Localized nuclear reaction breaks boron drug capsules loaded with immune adjuvants for cancer immunotherapy. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2023 Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a type of radiotherapy that induces cell damage through a localized nuclear reaction. Here the authors describe the design of a carborane-based covalent organic framework as a boron capsule loaded with immune ...

pynucastro: an interface to nuclear reaction rates and code generator for reaction network equations [PDF]
Willcox et al., (2018). pynucastro: an interface to nuclear
reaction rates and code generator for reaction network equations. Journal of
Open Source Software, 3(23), 588, https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.00588, 2018 pynucastro addresses two needs in the field of nuclear astrophysics: visual exploration of nuclear reaction rates or networks and automated code generation for integrating reaction network ODEs. pynucastro accomplishes this by interfacing with nuclear reaction rate parameterizations published by the JINA Reaclib project (Cyburt et al. 2010).

Extremely rapid isotropic irradiation of nanoparticles with ions generated in situ by a nuclear reaction. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2018 Energetic ions represent an important tool for the creation of controlled structural defects in solid nanomaterials. However, the current preparative irradiation techniques in accelerators show significant limitations in scaling-up, because only very ...

Direct Nuclear Reactions [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 In this brief review we discuss the basic theoretical concepts used in the experimental studies of the most common cases of direct reactions such as (a) elastic scattering, (b) inelastic scattering, (c) Coulomb excitation, (d) transfer reactions and (e) breakup reactions.

Uncovering Special Nuclear Materials by Low-energy Nuclear Reaction Imaging. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 Weapons-grade uranium and plutonium could be used as nuclear explosives with extreme destructive potential. The problem of their detection, especially in standard cargo containers during transit, has been described as “searching for a needle in a ...

Nuclear Structure and Simple Nuclear Reactions [PDF]
Physical Review, 1960 Recently it has become increasingly evident that some assumptions in the nuclear model used for the Monte Carlo calculations yield cross section values which are not in accord with experiment. In particular, calculations of ($p, \mathrm{pn}$)-reaction cross sections in the Bev energy range give values which are low by factors of two to nine when ...

MEASUREMENT OF 182,184,186W (N, N’ γ) CROSS SECTIONS AND WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM IT [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 Today’s development of nuclear installations rely on numerical simulation for which the main input are evaluated nuclear data. Inelastic neutron scattering (n, xn) is a reaction of importance because it modifies the neutron population, the neutron energy

Nuclear data for space exploration
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 Understanding the harmful effects of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) on space exploration requires a substantial amount of nuclear data. Specifically, the interaction of energetic GCR charged particles with spacecraft materials generates secondary radiations
