Accelerator technology program. Progress report, July-December 1981 (open access)

Accelerator technology program. Progress report, July-December 1981

We report on the major projects of the Los Alamos National Laboratory's Accelerator Technology Division during the last 6 months of calendar year 1981. We have continued work on the radio-frequency quadrupole linear accelerator; we are doing studies of octupole focusing. We have completed the design study on an unusual electron-linear radiographic machine that could obtain x rays of turbine engines operating under simulated flight-maneuver conditions on a centrifuge. In September we completed the 5-y PIon Generator for Medical Irradiation (PIGMI) program to develop the concept and technology for an accelerator-based facility to treat cancer in a hospital environment. The design and construction package for the site, building, and utilities for the Fusion Materials Irradiation Test (FMIT) facility has been completed, and we have begun to concentrate on tests of the rf power equipment and on the design, procurement, and installation of the 2-MeV proto-type accelerator. The Proton Storage Ring project has continued to mature. The main effort on the racetrack microtron (RTM) has been on the design and construction of various components for the demonstration RTM. On the gyrocon radio-frequency generator project, the gyrocon was rebuilt with a new electron gun and new water-cooled gun-focus coil; these new components …

Accommodation project for physically restricted personnel, Phase 1. Addendum: job-based criteria for nonskilled heavy laborers (open access)

Accommodation project for physically restricted personnel, Phase 1. Addendum: job-based criteria for nonskilled heavy laborers

A study was conducted to determine possible accommodations for physically or medically restricted persons in the unskilled heavy labor group at Sandia National Laboratories. We conclude that only a very limited number of physically restricted persons might be accommodated under special conditions.

ACTH- and Cytochalasin-Related Changes in Adrenal Cell Morphology and Cytoskeleton (open access)

ACTH- and Cytochalasin-Related Changes in Adrenal Cell Morphology and Cytoskeleton

Following 1 hr incubation with ACTH, cytochalasin D or ACTH/cytochalasin, detergent-solubilized mouse adrenal tumor cells cytoskeletal changes were examined using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Steroid production was also examined.

Adaptive Mesh Refinement for 1-Dimensional Gas Dynamics (open access)

Adaptive Mesh Refinement for 1-Dimensional Gas Dynamics

We consider the solution of the one-dimensional equation of gas-dynamics. Accurate numerical solutions are difficult to obtain on a given spatial mesh because of the existence of physical regions where components of the exact solution are either discontinuous or have large gradient changes. Numerical methods treat these phenomena in a variety of ways. In this paper, the method of adaptive mesh refinement is used. A thorough description of this method for general hyperbolic systems is given elsewhere and only properties of the method pertinent to the system are elaborated.

Advanced Fuel Cell Development Progress Report: April-June 1981 (open access)

Advanced Fuel Cell Development Progress Report: April-June 1981

Quarterly report discussing fuel cell research and development work at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL). This report describes efforts directed toward (1) improving understanding of component behavior in molten carbonate fuel cells and (2) developing alternative concepts for components. The principal focus has been on the development of sintered y-LiAIO2 electrolyte supports, stable NiO cathodes, and hydrogen diffusion barriers. Cell tests were performed to assess diffusion barriers and to study cathode voltage relaxation following current interruption.

Los Alamos Controlled Air Incinerator for radioactive waste. Volume I. Rationale, process, equipment, performance, and recommendations (open access)

Los Alamos Controlled Air Incinerator for radioactive waste. Volume I. Rationale, process, equipment, performance, and recommendations

This two-volume report is a detailed design and operating documentation of the Los Alamos National Laboratory Controlled Air Incinerator (CAI) and is an aid to technology transfer to other Department of Energy contractor sites and the commercial sector. Volume I describes the CAI process, equipment, and performance, and it recommends modifications based on Los Alamos experience. It provides the necessary information for conceptual design and feasibility studies. Volume II provides descriptive engineering information such as drawing, specifications, calculations, and costs. It aids duplication of the process at other facilities.
