A series of exohedral actinide borospherenes, An&Bm, and endohedral borospherenes, An@Bn (An=U, Np, Pu; m = 28, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40; n = 36, 38, 40), have been characterized by density functional theory calculations.

Relativistic effects are important to understand the chemistry of heavier elements across the periodic table (PT). Three important relativistic effects are: contraction of s- and p-orbitals (direct relativistic effect), expansion of d- and f-orbitals ...

N-donor ligands such as n-Pr-BTP [2,6-bis(5,6-dipropyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)pyridine] preferentially bind trivalent actinides (An3+) over trivalent lanthanides (Ln3+) in liquid–liquid separation. However, the chemical and physical processes responsible for

The structure and bonding properties of 16 complexes formed by trivalent f elements (M=U, Np, Pu and lanthanides except for Pm and Pr) with cyclopentadienyl (Cp) and cyclohexylisonitrile (C≡NCy) ligands, (Cp)3M(C≡NCy), were studied by a joint ...

Sensitivity analysis of minor actinides transmutation to physical and technological parameters
Minor actinides transmutation is one of the three main axis defined by the 2006 French law for management of nuclear waste, along with long-term storage and use of a deep geological repository. Transmutation options for critical systems can be divided in

As a class of typical metal-organic framework materials(MOFs), actinide-based MOFs feature their unique actinide-ligand bonds. However, how these coordination interactions participate in and affect the lattice assembly process of organic ligands remains ...

Alpha-cluster preformation probability in even-even actinide nuclei
The preformation probability of alpha cluster in the even-even actinide nuclei was determined using the cluster-formation model. The actinides chosen were with high and low intensity of alpha-decay mode. The results showed well production of preformation
