    Cementation of the secondary aqueous wastes from TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant is challenging due to the significant strontium content and radioactivity, leading to a potential risk of hydrogen gas generation via radiolysis of water content. The present study investigates the reduction of water content in calcium aluminate cement (CAC) with/out phosphate modification by a heat-treatment during the solidification. The reduction of water in the CAC was found restricted by the rapid formation of crystalline hydration phases, whereas the phosphate-modified system allowed the gradual reduction of water, achieving the reduction of 60% water content at 95 °C. Curing at 60–95 °C also eliminated the significant cracks found at 35 °C in the phosphate system. The possible difference in the amorphous products, NaCaPO4∙nH2O type at 35 °C and Ca(HPO4)∙xH2O type at 60–95 °C, may have contributed to the improvement in the microstructure together with the change in the pore size distribution

    Design and development of the ATLAS central solenoid magnet

    Get PDF
    The ATLAS central solenoid magnet is being constructed to provide a magnetic field of 2 T in the central tracking part of the ATLAS detector. As a key technology for a solenoid coil as thin as possible, a high-strength aluminum stabilized superconductor has been developed, achieving a yield strength of >100 MPa at 4.2 K. This paper describes the status of the design and development of the solenoid magnet. (14 refs)

    In the title compound, C14H14O, the two benzene rings are almost orthogonal [dihedral angle = 87.78 (8) °]. The hy­droxy group lies approximately in the plane of its attached benzene ring [O—C—C—C torsion angle = −17.47 (17)°], and the hydroxyl and methyl groups lie to the same side of the mol­ecule and are gauche to each other. In the crystal, a hexa­meric aggregate mediated by a ring of six O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds occurs, generating an R 6 6(12) loop
