The primary goal of this research is a fundamental understanding of the behavior of nuclear matter under the influence of the strong interaction. Strongly interacting matter is essentially all the visible matter in the universe. This goal is pursued in experiments that study nuclear matter under extreme conditions of temperature and density. They seek to discover and characterize phase transitions between matter composed of hadrons and matter composed of free partons (quarks and gluons) known as the Quark Gluon Plasma. This work will elucidate the behavior of the strong interaction and also the structure of the universe a few microseconds after its creation. The primary research tools are the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and its four heavy ion experiments. RHIC and its experiments are operational at their design parameters; in the first two running periods new and striking features of heavy ion collisions at the highest available energies have been discovered and their significance is being explored. The nuclear physics groups whose work is described in this proposal are key participants in the international collaborations performing research at RHIC. These groups also pursue the study of polarized proton collisions using the same suite of research tools. The goal is an understanding the spin structure of the nucleon. (See the Work Proposal under B&R No. KB0101022.) Secondary research goals of the groups whose work is described here are (in priority order):1. Understanding the behavior of quarks and gluons in nuclei through the study of proton-ion collisions, again using the same suite of research tools.2. Developing the physics and technical case for enhancement of these research tools for extended research in heavy ion physics.3. Exploring and participating in the heavy ion research opportunities available at other facilities, such as the CERN Large Hadron Collider. This work is performed in support of the DOE Mission on Science and Technology as defined in the Office of Science Strategic Plan. It addresses the Objectives of Exploring Matter and Energy, and specifically the Challenges of Components of Matter and Origin and the Fate of the Universe. It is a component of the Brookhaven National Laboratory Critical Outcome on Excellence in Science and Technology and particularly supports the Objectives of Research Quality and Relevance to the DOE Mission. 03/12/2001 M&O 12/23/2003 Aronson, Samuel H. 631-344-2051 Heavy Ion Research BNL Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Upton, NY www.bnl.gov AC02-98CH10886 11973 2003 KB0201021 Rhic Research 6126760 2000 NOBRINFOR 0 SC USDOE Office of Science (SC) Tannenbaum, Michael BNL Baker, Mark BNL Chasman, Chellis BNL Hallman, Timothy BNL P/GO--- 10/31/2000 IPST will develop an improved process for paper recycling.

It was the first magnetic fusion device in the world to perform extensive experiments with 50/50 mixtures of deuterium (D) and tritium (T) -- the fuel mixture likely to be used in the commercial fusion power plants of the twenty- first century. TFTR set a number of world records including a plasma temperature of 510 million degrees centigrade -- the highest temperature ever produced in a laboratory. In November 1994, TFTR produced 10.7 million watts of controlled fusion power -- a new world record. TFTR experimental operations were terminated in April, 1997 as scheduled. Activities in FY98 centered on data analysis with two primary objectives. The first was to publish the results from the last series of deuterium-tritium experiments carried out on during FY97. The second was to publish a series of comprehensive reviews of the physics learned from TFTR experiments during the Project's 14-year lifetime. The TFTR project is not funded for FY99 and beyond except for caretaking activities. Access to the extensive data generated during TFTR experiments will be maintained to permit the information to be applied to future studies and experiments for the development of advanced fusion concepts. 11/15/1995 M&O 11/16/1998 DeMeo, A.

G. PPPL P/PPPL--2 09/30/1996 The Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor was scheduled for decommissioning at the end of FY95 in anticipation of its eventual removal and replacement by the Tokamak Physics Experiment (TPX), which was proposed for construction at PPPL. The TFTR Shutdown and Removal Project has been canceled as a result of the cancellation of the TPX Project. The following provides a description of the originally anticipated scope of work for information purposes only. TFTR Shutdown and Removal (S&R) Project is required to insure that equipment is protected and preserved, the TFTR complex undergoes a safe shutdown, and the Test Cell, Test Cell Basement, Hot Cell, Pumproom, Data Acquisition Rooms and Control Room are cleared for future use. The Tokamak Removal portion of the S&R Project is required in order to meet requirements laid out in the Code of Federal Regulations and in DOE Orders (such as DOE Order #5820.2A). After the completion of TFTR deuterium-tritium (D-T) experiments, the TFTR and its auxiliary systems will need to be dismantled and disposed of in a safe manner. The proposed S&R Project is based upon the tritium operations underway on TFTR in FY94 and 95. The S&R Project plan assumes that at the completion of D-T operations, TFTR is allowed to cool down for two years prior to the initiation of the removal of the tokamak itself. During this period, safe shutdown of the facility will occur and outlying areas will be cleared. The S&R Project will be complete approximately 3 1/2 years after the end of TFTR operations. This proposal assumes that ER/WM funding will be available in a timely fashion to cover the shipping and burial costs of the radioactive waste. Knowledge gained from the TFTR S&R Project will provide valuable information for planning the Decontamination and Decommissioning of other fusion devices such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). 11/15/1995 M&O M.

