[The 100 Block of West Hubbard]

This picture is an illustration of the south side of the 100 block of West Hubbard Street, looking southeast. The north side (and back view) of Cole's Florist and Hill's Style Shop can be seen at the center of the picture. Lynch Plaza, the darker brick building, is in the left middle background. Oak Avenue (U.S. Highway 281) extends north-south between Cole's House of Flowers and Lynch Plaza. Cole's occupies the site of the former Davidson Hardware, which burned along with the Damron Hotel in 1975. Lynch Plaza, the site of the mineral-water discovery well, was built on the site where the former Oxford Hotel burned in 1983. The parking lot seen in the right foreground of the picture was the site of the Damron Hotel.

AC magnetic measurements of the ALS Booster Synchrotron Dipole Magnet engineering model (open access)

AC magnetic measurements of the ALS Booster Synchrotron Dipole Magnet engineering model

We made a minimal set of AC magnetic measurements of the engineering model of the ALS Booster Dipole Magnet as part of the process of qualifying its design for production. Magnetic induction integrals over paths approximating electron-beam trajectories were measured with long curved coils connected to an electronic integrator. Magnetic induction was measured with point coils and an integrator and independently with a Hall-effect Gaussmeter. These quantities, and magnet current, were displayed on a commercial digital storage oscilloscope as parametric functions of time. The displayed waveforms were stored, processed and redisplayed as representations of selected magnet parameters. A waveform representing the magnet's effective-length was created by dividing the integral waveform by the magnetic induction waveform. Waveforms of the transfer functions were produced by dividing both the integral waveform and the magnetic induction waveform by the current waveform. Pairs of matched coils, connected in series opposition, provided differential measurements of field uniformity. Quadrupole and sextupole coefficients were derived from the uniformity data. These magnet parameters were measured at 2 and 10 Hz frequencies. Together with measurements of the magnetic field at selected dc levels, the ac measurements demonstrated that the magnet design met specifications and qualified it for production. 7 refs., …

Acceleration errors in MBE-4 and in a driver (open access)

Acceleration errors in MBE-4 and in a driver

Two different acceleration schedules have been implemented in MBE-4 and the resulting longitudinal emittance measured in each case. The question arises, whether this measured longitudinal emittance is small enough so that when scaled up to a driver, using induction pulsers of the same quality, the stringent constraint on {Delta}p/p at the final focus can be met.

Accident analysis of railway transportation of low-level radioactive and hazardous chemical wastes: Application of the /open quotes/Maximum Credible Accident/close quotes/ concept (open access)

Accident analysis of railway transportation of low-level radioactive and hazardous chemical wastes: Application of the /open quotes/Maximum Credible Accident/close quotes/ concept

The maximum credible accident (MCA) approach to accident analysis places an upper bound on the potential adverse effects of a proposed action by using conservative but simplifying assumptions. It is often used when data are lacking to support a more realistic scenario or when MCA calculations result in acceptable consequences. The MCA approach can also be combined with realistic scenarios to assess potential adverse effects. This report presents a guide for the preparation of transportation accident analyses based on the use of the MCA concept. Rail transportation of contaminated wastes is used as an example. The example is the analysis of the environmental impact of the potential derailment of a train transporting a large shipment of wastes. The shipment is assumed to be contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls and low-level radioactivities of uranium and technetium. The train is assumed to plunge into a river used as a source of drinking water. The conclusions from the example accident analysis are based on the calculation of the number of foreseeable premature cancer deaths the might result as a consequence of this accident. These calculations are presented, and the reference material forming the basis for all assumptions and calculations is also provided.

Added mass for plates partially submerged in water (open access)

Added mass for plates partially submerged in water

Added mass values for plates partially submerged in water are obtained from a series of experiments. Both solid and perforated plates are tested. Each plate is circular and is constrained to move as a piston in a horizontal cylindrical container. Water flow past the perimeter of a plate is controlled by the narrow gap between the container and the edges of the plate. The perforated plate has an equilateral triangular pitch pattern of circular holes. The plate vibrates as a rigid mass on a flexible suspension system. The plate excitation is produced with an impact hammer, although shaker excitation is used to confirm natural frequencies. The natural frequency of the plate is measured for seven water levels in the container ranging from empty to full. For each water level, added mass is computed using the ratio of the natural frequency in air to the natural frequency in water. The added mass for fully submerged plates is compared to published experimental and theoretical results.

