Theoretical energy band structure calculations have been utilized to investigate several hign-Z materials for potential use as ambient temperature radiation detectors. Using the pseudopotential tech nique, the band structure for Hgl, has been determined and the effective masses of the holes and electrons have been estimated. Theoretical mobilities of the electrons and .holes as a function of temperature have been computed for Hgi, and CdTe and are compared to experimental data.
The design of the Target Fabrication Tritium Laboratory ror deuteriumtritium fuel processing for laser fusion targets has been accomplished with the intent of providing redundant safeguard systems. The design of the tritium laboratory is based on a combination of tritium handling techniques that are .currently used by experienced laboratories. A description of the laboratory in terms of its interrelated processing systems is presented to provide an understanding of the design features for safe operation.UimwM OF UIS DDMUB1 13 BULKED -2 -
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
