Production of muons for fusion catalysis in a magnetic mirror configuration. Revision 1 (open access)

Production of muons for fusion catalysis in a magnetic mirror configuration. Revision 1

For muon-catalyzed fusion to be of practical interest, a very efficient means of producing muons must be found. We describe a scheme for producing muons that may be more energy efficient than any heretofore proposed. There are, in particular, some potential advantages of creating muons from collisions of high energy tritons confined in a magnetic mirror configuration. If one could catalyze 200 fusions per muon and employ a uranium blanket that would multiply the neutron energy by a factor of 10, one might produce electricity with an overall plant efficiency (ratio of electric energy produced to nuclear energy released) approaching 30%. One possible near term application of a muon-producing magnetic-mirror scheme would be to build a high-flux neutron source for radiation damage studies. The careful arrangement of triton orbits will result in many of the ..pi../sup -/'s being produced near the axis of the magnetic mirror. The pions quickly decay into muons, which are transported into a small (few-cm-diameter) reactor chamber producing approximately 1-MW/m/sup 2/ neutron flux on the chamber walls, using a laboratory accelerator and magnetic mirror. The costs of construction and operation of the triton injection accelerator probably introduces most of the uncertainty in the viability of this …

Measured resolutions of the Arc and Linac BPM systems (open access)

Measured resolutions of the Arc and Linac BPM systems

The 6'' long final focus beam position monitors (short FF BPM's are longer, thus deliver more signal after a 15 nanosecond filter, than either the Linac or Arc monitors. The purpose of this note is to compare the resolution of the Arc vs Linac electronics when applied to a short FF 2'' diameter BPM. A method of calibrating the Arc modules is also tested and briefly discussed. The range of each DAC setting to minimize digitization error is also calculated.

Hydrodynamic effects in evaporating droplets (open access)

Hydrodynamic effects in evaporating droplets

The vaporization of a spherically symmetric liquid droplet homogeneously heated by a high-intensity laser pulse is investigated on the basis of a hydrodynamic description of the system composed of the vapor and ambient gas. In the limit of convective vaporization, the boundary conditions at the fluid-gas interface are formulated by using the notion of a Knudsen layer across which translational equilibrium is established. Numerical solutions to the hydrodynamic equations exhibit the existence of two shock waves propagating in opposite directions with respect to the contact discontinuity that separates the ambient gas and vapor. 17 refs., 6 figs.