ANSYS program and re-validation of the thermal analysis of the Cornell silicon crystal (open access)

ANSYS program and re-validation of the thermal analysis of the Cornell silicon crystal

The main thrust of the present study has been to (a) explore the thermal analysis potentials of the ANSYS program in solving thermal hydraulic problems in the APS beamline design, (b) compare the ANSYS results with those obtained by THTB for a specific test crystal, and (c) obtain some cost benchmarks for the ANSYS program. On the basis of a limited number of test runs for the silicon crystal problem, conclusions can be drawn that (a) except for conduction problems with simple boundary conditions the utility of ANSYS for solving a variety of three-dimensional thermal hydraulic problems is at best limited, (b) in comparison with THTB program, ANSYS requires a more detailed modeling (with increasing computation time) for comparably accurate results, and (c) no firm statement regarding the cost factor can be made at this time although the ANSYS program appears to be more expensive than any other code they have used so far.

Are There Really Any Experimental Limits on a Light Higgs Boson? (open access)

Are There Really Any Experimental Limits on a Light Higgs Boson?

The experimental evidence regarding a light Higgs boson is reviewed. It is shown that a light Higgs boson with almost any mass between 14 MeV/c/sup 2/ and 1 GeV/c/sup 2/ is still allowed by existing data. The only limit in this range comes from B decay data which, for sufficiently large values of the top quark mass, excludes a Higgs boson with a mass between 2m/sub ..mu../ and /approximately/700 MeV/c/sup 2/. Discussions of light Higgs boson emission in the decays of K, ..pi.., ..mu.., /tau/, /eta/', and GAMMA are also given. 29 refs., 2 figs.

Aspects of e/sup +/e/sup/minus// physics at 1 TeV (open access)

Aspects of e/sup +/e/sup/minus// physics at 1 TeV

A summary of several recent studies of electroweak e/sup +/e/sup /minus// physics is provided. The significance of upcoming SLC/LEP measurements of Z and W properties is discussed, with special emphasis placed on radiative corrections and polarization. New electroweak physics at a proposed TeV e/sup +/e/sup /minus// collider is presented as a natural outgrowth of the SLC/LEP programs. Precise tests of the trilinear gauge boson vertex through W pair production, searching for the disturbance of perturbative unitarity by radiative corrections, and of the gauge structure of a Z', through polarized e/sup /minus// beams, are presented. 19 refs.

Assessment of Westinghouse Hanford Company Methods for Estimating Radionuclide Release From Ground Disposal of Waste Water at the N Reactor Sites (open access)

Assessment of Westinghouse Hanford Company Methods for Estimating Radionuclide Release From Ground Disposal of Waste Water at the N Reactor Sites

This report summarizes the results of an independent assessment by Golder Associates, Inc. of the methods used by Westinghouse Hanford Company (Westinghouse Hanford) and its predecessors to estimate the annual offsite release of radionuclides from ground disposal of cooling and other process waters from the N Reactor at the Hanford Site. This assessment was performed by evaluating the present and past disposal practices and radionuclide migration data within the context of the hydrology, geology, and physical layout of the N Reactor disposal site. The conclusions and recommendations are based upon the available data and simple analytical calculations. Recommendations are provided for conducting more refined analyses and for continued field data collection in support of estimating annual offsite releases. Recommendations are also provided for simple operational and structural measures that should reduce the quantities of radionuclides leaving the site. 5 refs., 9 figs., 1 tab.

B meson physics with polarized electron beams at the SLC (open access)

B meson physics with polarized electron beams at the SLC

The expected large cross-section for e/sup +/e/sup -/ ..-->.. Z/sup 0/ and subsequent decay to b/bar b/ quarks makes the Z/sup 0/ an attractive place to pursue B meson physics. In addition, the big Electroweak asymmetries, thought to exist in Z/sup 0/ decays to b/bar b/ quarks with polarized electron beams, provide an outstanding handle for observation of such effects as B/sup 0/-/bar B//sup 0/ mixing. In this paper, the feasibility of such measurements is investigated and, with relatively small samples of Z/sup 0/'s (a few hundred thousand), both B/sub d/ and B/sub s/ meson mixing are shown to be measurable. The subject of CP violation in neutral B mesons is discussed last, but presently such measurements seem to be out of reach. 7 refs., 6 figs., 3 tabs.
