  • Target fragmentation in the interaction of relativistic heavy ions and protons with ¹⁸¹Ta

    Creator:
    Oertel, Christopher Paul
    Abstract:
    The production cross sections for a number of target fragments formed by the reactions of 42- and 21- GeV²⁰ Ne and 28 GeV p with ¹⁸¹Ta have been measured. The target fragment radioactivities were measured by off-line gamma-ray spectroscopy. Details of the measurement as well as the calculation of the...

  • Describing function theory as applied to thermal and neutronic problems

    Creator:
    Nassersharif, Bahram
    Abstract:
    Describing functions have traditionally been used to obtain the solutions of systems of ordinary differential equations. In this work the describing function concept has been extended to include nonlinear, distributed parameter partial differential equations. A three-stage solution algorithm is presented which can be applied to any nonlinear partial differential equation....

  • Fusion enhancement with neutron-rich radioactive beams

    Creator:
    Zyromski, Kristiana Elizabeth
    Abstract:
    Fusion reactions with radioactive neutron-rich projectiles have been the subject of much recent theoretical and experimental interest. Predictions of enhancement of the cross section due to the use of a neutron-rich projectile may have implications for synthesis of heavy nuclei. In this work, the fusion-fission excitation functions were measured for...

  • PERT-IV, a two-dimensional perturbation theory code for fast reactors

    Creator:
    Hardie, Ralph Wayne
    Abstract:
    A two-dimensional perturbation theory computer code, PERT-IV, has been developed that will calculate reactivity coefficients, the delayed neutron fraction, and the neutron generation time. The program uses the output flux and adjoint flux from either a diffusion theory or transport theory program. A discussion and derivation of the perturbation equation...

  • A general theory of flooding implementing the cuspoid catastrophe

    Creator:
    Lafi, Abd Y.
    Abstract:
    The flooding phenomenon can be defined as the maximum attainable flow condition beyond which the well defined countercurrent flow pattern can no longer exist. Thus the countercurrent flow limit (CCFL) or the flooding limit may be thought of as the flow condition at which the strong interaction between the two...

  • Numerical techniques for coupled neutronic/thermal hydraulic nuclear reactor calculations

    Creator:
    Betts, Curt M.
    Abstract:
    The solution of coupled neutronic/thermal hydraulic nuclear reactor calculations requires the treatment of the nonlinear feedback induced by the thermal hydraulic dependence of the neutron cross sections. As a result of these nonlinearities, current solution techniques often diverge during the iteration process. These instabilities arise due to the low level...
