New Techniques In Precision Gamma Scanning: Application To Fast Breeder Reactor Fuel Pins, John R. Phillips
New Techniques In Precision Gamma Scanning: Application To Fast Breeder Reactor Fuel Pins, John R. Phillips
Chemistry and Chemical Biology ETDs
A new precision gamma scanning system is described. The system is designed for the thorough, detailed, nondestructive characterization of irradiated fast reactor fuel pins. Gamma scanning data are given for failed fuel pin , transfer mechanisms of fission products, quantitative isotopic scanning, and differential burnup profiles.
The system consists of a scanning mechanism for the precise positioning (±0.001 in.) of the irradiated fuel pin, high density tungsten alloy collimators for defining the volume segment from which the gamma-ray spectra are collected, a large high resolution an anticoincidence detector assembly for resolving complex gamma-ray spectra, and a computer controlled data acquisition …

The Conductance Of Some Polyvalent Electrolytes, Jack Lee Worthington

A new compound, 1,3,5-triphenylbenzene-4' ,4",4"'-trisulfonic acid, was synthesized by treating triphenylbenzene in 1,2-dichloroethane with chlorosulfonic acid. The reaction appears to be quantitative. Conductance measurements were then made on the sodium, potassium, and lanthanum salts of this new acid and of 1,3,5-benzenetrisulfonic acid.
The choice of these acids was based on two factors: 1) the desire to prepare a 3-3 symmetrical unassociated electrolyte which would allow the determination of a more reliable equivalent ionic conductance value for La3+ and 2) an interest in using the Murphy-Cohen equation to determine solute parameters such as association constants if association is present.
Conductance …

Computer Investigation Of The Variation Of Conductivity With Concentration, Larry Macpeers Shadwick
Masters Theses
Computer programs were developed tor the conductance equations of R. M. Fuoss and L. Onsager as well as for the conductance equations of T. J. Murphy and E. G. D. Cohen. These programs were used to calculate values from selected conductance measurements. The resulting values were compared with values produced by other computer programs using the equations of Fuoss and Onsager as well as the equations of E. Pitts. The comparisons demonstrated the equations of Murphy and Cohen to be the equal of or superior to the other equations for the majority of cases. The equations of Pitta were superior …
