Foam Suppression of Radioactive Iodine and Particulates (open access)

Foam Suppression of Radioactive Iodine and Particulates

" A reliable, efficient and economical method is needed to remove radioactive halogens such as iodine and bromine and particulates from air in many atomic energy installations. One method we have developed which is particularly suited to reactor containment vessels or other large confined areas is foam containment. In this method an ether lauryl sulfate foam containing an iodine reactant is generated, rapidly filling the entire containment volume. This provides a tremendous surface area to which the encapsulated gases and particles can diffuse and be removed."

Preburst Resistance and Temperature of Exploding Wires (open access)

Preburst Resistance and Temperature of Exploding Wires

It has been shown that the time of burst of exploding wires can be predicted from known thermodynamic and electrical properties of the wire materials under some conditions. The mathematical relationships are a set of integrals (transformation time integrals) similar in form to the empirical "action integrals" sometimes used in exploding wire work. This paper discusses the use of the transformation time integrals to calculate the resistance and temperature of a wire as a function of time up to the time of burst and to investigate the effects of environment of the wire on the temperature, resistance, and time of burst.

Nuclear Excavation Technology (open access)

Nuclear Excavation Technology

Nuclear excavation is the name given to the concept of using large scale nuclear explosion craters for useful projects, such as harbors, canals, and roadway cuts. It is one of the principal applications of the Plowshare Program for industrial, or peaceful, uses of nuclear explosives. Plowshare is sponsored by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission and is under the technical direction of the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory at Livermore, California. The purpose of this paper is to describe cratering concepts and the present state of nuclear excavation technology. The general nature of the safety hazards associated with nuclear excavation are also discussed.

A Dynamic Method For Mercury Vapor Detector Calibration (open access)

A Dynamic Method For Mercury Vapor Detector Calibration

The calibration of mercury vapor detectors has always posed a problem because of the difficulty of generating known concentrations of mercury vapor in air. The purpose of this study was to design an apparatus that would generate and chemically measure known concentrations of mercury vapor in air for calibration work.

LRL Fortran-Fortran (open access)

LRL Fortran-Fortran

Late in 1962, a group in the Computation Division at Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, Livermore, began a study of compiler languages and techniques, the culmination of which was a machine independent FORTRAN written in FORTRAN. The impetus behind this study was a local need to move rapidly and efficiently from one machine to another. A secondary incentive was the need to be able to implement language extensions without the customarily long gestation period. Because of a large inventory of FORTRAN codes at this installation, FORTRAN source language was chosen as standard. Some effort was also expended on a syntax directed compiler written in FORTRAN for FORTRAN. With the knowledge of FORTRAN techniques gained from writing the syntax compiler and translators for other machines, the writing of FORTRAN in FORTRAN was begun.
