Conceptual TRU waste container design specifications
A contractor questionnaire was used to gather pertinent data. Site visits were made to formulate an integrated contractor consensus; a packaging meeting was held to examine, discuss, and integrate packaging philosophies; and data collected from these activities and from Task Force meetings were consolidated to provide input to the Basic Application Checklist and Criteria Checklists. Conceptual Design Criteria were developed from an analysis and evaluation of the application data against federal regulations and interim/terminal storage constraints
Acceptable TRU packaging for interim storage and/or terminal isolation: FY-1977 final report
A program was conducted for the definition and demonstration of acceptable waste packages for defense transuranic waste for interim storage and terminal isolation. During FY-1977, a Contractor Questionnaire was used to gather pertinent data and to assess contractor concerns. This information was integrated into basic application data in the form of a checklist. Conceptual Container Design Specifications were developed by analyzing and evaluating the application data against Federal Regulations and interim/terminal storage constraints
Volume reduction system for solid and liquid TRU waste from the nuclear fuel cycle: January--March 1978
The laboratory cyclone incinerator, which started operation in January, 1978, has been developed to study the effects of burning feed containing radionuclides other than /sup 238/Pu. These isotopes must be removed from the off-gas during incineration. Preliminary data from early runs show that the combustion efficiency of the incinerator can still be improved. Controlled experiments were conducted on the pressed ash-cement pellet matrix to define compressive strength, mechanical stability, density, and effect of curing environment (wet cure and dry cure). Leachability studies were initiated on pressed sludge/cement matrix in distilled water at ambient temperature. Compressive strengths of sludge/cement pressed matrix samples were investigated. Physical and chemical attributes of incinerated ash were evaluated in relationship to the ash/cement matrix. 7 figs., 6 tables

Cyclic nucleotides and glycoproteins during formation of cholesterol gallstones in prairie dogs
Web bases for the general linear groups
Let V be the representation of the quantized enveloping algebra of which is the q-analogue of the vector representation and let V ∗ be the dual representation. We construct a basis for r(VV) with favorable properties similar to those of Lusztig’s dual canonical basis. In particular our basis is invariant under the bar involution and contains a basis for the subspace of invariant tensors