The PBX-M includes a flexible collection of magnetic coils, advanced control systems and power supplies to achieve the shaping of the plasma cross section and a variety of tools for the control of the plasma pressure and current distribution, including lower-hybrid wave current drive, neutral beam and ion-Bernstein wave heating. Essential diagnostics include a multichannel motional Stark effect diagnostic to measure the current profile and a two-dimensional hard x-ray imaging system to measure the spatial distribution of current carrying electrons. Other important features of this experiment include a close fitting conducting shell for stabilization of long-wavelength external kink modes. As a consequence of constrained budgets and the higher priority to extend TFTR operations, PBX-M has not operated since 1993. It would be ready to resume operation upon conclusion of TFTR operation. In the post-TFTR period, the PBX-M program would study control of magnetohydrodynamic activity and disruption avoidance. These studies would be undertaken in advance tokamak plasmas, achieved with high-power auxiliary heating and profile control. 11/15/1995 M&O 11/06/1996 R.

TPX would develop the basis for an economical, compact, and continuously operating tokamak fusion reactor. TPX would demonstrate, for the first time, techniques required for continuous operation with both high plasma pressure and enhanced plasma confinement. TPX would not only incorporate new physics, but would also pioneer new technologies to be used in International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) and other future reactors. TPX would be the first tokamak with fully superconducting magnetic field coils. It would have internal nuclear shielding, would use robotics for machine maintenance, and would remove the continuous, concentrated heat flow from the plasma with new dispersal techniques and with special materials that are actively cooled. The conceptual design of TPX was completed in March 1993. Operation was proposed to begin in 2001. From its conception, TPX was a national effort involving participants from U.S. national laboratories, industry, and universities. Total Project costs in FY95 were $43,375,000, of which $10,360,000 was costed by PPPL. In October, 1995, PPPL was informed by the Department of Energy that the TPX Program would not be funded beyond FY95 because of cutbacks in fusion funding proposed by Congress for FY96. 11/15/1995 M&O J.

The flexibility of CDX-U allows concepts to be evaluated rapidly. CDX-U is one of a few devices in the world capable of studying spherical tours (ST) plasmas, which closely resemble a sphere with a hole through the center. Theories predict that these compact plasmas offer highly efficient magnetic confinement, substantial natural plasma current, and some ability to generate their own confining magnetic field. During FY04, research on CDX-U continued investigations of the interaction of an ST plasma with liquid lithium surfaces. The effects are being quantified for the first time in CDX-U, thus reducing uncertainties in planning for lithium walls in a large ST, advanced tokamak, or other fusion reactor design. During FY04, CDX-U focused on experiments with a toroidal-tray liquid-lithium limiter. In FY05 this device will be modified and renamed as the Lithium Tokamak Experiment. 11/15/1995 M&O 12/21/2004 Anthony R.

PPPL jmanickam@pppl.gov P/PPPL--7 09/30/1996 PPPL scientists are playing a leading role in an initiative within the U.S. magnetic fusion energy program to build a comprehensive, physics-based, computational model of a tokamak, i.e., a numerical tokamak, capable of predicting the diverse phenomena that are significant in governing the behavior and performance of the device. Significant progress has been made in the reproduction of key transport physics trends from the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor via the newly developed PPPL-S Model. These research activities represent an important component of the "Numerical Tokamak Project" involving a consortium of national laboratories and university research groups. The Numerical Tokamak Project was one of nine computational "Grand Challenge" projects selected by the DOE High Performance Computing and Communications initiative. The long-term goal of this initiative is to develop a "numerical tokamak," a physics-based computational model of the entire fusion device, capable of predicting such diverse phenomena as plasma turbulent transport, alpha particle confinement, plasma disruptions, and the transition to enhanced confinement regimes, and capable of evolving the plasma densities, temperatures, current, and mass flow. The existence of such a simulation tool can be expected to lead to significant improvements in our understanding of, and hence our ability to design and optimize tokamak fusion devices. 11/15/1995 M&O W.

