(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)Analytic solutions of the multigroup space-time reactor kinetics equations are developed for a bare slab and spherical reactor, and a reflected slab and spherical reactor for the zero flux, the zero current, and the ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)The time-dependent convective-diffusion equation with radioactive decay is solved analytically in axisymmetric cylindrical geometry for laminar and slug velocity profiles under isothermal conditions. Concentration dependent ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)Various orientations of undoped single crystal silicon were examined from the standpoint of transmitted half-angle to determine the best orientation for masked ion beam lithography (MIBL). The effect of boron, present at ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)An approximate solution method has been developed to solve the one-dimensional, steady-state neutron transport problems in plane and spherical geometries. The spherical harmonics expansion and the multigroup approximation ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)A computer simulation of the interactions of 50 MeV d⁺ on Be and 42 MeV p⁺ on Be neutron spectra with ICRU muscle tissue and Shonka A-150 tissue equivalent plastic was performed to allow computation of the charged particle ...
-
(2020-03-23)The purpose of this research was to compare the viability of producing uranium-233 (²³³U) using two oft-overlooked methods of fertile isotope transmutation: a heavy water moderated reactor and an accelerator-driven system. ...

The continuum regime charging of submicrometer particles by bipolar air ions : theory and experiment (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)A study was undertaken to characterize experimentally the continuum regime charging of aerosols by bipolar gaseous ions and to evaluate theoretical models for the charging process. Experiments were conducted on monodisperse ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)A general formulation of the kinetics equations of a system of coupled reactors is developed within the framework of neutron transport theory. The time behavior of the neutron population in a system of M interacting reactors ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)Two types of radiation sources were developed and calibrated, a ('16)N source with an intensity of approximately 0.0035 Gray/hr (350 mrad/hr) and a set of five capture gamma sources with intensities of approximately 0.03-0.07 ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)Cobalt-60 irradiation of the molten salts, CuI, AgBr, and AgCl, at a dose rate of 1.4 X 10³ R/sec produced changes in the electrical conductivity of .1 to .3%. The change in conductivity could not be accounted for by ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)Computer studies were made of high energy proton and deuteron beams which indicated that protons to 80 MeV and deuterons to 70 MeV could be achieved if the radio frequency range were extended to 18.75 MHz and additional ...

-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)A computer code was developed for die transport of photon and electrons in an improved mathematical reference man. The code generated absorbed fractions of energy for monoenergetic electrons for selected source organs. The ...
-
(2013-06-03)The treaty verification field is of renewed importance as continued nuclear weapons disarmament is prioritized nationally in partnership with other nuclear weapons states. This interest has led to research and development ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)Neutron-irradiated Con-Rad type N and type 7 lithium fluoride are systematically studied according to the isothermal annealing, the glow curve analysis, and to the different energies ranging from thermal to 14 Mev. Special ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)Chemical dosimeters are used widely for accurate measurement of large radiation doses due to external beam irradiation from radioisotope sources and from particle accelerators. Their use for measurement of absorbed doses ...
