Evaluation of memory-preserving models for particle transport in random media [PDF]
A shortcoming of the Levermore-Pomraning (LP) model is its inaccuracy to treat the transport of particles in a diffusive material alternating with a transparent one. Enhanced-memory LP models have been proposed by Zimermann et al.

Theoretical study of the porosity effects on the shock response of graphitic materials
In this paper we present a theoretical study of the shock compression of porous graphite by means of combined Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations using the LCBOPII potential. The results show that the Hugoniostat methods can be used with “pole”

C-BORD project: “Effective container inspection at BORDer control points”
In the framework of the C-BORD project of the H2020 programme to provide a safety chain for container inspection at border control points, CEA-DAM is involved to develop an identification method of Special Nuclear Material. Using active interrogation the

On the Wigner-Kirkwood Expansion of the Free Energy and the Evaluation of the Quantum Correction
The Wigner-Kirkwood expansion of the quantum correction to the classical free energy is generally said to be in powers of ℏ2 and only its first few terms are presented.

Mosul Dam: Is it the Most Dangerous Dam in the World? [PDF]
Abstract Mosul Dam is an earth fill dam, with a storage capacity of 11.11 km 3 constructed on highly karstified gypsum beds alternating with marl and limestone. After impounding in 1986, seepage locations were recognized. The dam situation now indicates that it is in a state

Plate-impact-driven ring expansion test (PIDRET) for dynamic fragmentation [PDF]
A new experimental set-up mounted at the muzzle of a singlestage gas gun has been designed in order to study the fragmentation of metallic rings under dynamic radial expansion.

Toroidal diamond anvil cell for detailed measurements under extreme static pressures
Extreme static pressures exceeding a million atmospheres exist in a variety of natural environments, but obtaining such pressures in a laboratory is still a challenge.

A new prompt fission neutron spectra (PFNS) measurement in the 238U(n,f) reaction was performed at LANSCE/WNR facility. Evaluated data show discrepancies on the low (below 1 MeV) and high (above 5 MeV) energy parts in the PFNS for different major and ...

Towards systematic large scale Quasiparticle Random-Phase Approximation calculations with covariant and chiral interactions [PDF]
One of the main methods used to microscopically describe collective states in atomic nuclei is the quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA). However, due to its high computational cost, systematic studies covering the full nuclear chart are rare ...
