Measurement of lithium in target slugs by neutron transmission
An instrument was developed to measure nondestructively the lithium content of target slugs for the SRP reactors. The slugs consist of cylindrical pieces of Li-Al alloy, approximately 0.8 inches in diameter and 12 inches in length, clad with aluminum. The instrument utilizes neutron transmission to determine the Li content in the range 3% to 7% Li.

Composition of vapors from boiling nitric acid solutions
From abstract: "The composition of vapors from aqueous nitric acid solutions boiling at 200 mm mercury total pressure is established for solutions containing between - and 67.5 w/o nitric acid. The volatility characteristics of low concentrations of chloride in the same concentration range of nitric acid have been measured in solutions boiling at 200 mm mercury. The effects of chloride concentration and pressure of boiling are evaluated. A spectrophotometric method of the determination of chloride in nitric acid solutions is described."

Investigation of KW reactor incident
The new KW reactor was placed in operation on January 4, 1955, and had been running at relatively low power levels for only 17 hours when it was shut down because of a process tube water leak which appeared to be associated with a slug rupture. After several days of unrewarding effort to remove the slugs and tube by customary methods, it developed that considerable melting of the tube and slugs had taken place. It was then evident that removal of the stuck mass and repairs to the damaged tube channel would require unusual measures that were certain to extend the reactor outage for several weeks. This report documents the work and findings of the Committee which investigated the KW reactor incident. Its content represents unanimous agreement among the three Committee members.

The Elimination of Microwave Reflections
Abstract: "The reflections of microwaves from the walls of a plasma-containing vessel are studied. The probable cause of the reflections is discussed, and several suggestions are made for eliminating the reflections from the waveguide in the vessel and particularly from the pyrex vessel wall and copper tubing surrounding the pyrex. Quarter-wave-thick carbon-filled plastics or glasses having a very low vapor pressure room most promising when placed inside the pyrex cylinder. BaTiO3 appears to be an excellent material when placed outside the vacuum."

Effect of a Decelerating Grid on Current from an Ion Source
Abstract: "A theoretical criterion is given for the conditions under which the ions from an ion source may be decelerated by a decelerating grid, following the accelerating grid which extracts ions from the emitter, without causing a reduction in the current supplied by the source."

An Immobilized Plasma in a Nonuniform Field : (IBM Machine Code Title "PLANOUNF1")
Abstract: "The self-consistent equations have been found for a plasma which lies in a mainly unidirectional magnetic field, which has a circular symmetry and which has a harmonic variation in the direction of the magnetic field. The equations have been solved in two cases, 1) where the harmonic variation of the field is finite and the plasma is weak, and 2) where the plasma is strong but the harmonic variation of the field is weak. The configurations thus found can form an important starting point for calculations of the stability of plasmas."

Interim report, production test-105-522-E, examination of pile process tube removed from 100-B and 100-H Piles
This report covers the examination of nine process tubes, five tubes from B Pile and four from H Pile. Four of the tubes from B File were removed because they were leaking and the fifth was removed because it contained a stuck ruptured slug. Tube 2681-H was removed for graphite mining, tube 2852-H was removed under PT 313-105-14M ``In-Pile Evaluation of 63-S Aluminum Process Tubes,`` and two tubes were removed from channel 0961-H under PT 105-506-E, ``Recirculation of Pile Cooling Water.`` Visual inspection was made of the inside and outside surfaces of the tubes before and after cleaning with cold 10 per cent nitric acid. Samples varying from one to four inches in length were taken from each section and transferred to the 108-B Metallurgical Laboratory for close examination to determine depth of pitting, 72-S cladding thickness, and wall thickness. These determinations were made at specific points in each section on what appeared to be the area of severest attack. It is indicated on six of the tubes where the sample was taken on the circumference of the tube.

A study to determine the economical tank size for radioactive waste disposal
Purpose of this report is to determine optimum tank size from evaluating the quantities of principal construction materials with prevailing unit costs for various tank sizes. The materials were concrete in-place, reinforcing steel in-place, wood framework, 3/8 in. C steel plate liner in-place, earthwork excavation and backfill (engineering, overhead, piping, condenser, vapor manifold costs not included). Costs of optimum tank are distributed as follows: dome 25%, walls 28%, foundation 6%, floor 2%, steel liner 20%, earthwork 19%. For a given tank capacity, there is a definite optimum tank size; as the capacity increases, the diameter increases, and the height increases but at a lesser rate. Each diameter has an optimum height, which is that height at which unit cost of storage space is minimum for a given tank diameter. Optimum unit cost is $0.136/gallons for diameters 75--130 ft; for diameters<75 ft, the optimum unit increases. Tank forms 241-S, 241-SX, and 241-A were used in this study; storage cost of the analyzed tank was $0.121 compared to $0.136/gallon for 241-SX and 241-A, and $0.152/gallon for 241-S. Assumed unit costs for concrete and steel plate tank liner were 10% less than those of 241-SX and 241-A, causing the lower unit costs. Tanks …
