The design basis is composed of requirements and conditions for the design of the reactor plant (composed of the reactor and heat dissipation system). Its intent is to insure that the final product meets the economic, safety, and technical objectives of the project. The design basis is dependent on the ground rules, objectives, technical criteria, and practical design considerations. This document is being issued with the understanding that these items are not yet firmly established in all respects, and therefore, the numbers put down here are subject to change. Consideration of the spectrum of probable changes that might be made leads to the conclusion that the numbers here are close to the final ones and are satisfactory as a basis for the initial stages of design. Some numbers are omitted because of insufficient data at this time.

Discussed is reactivity measurements on fast metal systems and moderated systems (graphite, BeO) used in rocket propulsion, pulsed neutron techniques used in graphite moderated systems, and BeO-U{sup 235} systems.

Relationships between surface appearance and actual depth of damage of sub-fabric burns have been established for only a few burns. Since surface appearance has been the most widely used criterion for evaluating the ability of fabrics to protect against radiant energy, it is of some importance to know whether or not bare skin and sub-fabric burns of similar appearance are of comparable severity. In this experiment it was found that both types of burn when produced by one second exposures and when graded 3/sup +/ moderate because of their surface appearance are, indeed, equally severe. Observations on healing of the two types of burn suggest no differences in the manner or rate of tissue restoration. (auth)

Memorandum presenting results of tests for possible flutter of a dynamically and elastically scaled model of a proposed all-movable horizontal tail surface for the North American X-15 airplane. Tests at Mach number 6.86 were made on the scaled model and on several other configurations with lower stiffnesses.

Memorandum presenting lift and drag characteristics that have been determined in flight in the landing-approach configuration on 41 jet-propelled fighter-type airplane arrangements, including various wing boundary-layer-control installations. Minimum comfortable approach speeds for carrier-type landings were evaluated for these airplanes by four test pilots. Results regarding the presentation of data, methods for the prediction of minimum comfortable approach speed, reasons for limiting approach speed, comparison of flight and predicted approach speeds, and comparison of test pilots' and service pilots' approach speed are provided.

A brief review of fast electronics is given, leading up to the present state of the art. Cherenkov counters in high-energy physics are discussed, including an example of a velocity-selecting Cherenkov counter. An electronic device to aid in aligning external beams from high-energy accelerators is described. A scintillation-counter matrix to identify bubble chamber tracks is discussed. Some remarks on the future development of electronics in high-energy physics experiments are included.

During the past sixty years, four elements beyond californium on the atomic number scale have been synthesized by the transmutation of lighter elements. The first preparation of einsteinium and fermium occurred in a thermonuclear explosion. Mendelevium and element 102, however, were prepared by a more conventional method, that of charged particle bombardment of elements of high atomic number.

The method of detecting unpaired electrons in liquid and solid systems by electron spin resonance is discussed. The significance of the hyperfine structure in electron spin resonance is discussed and the possible use of these structural features of the electron spin resonance spectrum to elucidate the nature of the photoproduced unpaired electrons in photosynthesizing systems is introduced.

Report issued by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory displaying a single chart showing measurements of the gamma-ray, fast-neutron, and thermal-neutron dose rates.

This memorandum represents a preliminary look at using a nuclear device as a source of polarized rays to perform a polarization experiment on the photoelectric effect. No intensities have been computed but just a look at the effect to be expected. It is anticipated that this would be a more difficult experiment to perform than the earlier proposed neutron polarization experiment. The theory of the experiment and the proposed experiment are described.

Report presenting lift and drag characteristics in the landing-approach configuration on 41 jet-propelled fighter-type airplane arrangements using flight testing. Minimum comfortable approach speeds were evaluated by four test pilots. Suggestions for achieving optimal speeds for approach under various conditions are also provided.

Memorandum presenting an investigation to determine the performance of the XJ79-GE-1 turbojet engine and its components, while operating as integral parts of the engine, conducted in an altitude test chamber. Data were obtained over a range of Reynolds number indices and for various settings of the variable compressor stators and variable-area exhaust nozzle from fully open to fully closed positions. Results regarding the component performance and engine performance are provided.

Report presenting testing of four multiweb wing models were tested at Mach number 2 in a free jet to investigate structural effects of aerodynamic heating and loading. All of the models were the same except for the number of chordwise internal stiffening ribs; each had zero, one, two, or three. Results regarding laboratory vibration tests, jet tests, model behavior, temperatures, stresses, and discussion of failure are provided.
