# HTR-10

HTR-10 is a 10 MWt prototype high-temperature gas-cooled, pebble-bed reactor at Tsinghua University in China. Construction began in 1995, achieving its first criticality in December 2000, and was operated in full power condition in January 2003.
Two HTR-PM reactors, scaled up versions of the HTR-10 with 250-MWt capacity, were installed at the Shidao Bay Nuclear Power Plant near the city of Rongcheng in Shandong Province and achieved first criticality in September 2021.

## Development

The Institute of Nuclear Energy Technology (INET) of Tsinghua University is the lead designer for the HTR-10 reactor. The project was approved by the State Council in March 1992. The Design Criteria and Safety Analysis Report for the HTR-10 were approved in August 1992 and March 1993. In August 1994, Siemens/Interatom reviewed the fundamental design of the HTR-10 and exchanged knowledge gained from their advanced design efforts on the HTR-MODUL with INET. Like the HTR-MODUL, HTR-10 is claimed to be fundamentally safer, potentially cheaper and more efficient than other nuclear reactor designs. Outlet temperature ranges between 700 and 750 °C (1,300–1,375 °F).
HTR-10 is a pebble-bed high-temperature gas reactor utilizing spherical fuel elements with ceramic coated fuel particles. The reactor core has a diameter of 1.8 metres (5 ft 11 in), a mean height of 1.97 metres (6 ft 6 in) and the volume of 5.0 cubic metres (180 cu ft), and is surrounded by graphite reflectors. The core is composed of 27,000 fuel elements. The fuel elements use low enriched uranium with a design mean burn up of 80,000 MWd/t. The pressure of the primary helium coolant circuit is 3.0 megapascals (440 psi).

# HD 79498

HD 79498 is a double star in the northern constellation of Cancer. The primary component of this pair has an orbiting exoplanet companion. This star is too faint to be viewed with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 8.05. The system is located at a distance of 159 light years based on parallax measurements, and is drifting further away with a heliocentric radial velocity of 20 km/s. It has a relatively high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at an angular rate of 0.2″·yr$^{−1}$.
The primary, designated component A, is a G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G5 V. It has 8% greater mass compared to the Sun and a 5% larger girth. The star is estimated to be 2.8 billion years old and appears to be spinning slowly with a projected rotational velocity of 2.0 km/s. It has a higher than solar abundance of elements other than hydrogen and helium; what astronomers term a metal-rich star. The star is radiating 7% more luminosity than the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,800 K. There appears to be only a low level of magnetic activity in the star's chromosphere.
The secondary member, component B, is located at a projected separation of 2,900 AU from the primary. It is a small red dwarf of spectral class M0 V.

## Planetary system

The McDonald Observatory planet search program discovered an exoplanet orbiting the primary in 2011 using the radial velocity method.

# Habib Qahwaji

Habib Qahwaji (1932–2023) was a Palestinian teacher, writer and political activist. He is known for being one of the founders of the Al Ard movement based in Israel. He was a member of the executive committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) from 1977 to 1981. He was one of the Palestinian activists who presented new ways of thinking about the Palestine cause.

## Early life

Qahwaji was born in Fassuta, Upper Galilee, Palestine, in 1932. He hailed from a Greek Orthodox family. His father, Nofal, was one of the early teachers in the region.

## Career and activities

Qahwaji worked as a teacher of Arabic language at the Orthodox Secondary School in Haifa. He also taught at the Terra Sancta College in Nazareth. He was a member of the Arab Popular Front. Following the dissolution of the Front he founded a pan-Arab movement, Al Ard, in Israel in 1959 together with Mansur Qardawsh. The founding meeting of the movement was held in Nazareth in April 1959. The other leading figures of Al Ard included Sabri Jiryis, Salih Baransi, and Muhammad Miari. The movement was a supporter of Nasserism. The group launched a newspaper, Al Ard, in late 1959 under the ownership of Qahwaji.
Qahwaji was arrested and imprisoned in Haifa in 1961. Following his release from prison he was removed from the teaching post and opened a coffee shop in Wadi Nisnas neighborhood of Haifa. He joined the PLO in 1964 when it was established.
Al Ard was preparing to run for the Knesset elections in 1965 under an independent list called Socialist list. However, Qahwaji and other members of Al Ard were either arrested or forced to leave the cities where they were living. Qahwaji settled in Tiberias leaving Haifa. Later he and his wife were arrested and detained more than one year without trial. Then, they were expelled from Israel due to Habib's PLO membership. The Israelis also accused him of being a foreign agent.
Qahwaji family settled in Damascus, Syria, in 1968 after the Six-Day War. He established the Al Ard Institution for Palestinian Studies based in Damascus and translated studies and books on Zionism and Israeli politics from Hebrew into Arabic. He published articles and books. He also wrote poems.
Qahwaji continued to publish Al Ard as a biweekly magazine in Damascus. He was a member of the PLO Research Center in Damascus and a contributor of its journal Shu'un Filastiniyya.
Qahwaji was not a member of the groups within the PLO and served as a member of the PLO executive committee between 1977 and 1980.

## Later years and death

Qahwaji went into self-exile in France and died there on 17 March 2023.

# HMS Amphion (1780)

HMS Amphion was a Royal Navy 32-gun fifth-rate frigate of the Amazon class built in Chatham in 1780 which blew up on 22 September 1796.

## Service

On 6 September 1781, a small squadron under the command of Amphion's captain, John Bazely, in conjunction with General Benedict Arnold, completely destroyed the town of New London, Connecticut, together with stores and shipping in the harbour.
On 3 January 1782 Amphion recaptured the British sloop Bonetta, which the French had captured at the capitulation of Yorktown on 19 October 1781.

## Sinking

On 22 September 1796, Amphion was completing repairs at Plymouth, England. She was lying alongside a sheer hulk close to the dockyard jetty. Being due to sail the next day, she had more than a hundred relatives and visitors on board in addition to her crew.
At about 4 p.m. she exploded without warning, killing 300 out of the 312 aboard. Among the few survivors was her captain, Israel Pellew, who went on to command a ship at the Battle of Trafalgar and ended the Napoleonic Wars as a Rear-Admiral. Pellew had been dining in his cabin with Captain Swaffield of Overyssel and the first lieutenant of Amphion when the explosion threw them about; Pellew managed to rush to the cabin window before a second explosion blew him into the water, whence he was rescued.
Apart from Pellew, two lieutenants, a boatswain, three or four seamen, a marine, one woman, and a child were the only survivors.
The cause of the disaster was never fully proven, but it was thought that the ship's gunner had accidentally spilled gunpowder near the fore magazine which had then accidentally ignited and set off the magazine itself. The gunner had been suspected of stealing gunpowder, and on the day of the disaster he was reported to have been drunk and probably as a result less careful than usual.
