plasma parameters are monitored at various discrete times during the plasma decay using the Thomson scattering system. Simultaneously, the same sample volume is observed in the visible region of the spectrum using a streak camera coupled to a spectrograph. A continuous record of the plasma visible spectrum is thus obtained during the plasma time history, with at one specific time a data point on the plasma parameters, n/sub e/ and T/sub e/. Modifications were made to the plasma sample facility to shorten the duration of the preionization current and to increase its magnitude. This modification accomplished the desired effect of increasing the electron density in the heated plasma to 5 x 10/sup 16/, essentially obtaining full filling density. Additional insulation was added to the solenoid and satisfactory …

Multiperipheral ring dynamics and a definition of the complete twisted Reggeon loop. [Diagonalization, naturality, threshold behavior, Regge cuts, complex helicity]
The t less than 0 multiperipheral formalism of Ciafaloni, DeTar, Misheloff, Mueller, Muzinich and Yesian is reviewed, extended, and applied to the ordered S-matrix whose ring amplitudes comprise the zeroth level of the topological expansion. Toller M-function notation is used throughout. The bootstrap and cylinder problems are formulated in terms of a well defined helicity pole propagator; a definition of the complete twisted Reggeon loop, which appears in the one-twist term of the cylinder, is given as a helicity pole expansion. Some consideration is given to the following subjects: diagonalization, naturality, threshold behavior, Regge cuts, and complex helicity.

Radio chemistry as a diagnostic in laser fusion experiments
Nuclear chemistry techniques have been employed in an attempt to measure the density of high compression laser fusion targets. Radioactive /sup 28/Al atoms formed in the /sup 28/Si(n,p)/sup 28/Al reaction arising from the interaction of the 14 MeV neutrons with the silicon atoms in the glass microsphere have been counted at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory using a ..beta..-..gamma.. coincidence method. The detection system that is employed allows activities corresponding to 100 aluminum atoms to be measured. From the observed number of activated atoms, neutron yields, and code calculations, information on the density of the compressed fuel can be obtained. This method is particularly valuable when the target compression becomes great enough to prohibit previously employed diagnostic techniques to be used. In addition, technique which utilizes a radioactive tracer to measure the isotropy of the target debris blowoff will also be discussed.

Improved ceramic heat exchanger material
Various ceramic materials in the form of small, monolithic bars were screened as candidate materials in heat exchanger structures for automotive gas turbine engines. The material finally selected consists of 60 w/o* petalite (LAS) and 40 w/o of a recrystallizable glass which converts during thermal processing to cordierite (MAS). This new material, GE-3200, was fabricated by Coors Porcelain Company into a circular honeycomb structure 53.3 cm diameter and 10.2 cm thick (21'' x 4'') and having 69.8 holes/cm/sup 2/ (450 holes/in./sup 2/) of rectangular geometry. Dimensions of each cell are about 2.5 mm x 0.5 mm (0.1'' x 0.02'') with wall thicknesses about 0.20 mm (0.008''). Small bar-shaped specimens of the honeycomb were used to measure thermal, chemical, and mechanical properties and for macro- and microstructure examination. Cylindrical honeycomb specimens about 15.2 cm diameter and 10.2 in. thick (6'' x 4'') were sent to Ford Motor Company and are currently being tested in a gas turbine engine. Data obtained from testing the bar-shaped honeycomb specimens of GE-3200 and from testing bar-shaped honeycomb specimens of Corning 9455 were compared. Results indicate that GE-3200 has significantly better resistance to sulfuric acid and to sodium chloride than Corning 9455; thermal expansion of GE-3200 …

Secondary defects in quenched platinum
The structure of secondary defects in two different platinum purities quenched under ultra high vacuum, has been studied by transmission electron microscopy. Faulted loops on (100) planes have been observed in both materials. In the less pure platinum, Pt B (but purer in terms of carbon content), the defects were observed after quenching, whereas in the purest one, Pt A (but less pure in terms of carbon content), the defects were formed after a long annealing. The Burgers vector of the loops formed after the quenching was a/3 <100> and for loops formed during long annealings, was a/2 <100>, apparently. It was found that in Pt B the loop density increased and the loop size decreased as the quenching temperature was lowered.The same effect was produced by increasing the carbon content by a small amount. The loop formation was totally inhibited by adding a larger amount of carbon and also when the quenching was performed in poor vacuum (approx. 0.01 torr) or in air. The defects can be interpreted as pure vacancy loops heterogeneously nucleated at carbon atom clusters or, as plate like precipitates of carbon atoms and vacancies formed by a co-precipitation mechanism. The discussion of the experimental results …

Anaerobic fermentation of simulated in-situ oil shale retort water
The feasibility of removing soluble organics from oil shale retort water by anaerobic digestion with methane production was experimentally investigated. The following conclusions were made. The retort water studied had to be pretreated to remove toxic and add deficient constituents before it could be successfully treated with the anaerobic fermentation process. Pretreatment included pH adjustment to 7, ammonia reduction, and nutrient addition. A digested sludge from a conventional municipal sewage treatment plant was successfully acclimated to the retort water studied. A major fraction of the organics in the retort water studied was stabilized by conversion to CH/sub 4/ and CO/sub 2/ using the anaerobic fermentation process. BOD/sub 5/ and COD removal efficiences were 76 to 80 percent. The effluent from anaerobic fermentation of the retort water studied (BOD/sub 5/ : 530 to 580 mg/l) may be suitable for treatment by conventional aerobic processes. The growth of the methane formers, which stabilize the organics, is nutrient limited in the retort water studied. The pretreatment of the retort water studied removed 49 percent of the BOD/sub 5/. This was probably due to the reduction in solubility of high molecular weight fatty acids at neutral pHs. A major component removed from the retort …

Nuclear chemistry research of high-energy nuclear reactions at Carnegie-Mellon University, 1961--1977. Summary report. [Summaries of research activities at Carnegie-Mellon University]
The activities and the results of research in the study of high energy nuclear reactions carried out at Carnegie Institute of Technology from 1957 to 1967 and at Carnegie-Mellon University from 1967 to 1977 are summarized. A complete list of all publications, doctoral dissertations, and reports resulting from the research of this project is also included. A major part of the report is a review of the research activities and results. The objective of the research of this project was the study of reactions initiated by projectiles of energy above about 100 MeV. The main effort was the investigation of simple nuclear reactions with the objective to deduce reaction mechanisms. These reactions were also used as probes to determine the nuclear structure of the target. In addition, a number of studies of spallation reactions were undertaken which included the determination of excitation functions and recoil properties. Recent research activities which have involved the study of pion induced reactions as well as reactions initiated by heavy ions is also discussed.
