  • The Hall-C Moller Polarimeter measures the polarization of the electron beam arriving in Hall-C. It does so by observing the rate of production of Moller electrons at 90 degrees in the center of mass when the beam strikes a thin iron target. The outer shell electrons in the iron are polarized parallel (or anti-parallel) to the beam direction by a 4 Tesla magnetic field. The Moller electron production rate differs when the beam and target electron spins are aligned parallel or anti-parallel to one-another. Measurement of this rate difference provides a measure of the beam polarization.

  • (1) Division 1's Pressure Vessels can be Designed with Division 2's Design by Analysis
    Elastic-Plastic Stress Analysis Method of Division 2 can be used to qualify Division 1 vessels by elevating the design factors from 2.4 (Division 2) to 3.5 (Division 1).

    Stress-strain curves of any materials used in elastic-plastic analysis shall be computed according to ASME, Section VIII, Division 2, Annex 3-D STRENGTH PARAMETERS (2019, page 148). Don’t use measured stress-strain curves.

  • (1) Stress Concentration or Singularity

    For linear elastic analysis, there is no converged stress at the areas with stress concentration. The maximum stress is infinite just as the theory predicts. Thus, if there is stress concentration, the maximum stress in a linear elastic analysis is not a useful criterion to validate the structure.
