Initially the O2 Research and Development Program for Douglas United Nuclear, Inc., for FY 1966 was contained in six 189-forms R-1 through R-4 and M-1 and M-2. Although the authors are currently in a period of transition to the Five Year Research and Development Program, this document reports on the programs as originally set forth. The subprograms designated by R pertain to reactor research and development, and those designated by M pertain to metallurgy or fuels research and development. The report covers the progress in each of the subprograms on an individual basis for the period July 1, 1965 through october 31, 1965. Although the reports are brief, they are complete. A few of the items are listed in the reports on the subprograms that have been performed on product cost funds but were made possible by earlier research and development effort. The following programs are covered: (1) radioisotope reduction reactor effluent; (2) nuclear and radiation safety; (3) production of clean U-233; (4) production development studies; (5) alternate cladding process; and (6) fuel development
