The Brazilian Bragg curve detector built for AMS studies  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

A Bragg curve detector (BCD) has been designed and built to be used for AMS purposes. Its design is described and its performance, obtained in tests at the Australian National University (ANU), is reported. At a {sup 36}Cl energy of 154 MeV, the energy resolution was found to be 0.38%, and the charge resolution 1.3%. The {sup 36}Cl and {sup 36}S are completely discriminated. Good separation was also achieved at 64 MeV, and a measurement at this energy of the {sup 36}Cl/Cl ratio of a sample measured previously at 154 MeV with the standard ANU ionization detector agreed well with the earlier value. This very simple detector has been shown to be suitable for use in AMS programs.

Sanitation of the River Lahn concerning organic loads from waste water. Pt. 2. The impact of effluents from waste water treatment plants; Sanierung der Abwasserbelastung eines Fliessgewaessers am Beispiel der Lahn. T. 2. Klaeranlagenemissionen  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

In a case study of the River Lahn, Hessen, Germany, the ecological impact of effluents from sewage treatment plants was investigated. These emissions have a significant impact on the receiving water quality with ammonia, nitrite, phosphorus and the eutrophication as most important factors. Current legislation standards seem to be sufficent for the sanitation of the nitrogen load. The potential of phosphorus removal in sewage treatment plants however may not reach the demand for eutrophication abatement. Therefore, integrated and immission oriented strategies are required including in site measures of river restoration. (orig.) [Deutsch] An der hessischen Lahn wurde in einem mehrjaehrigen Forschungsvorhabens die Bedeutung von Abwasserereinleitungen aus Klaeranlagen hinsichtlich ihrer gewaesseroekologischen Relevanz untersucht. Wesentliche Belastungen beziehen sich auf die Parameter Ammonium, Nitrit und Phosphor sowie eutrophierungsbedingte ...

... Bob, who also teaches the Computer Networks and Security course in the Department, has some concerns when it comes to these large monolithic social-networking sites, such as Facebook and MySpace . He would prefer to see people using a more distributed (or federated) approach to avoid single sites being able to gather lots of personal information, including relationships between people . However, most ...

Future needs and requirements for AMS "1"4C standards and reference materials  

International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

"1"4C measurement uses a number of standards and reference materials with different properties. Historically the absolute calibration of "1"4C measurement was tied to 1890 wood, through the 'primary' standard of NBS-OxI (produced by the National Bureau of Standards, now NIST - National Institute of Standards and technology) subsequently replaced by NBS-OxII. These are both internationally calibrated and certified materials, whose "1"4C activities are known absolutely. A second tier of materials, often called secondary standards or reference materials, and including internationally recognised materials such as ANU-sucrose (now also IAEA-C6), Chinese - sucrose and the IAEA C1-C6 series, augmented by additional oxalic acid samples are also used routinely. The activity of these materials has been estimated from large numbers of measurements made by many laboratories. Recently, further natural materials from the Third and Fourth International Radiocarbon ...
