A simulational study of the indirect-geometry neutron spectrometer BIFROST at the European Spallation Source, from neutron source position to detector position. [PDF]
The incident detector rates that are anticipated for the indirect‐geometry cold‐neutron spectrometer BIFROST at the European Spallation Source are estimated, and the use of powerful simulation tools for the correct interpretation of neutron transport in crystalline materials is demonstrated.The European Spallation Source (ESS) is intended to become the

A feasibility study of the therapeutic application of a mixture of 67/64 Cu radioisotopes produced by cyclotrons with proton irradiation. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose 64Cu and 67Cu radioisotopes have nuclear characteristics suitable for nuclear medicine applications. The production of 64Cu is already well established. However, the production of 67Cu in quantities suitable to conduct clinical trials is more challenging as it leads to the coproduction of other Cu isotopes, in particular 64Cu.

Completeness Check of Experimental Fission Product Yield Data in EXFOR Database [PDF]
The IAEA conducted the completeness assessment of fission product yield (FPY) data in EXFOR database against two bibliographies that were used in ENDF/B-VI and UKFY3.0 library evaluations. We found that 194 articles are found to be relevant for new entry.

Abstract Background Manganese is a paramagnetic element suitable for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of neuronal function. However, high concentrations of Mn2 + can be neurotoxic. 52gMn may be a valid alternative as positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agent, to obtain information similar to that delivered by MRI but using trace levels of Mn2 + ,

Towards the high-accuracy determination of the 238U fission cross section at the threshold region at CERN - N-TOF [PDF]
The 238U fission cross section is an international standard beyond 2 MeV where the fission plateau starts. However, due to its importance in fission reactors, this cross-section should be very accurately known also in the threshold region below 2 MeV ...

Solution of neutron-transport multigroup equations system in subcritical systems [PDF]
An iteration method has been implemented to solve a neutron transport equation in a multigroup diffusion approximation. A thermoelectric generator containing plutonium dioxide, used as a source of thermal and electric power in spacecraft, was studied.
