The traveler organized and chaired the meeting of the NEANDC/NEACRP Nuclear Data Evaluation Cooperation Subgroup-I: Intercomparison of USA, European, and Japanese Evaluations for {sup 52}Cr, {sup 56}Fe, and {sup 58}Ni, held on December 3, 1990, at the NEA Data Bank in Saclay, France. The traveler held discussions with Subgroup-II members to keep track of the activities of this group in which the traveler is a member. Highlights and/or recommendations of these meetings, as well as observations of the EAF, EFF, and JEF meetings, are included in this report.

A designed experiment was performed on the staking operation of a miniature precision bearing. Three variables were controlled during the experiment: staking force, tool diameter, and bearing-to-wheel fit. The study showed that the current staking tool diameter is highly sensitive to staking force and to bearing-to-wheel fit, whereas a smaller diameter tool is not. The study also shows that, with the current process, bearing movement under a 100-Newton (N) force can be estimated at 0.009 in. to 0.0029 in. The current specification is 0.002 in. and should be revised to 0.0035 in. 4 figs.

This report presents current data on production, consumption, stocks, imports, exports, and prices of the principal energy commodities in the United States.

The Evaluation Cooperation Subgroup, Actinide Data in the Thermal Energy Range,'' met primarily to discuss problems related to the temperature coefficient of U-235 fueled thermal reactors and nuclear data on eta at thermal neutron energies, the number of neutrons emitted per neutron absorbed. The preliminary results of the eta measurements done by M. Moxon of Harwell at Oak Ridge were presented and preliminary results by H. Weigman of Geel with a new method were presented. All three measurements from Geel show a pronounced down-slope of eta with decreasing neutron energy and both measurements by Moxon show only a very slight down slope. Acceptance of the Geel results would solve about one-third of the problem in the calculated reactor temperature coefficient. The Evaluation Cooperation Subgroup, 239-Pu Fission Cross Sections between 1 and 100 keV,'' met to discuss the 4% lower than the previously evaluated fission cross sections between 20 eV and 100 keV as evaluated from the fission data of the Weston and Todd and transmission data of J. A. Harvey (all of ORNL). These lower fission cross sections are discrepant with integral measurements, however, it is conceivable that there could be compensating effects, perhaps in the U-238 cross sections. A …

A weekly publication, the Texas Register serves as the journal of state agency rulemaking for Texas. Information published in the Texas Register includes proposed, adopted, withdrawn and emergency rule actions, notices of state agency review of agency rules, governor's appointments, attorney general opinions, and miscellaneous documents such as requests for proposals. After adoption, these rulemaking actions are codified into the Texas Administrative Code.
