From abstract: "The preparation of pure molybdenum(IV) bromide was accomplished conveniently by the reaction between molybdenum(III) bromide and liquid bromine at ca. 55°. Molybdenum(IV) bromide was found to be soluble in liquid bromine, and this property was utilized to separate and purify the molybdenum(IV) bromide. The solution of MoBr4 in bromine was a poor electrical conductor. No evidence was found for the formation of MoBr4 from MoBr3 and bromine vapor at 2-4 atm. and temperatures from 180 to 400°. However, MoBr4 was completely decomposed at 110-130°, in vacuo, with formation of MoBr3 and bromine."

A code (RAPTURE) was programmed for the Philco TRANSAC 2000 computer to perform calculations needed for the evaluation of Doppler Coefficients in fast reactors with degraded neuron spectra. This code computes resonance integrals, averages them over resonance parameter distributions, and computes fission and capture cross sections as a function of fuel temperature and of potential scattering cross section per absorber isotope.
