WIPP’s SSCVS: A breath of fresh air
This spring, the Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management announced that it had achieved a major milestone by completing commissioning of the Safety Significant Confinement Ventilation System (SSCVS) facility—a new, state-of-the-art, large-scale ventilation system at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, the DOE’s geologic repository for defense-related transuranic (TRU) waste in New Mexico.

As the second part of this series, this paper describes the application of the statistical theory and multilevel formulation to the reactor Doppler effect studies. Analytical studies were carried out on the basis of the narrow resonance approximation. The studies were made in both the high-energy and the intermediate-energy regions, which are of great interest in fast reactor Doppler effect calculations. Some qualitative conclusions on the influence of the multilevel interference effect on the Doppler effect of fissile isotopes are also given.
