PREFACE October 13,1991 marked the twenty-fifth anniversary of operation of the University of Missouri Research Reactor Center (MURR), the highest power and most versatile research reactor located on a university campus m the United States. MURR was born in 1956 aut of the farsighted vision of a Reactor Study Committee commissioned by University President Elmer Ellis and chaired by - then MU Engineering Dean, Huber O. Croft. The members of this committee-Dean Croft, Dean Elmer Kiehl, Dean Vernon Wilson, and Physics Professor Newell Gingrich-recommended constructing a research reactor with a power in excess of one megawatt. In 1960 the committee selected Ardath Emmons as the first director. Dr. Emmons also led the design team that formalized the concept of building a light water moderated research reactor ofinnovative design including a central flux trap irradiation facility. Other irradiation positions for producing isotopes and other uses were provided for in the graphite rellector surroundingthe center beryllium neutron reflector elem ent. The reactor was planned initially to be five megawatts and to accommodate a later power upgrade to 10 megawatts. Six beamtubes were provided for neutron scattering and other types of research utilizing neutron beams. The design plan also called for an extensive laboratory building of 51,000 square feet associated with the reactor to contain radiological research laboratories and offices. Several of the laboratories were equipped with pneumatic tube remote irradiation facilities. Construction ofthe research reactor and associated laboratory building began ! in 1963 with funding from both the Federal Government and the State of Missouri. It was completed and commenced operation in 1966. Powerlevels and operating schedules were gradually increased, and in 1969 the reactor began operating a 100 hour / week schedule at 5 megawatts. In 1974 the reactor power was increased to 10 megawatts, and in 1977 operation of the reactor for 155 hours per week was initiated.

t L - Over the intervening twenty-five plus years of operation 'of MURR, the-number, quality, and breadth ofreactor-based research programs have grown -- enormously. Much ofthis expansion occurred under the 14 years ofleadership . by Dr. Robert Brugger, MURR Director from' 197411988. The number and : scope of research programs which utilize the MURR Center or isotopes produced by the Reactor are unequaled by any other facility. This an nual report for fiscal year (FY) 1992 presents research and operational ; accomplishments of the reactor and its associated users and collaborators. As - discussed later in this report, the year 1992 brought forth a number of new achievements as well a new organizational structure for the research groups. A MURR newsletter entitled From Out ofthe Blue was commissioned in May, - edited by Ms. Ronita Dinger. The format of this report consists of summary descriptions of the major programs, projects, and accomplishments in FY92. Publications, patents, talks, degrees awarded, and other information follow in tabular form. The intensive efforts ofMs. Christine Errante in editing and organizing this report and of Ms. Brenda Johnson for corapiling the monthly reports and generating '* the appendices are gratefully acknowledged. Note: Much of the above historicalinformation about MURR was obtained from notes graciouslyprovided by ProfessorNewell S. Gingrich, a member of the original Reactor Study Committee. James J.

Re-186, which has a gamma q ~ energy similar to that of Tc-99m and is therefore highly imageable, has a . therapeutic beta maximum energy of about 1 MeV and a halflife of about 90 hours. As the active component of Re-186 HEDP, Re-186 has proven about 80% effective in Phase I and II trials. With the advent of practical .i W-188/Re-188 generators (from ORNL and MURR), interest has arisen as  ; to whether Re-188 might prove a better isotope of rhenium for this agent. Re-188 has a halflife of 17 hours, a Tc-99m-like gamma emission, a beta ,7 energy over twice that of Re-186 (about 2.1 MeV maximum), and convenient availability from a long-lived generator. As rhenium HEDP is - known to localize on the bone mineral spicules situated between microscopic sites of cancer cells, there is speculation that the greater - effective cross-fire range of the betas from Re-188 may exert a stronger therapeutic effect.