In tokamaks, these range from the smaller high-field C-Mod at MIT to the medium-scale DIII-D at General Atomics to the larger-scale devices, the Joint European Torus in England and the JT-60U in Japan. Stellarator programs range from the smaller Wendelstein 7-AS in Germany to the larger-scale LHD in Japan. 11/15/1995 M&O 01/08/2008 Anthony R.

PPPL P/PPPL--9 09/30/1998 PPPL physicists and engineers have joined their colleagues from other U.S. fusion Laboratories, Europe, Japan, and Russia in a world-wide collaboration to design the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). The device would demonstrate the scientific and technical feasibility of magnetic fusion power. From 1988 through 1990, the ITER design team developed a conceptual design for the device. Since 1992, PPPL has been a participant in the ITER Engineering Design Activity (EDA) which was completed in 1998. During 1996-1998, PPPL provided physics and engineering design support for the US participation in the ITER EDA. Specific ITER physics tasks being performed at PPPL include: diagnostic design; power and particle control; fast plasma shutdown system; plasma equilibrium modeling; and plasma time-dependent modeling. The major tasks in which PPPL engineers contributed to ITER include: lessons learned on TFTR; effects of plasma disruptions on the in-vessel structure; power supply design; central solenoid design; magnet design; RF physics and engineering; and diagnostics engineering. 11/15/1995 M&O 11/16/1998 DeMeo, A.

