DOE-EM issues draft RFP for Hanford lab work, awards WIPP monitoring grant
The Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management issued a draft request for proposals on June 25 for the Hanford Site’s 222-S Laboratory contract. The 222-S Laboratory is the primary on-site laboratory for analysis of highly radioactive samples in support of all projects at the DOE’s Hanford Site in Washington state.

For computer simulation of plasma under thermonuclear conditions, alpha-particle transport models must be included in the predictive codes. Self-consistent transport models are not yet available; thus, semiempirical transport models developed for main ion transport have been used for alpha-particle transport simulations. The calculation method and results are presented.
