The Spectrophotometric Determination of Boron in Plutonium Using an Oxalate Separation (open access)

The Spectrophotometric Determination of Boron in Plutonium Using an Oxalate Separation

An improved method for the determination of boron in plutonium is reported. Precipitation of plutonium (III) acid oxalate prior to color development with curcumin results in increased precision, greater speed, and lower costs. Results are presented of a statistical study involving all variables.

Power Distributions for Type 3 Replacement Cores for SM-1, SM-1A and PM-2A (open access)

Power Distributions for Type 3 Replacement Cores for SM-1, SM-1A and PM-2A

Abstract: The most adverse power distribution and power peaking factors have been developed for Type 3 replacement cores for SM-1, SM-1A, and PM-2A. Also included is the 37 element Type 3 core for SM-1, which is known as SM-1 Core III and is a prototype of a Type 3 core for PM-2A. The power distributions were compared with measured distributions obtained on type 3 fuel elements in SM-1, SM-1A and PM-2A core configurations. Using the measured data as a standard, correction factors were obtained and applied to the analytical predictions of the most adverse power distribution.
