Simple and Complex Substrates (Sugar, Acetate and Milk Whey) for In Situ Bioremediation of Groundwater with Nitrate and Actinide Contamination

open access: yesHydrology, 2023
The complex contamination of groundwater near radioactive waste repositories by nitrates and actinides is a common problem for many nuclear fuel cycle facilities.

Anisotropic Phonon Dynamics and Directional Transport in Actinide Van der Waals Semiconductor Uranium Triselenide

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
USe3 is introduced as an actinide van der Waals semiconductor that mirrors the quasi‐one‐dimensional physics of transition‐metal trichalcogenides. Polarization‐resolved Raman spectroscopy on exfoliated flakes maps strong in‐plane phonon anisotropy and strain‐tunable mode shifts.

Ising exchange interaction in lanthanides and actinides

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
The Ising exchange interaction is a limiting case of strong exchange anisotropy and represents a key property of many magnetic materials. Here we find the necessary and sufficient conditions to achieve Ising exchange interaction for metal sites with ...

Broadening Hard‐Magnet Discovery Beyond Symmetry Constraints via Unified Effective Anisotropy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A unified effective‐anisotropy descriptor (Keff) extends hard‐magnet screening across all seven crystal systems, beyond the uniaxial restriction of conventional searches. Machine‐learning screening of 9320 known ferromagnets and diffusion‐model generation together yield 38 rare‐earth‐free or ‐lean candidates with DFT‐validated magnetic hardness (κ > 1),

A Thirty‐Year Gap: Reviving All‐Nitride Glasses as Processable, High‐Performance Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Oxygen‐free all‐nitride glasses are revisited in light of new avenues of synthesis, raw material availability, and applications. A semi‐empirical analysis predicts mechanical performance achieving the level of engineering ceramics while maintaining visual transparency, and significant potential regarding optical properties into the infrared spectral ...

On the Radiolytic Stability of Potentiometric Sensors with Plasticized Polymeric Membranes

open access: yesChemosensors, 2021
There is not much known on the stability of plasticized polymeric sensor membranes against ionizing radiation. While recent studies have indicated the applicability of potentiometric sensors with such membranes for quantification of actinides and ...

Deep Learning–Based Extraction of Promising Material Groups and Common Features from High‐Dimensional Data: A Case of Optical Spectra of Inorganic Crystals

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
We report a novel interpretation method for deep learning models based on feature extraction and clustering. Applying this method to an atomistic line graph neural network (ALIGNN) model trained on optical absorption spectra of 2,681 inorganic compounds obtained from first‐principles calculations, we successfully identify key factors underlying ...

Influence of Head‐to‐Tail Cyclization of Lanmodulin‐Inspired Peptides on Lanthanide Affinity and Structure

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The influence of head‐to‐tail cyclization, as well as the effect of ring expansion with an additional glycine on lanmodulin‐inspired peptides on the structure and lanthanide (Ln)‐binding behavior was investigated. While the decrease of structural flexibility can indeed increase the Ln affinity and peptide pre‐organization, it does not lead to an ...

Development and characterization of standard 241Am sources

open access: yesRadiation Protection and Environment
Monitoring of alpha activity is important in the nuclear facilities involved in handling of actinides. To detect their presence in routine samples, accurate and reliable estimation of alpha activity is required. This estimation is highly dependent on the
