Wire chamber degradation at the Argonne ZGS (open access)

Wire chamber degradation at the Argonne ZGS

Experience with multiwire proportional chambers at high rates at the Argonne Zero Gradient Synchrotron is described. A buildup of silicon on the sense wires was observed where the beam passed through the chamber. Analysis of the chamber gas indicated that the density of silicon was probably less than 10 ppM.

With Love

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
WITH LOVE, 1986, a fantasy for live cello and decorated cello cases, in memory of Myrtle Hollins Adelberg, by Vivian Adelberg Rudow, won FIRST PRIZE in the 14th International Electroacoustic Music Competition, Bourges,1986, program division. It won with straight ten's. Rudow was the first woman to win a first prize in the Program division of the Bourges competition and the first American woman to win any first prize. This work was composed for live cello and stereo tape. For the first performance, January 1986, Paula Skolnick-Virizlay, cellist at the Baltimore Museum of Art, two separate tracks were transmitted to two separate speakers, one inside decorated cello case "Electronic Mom", the other inside decorated cello case"Electronic Woman". Amalie Rothschild, Baltimore artist, created the cello cases. The sounds coming from the different speakers represented the feelings of that specific woman. All the sounds from "Unmarried, spirited, flamboyant, "ELECTRONIC WOMAN" were electronically reproduced by the composer. The sounds from "ELECTRONIC MOM" were spoken thoughts from 23 people in interviews about their moms and moms sharing their thoughts about being mothers, original music composed for the work, plus fragments of earlier works by Ms. Rudow. The cellist sat between the two ladies and the …

Workshop on neutron capture therapy (open access)

Workshop on neutron capture therapy

Potentially optimal conditions for Neutron Capture Therapy (NCT) may soon be in hand due to the anticipated development of band-pass filtered beams relatively free of fast neutron contaminations, and of broadly applicable biomolecules for boron transport such as porphyrins and monoclonal antibodies. Consequently, a number of groups in the US are now devoting their efforts to exploring NCT for clinical application. The purpose of this Workshop was to bring these groups together to exchange views on significant problems of mutual interest, and to assure a unified and effective approach to the solutions. Several areas of preclinical investigation were deemed to be necessary before it would be possible to initiate clinical studies. As neither the monomer nor the dimer of sulfhydryl boron hydride is unequivocally preferable at this time, studies on both compounds should be continued until one is proven superior.

X-ray beam size measurements on the Advanced Test Accelerator (open access)

X-ray beam size measurements on the Advanced Test Accelerator

The electron beam size has been determined on the Advanced Test Accelerator (ATA) by intercepting the beam with a target and measuring the resulting x-ray intensity as a function of time as the target is moved through the beam. Several types of targets have been used. One is a tantalum rod which extends completely across the drift chamber. Another is a tungsten powder filled carbon crucible. Both of these probes are moved from shot to shot so that the x-ray signal intensity varies with probe position. A third is a larger tantalum disk which is inserted on beam axis to allow determining beam size on a one shot basis. The x-ray signals are detected with an MCP photomultiplier tube located at 90/sup 0/ to the beamline. It is sufficiently shielded to reject background x-rays and neutrons. The signals were digitized, recorded and later unfolded to produce plots of x-ray intensity versus probe position for several times during the pulse. The presumption that the x-ray intensity is proportional to beam current density is checked computationally. Details of the probe construction and PMT shielding, as well as sample measurements are given.

Zeeman Laser Scattering (ZLS): a new light scattering technique (open access)

Zeeman Laser Scattering (ZLS): a new light scattering technique

A new light scattering technique, called Zeeman Laser Scattering (ZLS), which uses a two-frequency Zeeman effect laser, is described. The Zeeman effect laser produces two coherent, colinear laser beams having orthogonal polarizations. The laser output is passed unfocused through a scattering cell containing the sample of interest, and the light scattered at each scattering angle is detected with a photomultiplier tube mounted on an arm that rotates under computer control about the scattering cell. The phase and amplitude of the beats produced by the interference of the two colinear laser beams are measured. Three different scattering mechanisms to which ZLS is sensitive are described, and the quantitative theory of ZLS is derived from the scattering amplitude matrix formalism. Samples of ZLS data are given. (LEW)

Zone approaches to international safeguards of a nuclear fuel cycle (open access)

Zone approaches to international safeguards of a nuclear fuel cycle

At present the IAEA designs its safeguards approach with regard to each type of nuclear facility so that the safeguards activities and effort are essentially the same for a given type and size of nuclear facility wherever it may be located. Conclusions regarding a state are derived by combining the results of safeguards verifications for the individual facilities within it. We have examined safeguards approaches for a state nuclear fuel cycle that take into account the existence of all of the nuclear facilities in the state. We have focussed on the fresh-fuel zone of an advanced nuclear fuel cycle, the several facilities of which use or process low-enriched uranium. At one extreme, flows and inventories would be verified at each material balance area. At the other extreme, the flows into and out of the zone and the inventory of the whole zone would be verified. The intention is to develop an approach which will make it possible to compare the technical effectiveness and the inspection effort for the facility-oriented approach, for the zone approach and for some reasonable intermediate safeguards approaches. Technical effectiveness, in these cases, means an estimate of the assurance that all nuclear material has been accounted for.

ZT-P: an advanced air core reversed field pinch prototype (open access)

ZT-P: an advanced air core reversed field pinch prototype

The ZT-P experiment, with a major radius of 0.45 m and a minor radius of 0.07 m, was designed to prototype the next generation of reversed field pinch (RFP) machines at Los Alamos. ZT-P utilizes an air-core poloidal field system, with precisely wound and positioned rigid copper coils, to drive the plasma current and provide plasma equilibrium with intrinsically low magnetic field errors. ZT-P's compact configuration is adaptable to test various first wall and limiter designs at reactor-relevant current densities in the range of 5 to 20 MA/m/sup 2/. In addition, the load assembly design allows for the installation of toroidal field divertors. Design of ZT-P began in October 1983, and assembly was completed in October 1984. This report describes the magnetic, electrical, mechanical, vacuum, diagnostic, data acquisition, and control aspects of the machine design. In addition, preliminary data from initial ZT-P operation are presented. Because of ZT-P's prototypical function, many of its design aspects and experimental results are directly applicable to the design of a next generation RFP. 17 refs., 47 figs.

Oral History Interview with Cecil King, {1986-07-28,1986-08-04,1986-08-11,1989-10-23}

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Cecil King. King joined the Navy shortly after graduating from high school in 1934. After training in San Diego, King was assigned to the USS Portland (CA-33). He met President Roosevelt aboard the Portland during a fishing trip. He then volunteered for yeoman duty at the Panama Canal Zone in 1935. While there, he met Admiral John S. McCain. He re-enlisted in 1938 and was assigned to the USS Davis (DD-395). He stayed aboard for a short time patrolling the Outer Banks before transferring to the USS Warrington (DD-383). He served aboard her with Chester Nimitz, Jr. King volunteered for China duty and was assigned to the USS Augusta (CA-31). While on Asiatic Station, King mentions going to Shanghai on liberty. He served aboard the USS Houston (CA-30) prior to the outbreak of WWII. He was sick with dengue fever in Manila when the Japanese attacked the naval base at Cavite. King managed to escape from Corregidor aboard the USS Peary (DD-226) and debarked in Darwin, Australia. He eventually made it to Java before pulling out on the USS Sturgeon (SS-187) for Perth. King finally made it to …