The system could be arranged to provide the nearby "virtual presence" of the second person in two-person-rule work situations while the second person is nearby in a reduced radiation exposure area or a reduced explosive hazard area. The system could also be reconfigured for fully remote operation, to perform inventory functions in hazardous or controlled areas and to take credit for the inventory verification activities and also that no personnel have penetrated the storage location. MACS/ACRS consists of a base station and a mobile unit, used within the facility and manipulated by facility staffers. The base station and the mobile unit are linked by a fiber optic cable. Television cameras on the MACS mobil unit, linked to monitors at the base station, substitute for a person's vision. Remote-reading distance-measuring equipment (DME) is provided for use in verifying dimensions. A dead-reckoning system, based upon GPS technology, is provided to continuously track the mobile unit's position. Several channels of RS-232 are available to send signals from instrumentation at the mobile unit to the base station. All the MACS/ACRS hardware can be packed in a set of rugged shipping containers. The prototype MACS system was developed for the Defense Nuclear Agency (DNA) and must be turned over to them. In the first phase of the proposed work, a similar ACRS system adapted to DOE needs is being constructed, building upon knowledge gained in constructing the DNA version. The device will be improved in the areas of communication and rapid deployment, and use of the mobile unit as a platform for remote instrumentation will be emphasized. In the second phase of the proposed work, remote control and automation will be implemented and the mobile unit's position will be tracked on an AutoCAD floor plan. In addition, a comprehensive instruction manual containing procedures for field use will be prepared. 11/27/1995 M&O Pocratsky, Carl 3019032769 ACCESS BY CONTROLLED REMOTE SENSING D BNL Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Upton, NY www.bnl.gov AC02-76CH00016 Upton 11973 1995 060402000 150000 NN USDOE Office of Nonproliferation and National Security (NN) P/BNL--376 The goal of this project is to develop, test, and demonstrate a system which will obtain and store the gamma-ray spectrum of a specific item of SNM in inventory as a material control measure. The gamma-ray spectrum of a given item of SNM depends in detail on the isotopic composition, the mass and geometrical configuration, and, especially for Pu, the elapsed time since chemical purification. The recording and periodic updating of such a spectrum thus can provide substantial assurance that the material is what it purports to be, and that one item has not been, deliberately or accidentally, substituted for another. This task will produce software capabilities to analyze high-resolution gamma-ray spectra for SNM items and provide a "template" for verification of an SNM item. 11/27/1995 M&O Tardiff, Al 3019037670 SNM GAMMA-RAY FINGERPRINT MONITOR http://inform.bnl.gov:8080/cgi-bin/bpsearch?ti+inc+'Fingerprint' D BNL Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Upton, NY www.bnl.gov AC02-76CH00016 Upton 11973 1995 060402000 140000 NN USDOE Office of Nonproliferation and National Security (NN) P/BNL--377 The objective is to develop, test, and demonstrate a field-deployable gamma-ray spectrometer utilizing xenon gas near the critical pressure (58 atm). The spectrometer will function as a room-temperature ionization chamber detecting gamma rays in the energy range 100 keV-2 MeV with an energy resolution intermediate between semiconductor (Ge) and scintillation (NaI) spectrometers. With appropriate gas admixtures, the chamber will function simultaneously as a neutron detector. The device will be able to function unattended and collect and transmit data over long periods of time. The xenon gamma-ray spectrometer will provide improved capabilities in the areas of in-place item monitoring, confirmatory and waste characterization measurements. These applications will support MC&A policy implementation in the area of extending/automating physical inventories and safeguards closure of hard to measure SNM transactions. 11/27/1995 M&O Tardiff, Al 3019037670 XENON GAMMA-RAY SPECTROMETER D BNL Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Upton, NY www.bnl.gov AC02-76CH00016 Upton 11973 1995 060402000 200000 NN USDOE Office of Nonproliferation and National Security (NN) P/BNL--BNL Develop enhanced measurement capabilities for special nuclear materials. 03/11/1998 M&O 02/18/1999 Dave Gordon Science & Technology Development Projects A BNL Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Upton, NY www.bnl.gov AC02-76CH00016 Upton 11973 1998 GD0604020 359000 1997 NOB/RINFO 671600 NN NN-50(USDOE Office of Nonproliferation and National Security (NN)) P/LBNL--AC 03/06/2002 M&O 04/04/2002 Miller,Grace A GAMiller@lbl.gov 510-486-6726 AC Composite ESD A LBNL Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), Berkeley, CA www.lbl.gov AC03-76SF00098 94720-0001 2001 AC1005000 Exploration And Production 12807 FE USDOE Office of Fossil Energy (FE) P/LBNL--EW 03/06/2002 M&O 04/04/2002 Miller,Grace A GAMiller@lbl.gov 510-486-6726 EW composite ESD B LBNL Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), Berkeley, CA www.lbl.gov AC03-76SF00098 94720-0001 2001 EW4090100 Basic Science -1629 EM USDOE Office of Environmental Management (EM) P/LBNL--LB DNA Sequencing for Biothreat Reduction.

Plasma contact with the vacuum vessel can cause the sputtering of impurities into plasmas, quenching fusion reactions. Divertor modeling is a useful and cost-effective tool for assisting in the interpretation of existing experiments and the design of future tokamaks. The effort consists of the development and application of large computer simulation programs to model the outer (scrape-off) layer in diverted and non-diverted tokamaks, with the main emphasis on power and particle control issues. These programs are used to supplement other TFTR data analysis methods at PPPL and on experiments at other laboratories, such as Alcator C-MOD at MIT, and as such, are validated as much as possible using data from current experiments. They are then used to predict the performance of future experiments and reactor designs, such as the Tokamak Physics Experiment (TPX) and the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), and to assist in the design of power and particle control systems for these machines. 11/15/1995 M&O C.

This is a multi-institutional program including UCLA, ANL, INEL, FEDC, GAT, LANL, MIT, RPI, U. Wisc., McDonnell Douglas, and PPPL. The present emphasis of these studies is on the conceptual design of a fusion DEMO reactor that is scheduled to follow the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) in the plan for magnetic fusion. PPPL will contribute to the project in many ways, but most notably in the coupling of recent advances in physics results to the Reactor Design studies. Physics computer codes and analysis techniques used in the design of PPPL tokamaks, as well as in the design of the Burning Plasma Experiment, the Tokamak Physics Experiment, and ITER, will also be made available. For the past several years, the physics task leader has been from PPPL. 11/15/1995 M&O S.

