Addendum to Capability Needs for Irradiated and Radioactive Materials Research (Ad Hoc Committee Summary Report)

Nuclear materials and fuels studies are challenging research and engineering targets because of their inherent radioactivity as well as their heterogeneous microstructure. Advanced light sources have made significant underpinning scientific contributions to the understanding of structural and fuel cladding material microstructure and properties and the development of structure-property relationships. These facilities have the potential to help advance the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy (DOE-NE) mission priorities providing underpinning understanding of technically important challenges, including: irradiation induced embrittlement and swelling; stress corrosion cracking and corrosion in extreme environments; ageing of reactor pressure vessels steels; nuclear fuel characterization; and nuclear waste form optimization as well as playing a major role in the development of a materials performance matrix to aid in the design of new materials to meet the needs of advanced reactor concepts. However, the delivery of underpinning understanding is the mission of DOE Office of Science (DOE-SC). While filling such knowledge gaps is important, efforts in this direction should not be confused with the strategic technology focused mission goals of DOE-NE to enable the continued operation of existing U.S. nuclear reactors, to enable the deployment of advanced nuclear reactors, to develop advanced nuclear fuel cycles, and to maintain U.S. leadership in nuclear energy technology.

Addendum to Architectural Documentation and National Register of Historic Places Evaluations of Built-Environment Resources at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos County, New Mexico

The Los Alamos National Laboratory contracted Statistical Research, Inc. (SRI), to document and evaluate 110 facilities for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (National Register). This effort was conducted in compliance with Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended; the Code of Federal Regulations (36 CFR 800); the Programmatic Agreement among the U.S. Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration, Los Alamos Field Office, the New Mexico State Historic Preservation Office and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation Concerning Management of the Historic Properties at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos New Mexico; and A Plan for the Management of the Cultural Heritage at Los Alamos National Laboratory, New Mexico (LANL’s Cultural Resources Management Plan) (2017).

Addendum to SAND2023-09604 Xyce lumped-element transmission line model verification to support Empire-Cable cable SGEMP analyses

This report supplements the Verification of Empire-Cable SAND report by expanding on the use of Xyce to simulate the coupling to a transmission line cable model. While Empire-Cable solves its governing equations on a high-order, finite-element mesh with an an implicit-in-time formulation, Xyce must use a first order graph for the circuit and explicit-in-time approach to be compatible with non-linear electrical device models. Thus, given the different solution methodologies in Xyce as compared to Empire-Cable, the convergence rates are expected to be different but the overall quality of the solution should be the same. The original four canonical problems studied in the Empire-Cable verification report are replicated here running in Xyce using transmission line modeling parameters from the verification report. Overall, agreement between the codes is excellent with Xyce’s convergence rates being limited mostly to first order due to the circuit network approximation of a transmission line being a first order approximation.

Portable and Adaptable Neutron Diagnostics for Advancing Fusion Energy Science Addendum

Activation detectors developed at LLNL for measuring real-time neutron fluence from fusion sources are used in the broader fusion community. The recommended fluence operating range of this diagnostic is 5x10 2 – 1x10 6 n/cm2. The upper limit on this fluence range is set by the dead time caused by data transfer between the detector and data acquisition computer. Delaying the start of counting is a possible strategy to operate these detectors in higher fluences.

Nasa Plans Report: Addendum - Section 1

The ultimate aim of the NASA Program is to provide means of making astronomical observation in all wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum and in addition to launch satellites designed for experiments in geodesy and relativity. However, in the near future, emphasis is being placed primarily on long wavelength radio astronomy and, particularly, on astronomical photometry and spectroscopy in the portion of the spectrum to the violet of 3000 Angstrom. It is these regions which are most completely cut off from observations from the earth's surface and, in addition, it is in the far ultraviolet wavelength region that many astrophysically important lines are found.
