Possibility of a life-time extension for wwer-1000 reactor pressure vessels beyond the design period
Trudy Odesskogo Politehničeskogo Universiteta, 2020 At present a life-time extension for WWER-1000 reactor pressure vessels is an actual issue in Ukraine. For a decision about the life-time extension it is needed to assess mechanical properties and the critical brittleness temperature TK for the RPV ...

Turn-off time improvement by fast neutron irradiation on pnp Si Bipolar Junction Transistor
Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022 Long turn-off time limits high frequency operation of Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs). Turn-off time decreases with increases in the recombination rate of minority carriers at switching transients.

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 27-82., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Response of RadFET dosimeters to high fluences of fast neutrons [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2005 We present irradiation experiments carried out on RadFETs in the high-intensity T2 neutron beam at the CRC-UCL in Belgium. The aim of the test was to characterize the neutron response of RadFETs in view of their use as an integrated part of a radiation-monitoring sensor for the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments.

Fast neutron irradiation effects on Si- and GaN-based avalanche photodiodes
Results in Physics, 2022 We report the behaviour of the dark current and gain characteristics of Si- and GaN-based avalanche photodiodes (APDs) irradiated by fast neutrons. For Si-based APDs, the dark current increases with the increase of neutron fluence, indicating that the ...
