Brief history of the Office of Energy Research and Development: Federal Energy Office/Federal Energy Administration

A number of Important Issues in energy research and development which warrant special attention by the Energy Research and Development Office (ERDO) are identified and examined. Six matters considered to be of sufficient weight to be labeled Important Issues are: nuclear reactor siting policy: nuclear energy centers; the development of solar electric power; exploitation of western oil shale; improvements in mining technology for coal; assuring uranium fuel supplies; and automotive energy systems. The environmental issue is treated separately. Actions that ERDO can take to help resolve the issues are discussed.

Topics in aqueous plutonium chemistry (open access)

Topics in aqueous plutonium chemistry

The general plutonium equilibrium problem is solved with logarithms and a logarithmic form of the plutonium characteristic equation is suggested. Other topics include numerical methods for estimating the equilibrium acidity in plutonium solutions, a characteristic equation for the iron-plutonium reaction, a method for finding some forbidden combinations of solution variables, and properties of plutonium-238 radiation concentration cells.

Calculation of resonance self shielding in $sup 239$Pu (open access)

Calculation of resonance self shielding in $sup 239$Pu

The 2000-group TART code and the ENDL cross section library were used to calculate the fissions as a function of depth in the flat Pu plate experiment of Czirr and Bramblett (Nucl. Sci. Eng., fissions with the Pu target in to the number with the target out; secondary fissions in the target do not contribute. Results from experiment and Monte Carlo calculations are given for thicknesses from 0.06 to 3.13 g/cm/sup 2/ in nine energy groups from 2.15 eV to 10 keV. It was found that the TART 2000-group structure was it adequate since vast increases in the number of groups did not change the results. Where the total and fission cross section data are well known, the calculations and experiment were in reasonably good agreement. The only region of disagreement was in the unresolved resonance region above 300 eV. (11 figures, 1 table) (RWR)
