MULTIFILAMENTARY SUPERCONDUCTORS WITH VERY FINE NBTI FILAMENT DIAMETERS RANGING FROM 5 TO 9 MICRONS HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED SUCCESSFULLY IN PRODUCTION QUANTITIES FOR ACCELERATOR MAGNET APPLICATIONS. THESE CONDUCTORS HAVE HIGH CURRENT DENSITY (3,000 A/MM(2) AT 5 T AND 1,250 A/MM(2)AT 8 T), LOW MAGNETIZATION, GOOD FILAMENT QUALITY ('N' (5T) = 60 AND 'N' (8T) = 35), AND LOW PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION CAU ...

THE USE OF SUPERCONDUCTING RADIO FREQUENCY (SRF) CAVITIES IN ELECTRON ACCELERATORS CAN BE DRAMATICALLY EXTENDED WITH THE UTILIZATION OF HIGH TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTORS (HTSC). WITH CRITICAL MAGNETIC FIELDS OF APPROXIMATELY 11,000 OE AT 2K OR 4 TIMES NIOBIUM, HTSCS OFFER THE POTENTIAL OF ACCERLERATING FIELDS OF 200 MEV/M WHICH WOULD SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE OF ELECTRON AND HEAVY ION L ...

9 45847-97-I Three Dimensional Cathode for the Electrolytic Removal of Heavy Metals from Aqueous Waste Streams--Eltron Research, Inc., 5660 Airport Boulevard, Boulder, CO 80301-2340; (303) 440-8008 Ms. Ella F. Spiegel, Principal Investigator Ms. Eileen E. Sammells, Business Official DOE Grant No. DE-FG03-97ER82363 Amount: $74,978 Water contaminated by heavy metals arises from decontamination ...

A PRIMARY LIMITATION OF PHOTOELECTROCHEMICAL CELLS IS PHOTOCORROSION OF ELECTRODE MATERIALS. ONE SOLUTION TO THISPROBLEM HAS BEEN TO APPLY ELABORATE CONDUCTING POLYMERIC COATINGS TO SENSITIVE ELECTRODES. AN ALTERNATIVE IS TO USE CORROSION RESISTANT ELECTRODE MATERIALS. GROUP VI METAL DICHALCOGENIDES, AND TUNGSTEN DISELENIDE (WSE2) IN PARTICULAR, HAVE SHOWN PROMISE AS INTRINSICALLY CORROSION RESIST ...

THIS PROJECT WILL EVALUATE THE EFFECT OF ACCELERATORS, FLEXIBILIZERS, AND METALLIC AND NONMETALLIC RESIDUAL ELEMENTS ON THE CRYOGENIC FATIGUE LIFE OF INSULATING MATERIALS USED IN SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNETS. THESE ADDITIVES ALTER THE CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF EPOXY-RESIN SYSTEMS AND THUSWILL AFFECT THE RESPONSE OF THE MATERIAL TO RADIATION AND LOW TEMPERATURES. AN INTEGRATED, INNOVATIVE PROPRIETARY APPROA ...