JefTrey Denison, Senior Research Laboratory Technician Sindy Hays, Research Laboratory Technician The Nuclear Archaeology and Geochemistry Group, or"the Archaeometry Group" t as we are frequently called, uses neutron activation analysis (NAA) to characterize thirty or more trace elements in artifacts and geological specimens. These data are used by archaeologists to determine the origins of artifacts and by geochemists to investigate the natural processes that created different types ofigneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. The Archaeometry Group has an extensive network of student and faculty collaborators from MU and other universities. Major accomplishments during the past year include:

  • obtaining a three-year renewal of a obtaining a unique collection of our NSF Archaeometry grant, obsidian artifacts from the Valley enabling continued support for of Oaxaca in southern Mexico ,

F [": EXPERT SYSTEM FOR THE MURR CONTROL ROOM i Gin-Weigh Wu and Jay F. Kunze (MU Nuclear Engineering), Kiratadas Kutikkad and Walt Meyer (MURR) Modern computer technology, especially desktop microcomputers, permit the fast - accumulation of many data points, storage of these to a hard disk, and on-line evaluation of trends in these data points. This application is designated an expert system,"i.e., a computer monitor of a complex operational system, providing on-line evaluation according to an engineer-supplied analytical method. Such a - system would not substitute for an operator, but would nlert the operator to development of off-normal conditions. With the vast number of data points to be monitored, the computer expert system can pracess much more data than can the operator's eyes and brain, and can analyce more readily these data for trends and subtle changes, usually alerting the operator to them long before a conventional trip set point would give an alarm. Only recently such systems are being applied to co:nmercial power reactors, where there are hundreds ofimportant data channels, any one of which might give an indication of potential plant shutdown. A brief shutdown of a 1200 MW(e) commercial nuclear power plant is costly, typically requiring purchase of about $1 million of replacement power. A brief shutdown at MURR is not nearly as expensive, but costly nevertheless in terms ofirradiation and experiment interruptions, and stress on plant components. An expert system is planned for installation in the Control Room at MURR. The connections to the control system must guarantee that the computer can provide no - feedback signal into the control system, and in no way affect the control system readings or response. The several dozen channels being monitored must be recorded at a rapid rate, at least once a second, and as much as 1000 times per second for some, so that Fourier snalysis of the signal can be performed. The data acquisition system now being a.~embled has a capability of 20,000 data points per [ second, and the computer to manipulate the data will have a capability of about 10 l MIPS (million instructions per second). Installation in or adjacent to the Control Room is anticipated in spring 1993 103

UNIVERSITY REACTOR SHARING-The US Department of Energy has provided financial support for MURR's Reactor Sharing Program since 1980. During the annual reporting period completed early _ ' in FY92 DOE provided $73,000 to support the program and MURR has matched this ' with $33,507. DOE started this program to provide increased availability of. university nuclear reactor facilities to non-reactor-owning colleges and universities ' (user institutions). MURR, with our unique facility, also provides support to institutions with research reactors that do not have the capabilities to perform the required experiments. In FY92,39 research projects invohring 99 faculty and 41 students at the 31 institutions listed below were supported: Arizona State University University of Arkansas Auburn University University of California-Berkeley Cal State University-Fullerton University of California-Los Angeles Dartmouth College University of Chicago Franklin and Marshall College University of Cincinnati , Harvard University University of Conneticut Iowa State University University of Hawaii Johns Hopk. ins University University of Kentucky , Louisiana State University University of Massachusetts New Mexico Institute of Mining & University of Medicine and Dentistry of - , Technology New Jersey Oregon State University University of North Dakota Princeton University University of Rochester Purdue Univer sty Utah State University Ripon College Vanderbilt University Stephens College Washington University (St. Louis, MO) University of Arizona i Projects involved work in many fields including anthropology, archaeology, animal science, analytical epidemiology-nutrition, crystallography, geology, materials science, physics, cosmo-chemistry, biochemistry-nutrition, nuclear analysis , development, genetics and human nutrition. A list of some of the publications , resulting from Reactor Sharing projects at MURR follows.  ; p b 111 , I