A wave-particle mechanism has been identified, such that if 75% of this power is so channeled, the fusion power density is increased by about a factor of 2 at constant plasma beta, the toroidal current may come free, the helium ash is automatically exhausted, the fuel ions are necessarily drawn to the plasma center while being heated, and the alpha energy is unavailable to fuel unwanted instabilities. Certain of the key wave characteristics to accomplish this are present in the mode-converted ion Bernstein wave, excited off-midplane in a somewhat deuterium rich DT mixture. This project addresses all the issues that must be taken into account at once for this approach to tokamak fusion to work and to be optimized, including the physics of wave propagation and wave-particle interactions, the identification of new auxiliary waves, the reactor design, the implications for reactor engineering, and possible extensions to aneutronic reactors. The goals of this project are to identify experiments which test this theory, to identify which facilities worldwide might best contribute, and to determine how recent experimental data from TFTR and other tokamaks might be analyzed with a view towards documenting the relevant physical processes relied upon in the alpha energy channeling effect. 11/15/1995 M&O N. Fisch 609-243-2656 Applied Physics of Tokamak Optimization A PPPL Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), Princeton, NJ www.pppl.gov AC02-76CH03073 Princeton 08544 1995 AT101017Z 362000 SC USDOE Office of Science (SC) P/PPPL--13 The National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) is a major element in the U.S. Fusion Energy Sciences Program. It has been designed to test the physics principles of spherical torus (ST) plasmas. NSTX produces a hot ionized gas, or plasma, that is shaped like a sphere with a hole through its center, different from the donut shape of the conventional tokamak. The ST configuration may have several advantages, a major one being that plasma pressure can be maintained with a lower magnetic field strength. Since the amount of fusion power produced is proportional to the square of the plasma pressure, the ST concept could play an important role in the development of smaller and more economical fusion reactors. NSTX has achieved or exceeded all of its design parameters. The use of neutral-beam heating coupled with good confinement has resulted in the attainment of a toroidal beta approaching 40%, which is its target value. A higher beta means that greater plasma pressure, thus substantially more fusion power output will be produced with a given magnetic field strength. NSTX experiments involving Coaxial Helicity Injection (CHI) and High Harmonic Fast Waves (HHFW) have also been promising. CHI eventually could lead to the elimination of the ohmic heating solenoid, resulting in smaller, more powerful fusion reactors. HHFW could heat plasma electrons to high temperatures and sustain the plasma current needed for steady-state fusion reactors.

P/PPPL--67 09/30/2001 Attempts to arrive at a thorough understanding of energy and particle transport in magnetically confined plasmas have been hampered by a lack of a comprehensive transport model based on turbulence and solid experimental measurements that can support a theoretical hypothesis and vice versa. Three- dimensional images of the turbulence physics produced by theory (gyro-kinetic and/or gyro-fluid computer simulation) have been a remarkably successful in visualizing the complex physics of turbulence, but badly need a strong support from experimental measurement of turbulence. Since the conventional diagnostic tools are only able to provide partial proofs, the purpose of this project is to develop a conceptual experimental plan that can support this visual image.

PPPL P/PPPL--92 Plasma conditions in the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory resemble those of many stellar environments. The objectives of this project are to simulate stellar plasmas, in particular flares and hot coronae, and the interaction of solar wind ions with cometary gases under controlled laboratory conditions on the NSTX. We are directly addressing issues that are important for the understanding of the astrophysical sources observed with the Chandra X-ray Observatory and the X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission.

PPPL P/PPPL--93 Wave-plasma interactions play a fundamental role in understanding many different phenomena in both space and Laboratory plasmas. Their importance in fusion research relates to the successful use of radiofrequency waves for plasma heating and plasma current drive. To date, advanced models have been developed for specific phenomena involved in the heating and current drive processes. The grand challenge now is to develop the capability to integrate these models for the wave coupling, core heating and current drive, and wave-driven modifications of the plasma equilibrium and stability to enable the time-dependent simulation of these complex intertwined processes. The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) is participating in a multi-institutional project entitled Center for Simulation of Wave-Plasma Interactions, which has been funded to address this challenge. 03/07/2002 M&O 09/14/2009 Anthony R.