NSF RESEARCH. EXPERIENCES FOR UNDERGRADUATES ATMURR L For the fourth consecutive year, MURR was selected by the National Science Foundation (NSF) as a site for a summer *Research Experience for Undergraduates" program, Eleven studenta representing seven universities participated and seventeen MU faculty and Reactor Center staffserved as mentors to provide research guidance and consultation for the students. Each student worked with one or two mentors to design and. carry out an individual research project. In addition, a dozen other faculty and reactor staffmembers joined the mentors in providing 35 hours oflecture/ discussion / training sessions for the students. MURR has now trained 44 future scientists in " Scientific Applications involving Neutrons

The staff continued to pursue the upgrade of reactor instrumentation and control equipment as well as reactor auxiliary equipment, to help ensure long-term reliability for producing neutrons. From July l,1991 through June 30,1992, the reactor operated at full power 90% of all available hours. There were 18 unscheduled shutdowns during the year.

workgroups to access common databases, and staff to communicate and exchange ~ files electronically.  ; The LAN spans four buildings with five wiring closets and 28 active network control - devices. Connection to the LAN is provided from every room in the building via 15  : miles of MURR-installed cabling. l The Computer Development group also supports the central computing facility for. [ the Center. This consists ofa pair ofMicroVAX III+ computers that provide support r for data reduction and analysis, word processing, spreadsheets and statistical analysis. Computer Development is involved in several long range projects: L

  • a new irradiation monitoring system for the silicon program l
  • a new generation control system for the new gemstone counting machine <

l

  • a new generation ofcontrol computer system for the neutron and gamma-ray spectrometers for the several programs on the beamport floor. .

INSTRUMENT DEVELOPMENT GROUP Ronald R. Berliner, Senior Research Scientist (Adjunct Associate Professor of Physics and Adjunct Associate Pmfessor of Electrical and Computer Engineering) Don Bryan, Computer Engineer Douglas Charlton, Computer Engineer  ; The mission of the Instrument Development Group is the design and fabrication of - , electronic instruments for research. The group has concentrated on the development of position sensitive neutron detectors, and their support sofl. ware for neutron diffraction applications, the fabrication ofcomputer interfaces for neutron diffraction instruments and the development of special purpose micro-controllers for process. control applications. t These three areas of activity have dominated the activities of the group for the past year. The renewal of neutron diffraction resources at MURR and the construction ofseveral new inst ruments has required the ID group to devote substantial resources to the fabrication of spectrometer computer interfaces. Four new interfaces have been constructed and a total of 25 stepper motor controllers and 6 Timer-Counters have been fabricated. The group continues to be responsible for the maintenance of the high resolution powder diffractometer position sensitive detector system. Several new capabilities and hardware features have been added to the system in the course of the last year. The instrument has completed 650 runs during the period July 1, a 1991 - June 30,1992. Fortunately,it has required little maintenance during the year.  : i R. Berliner was on leave at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology , Organization during the period March 1992 -July 1992 but several projects initiated j prior to that time were approved or funded during that period. A grant for the ! construction of a position sensitive detector for the residual stress spectrometer was t l- funded and work on ihe definition of the analog and digital subsystems for that , instrument are underway. The group has also undertaken the development of a new - j process control micro-controller using the MC68HC16 micro-processor. Finally, the - l group is participating in the development of new techniques for nuclear signal processing as part ofits effort for the DOE funded Smart-ADC grant. 151 l'

u Nuclear Analysis Program ' RADIOISOTOPE ~ PRODUCTION The three-part mission of MURR-research, education and service-is often overlapping and interconnected. Many research efforts iiwolve developing a tool, technique or technology that evolves into a service application, perhaps even is , picked up by industry and carried out on a much larger scale. ' Nutritional - - research carried out in the Nuclear Analysis Program at MURR has in the past several years employed some high specific activity radioisotopes that are not commercially available. MURR is the nation's only supplier, allowing scientists at many institutions to conduct new investigations into the role .  ! of specific trace elements.

                                                                                      ?
