Isotopic Inventory and Activity Calculations of Fukushima Daiichi Unit-1 Accident [PDF]
Nuclear characterization of the spent nuclear fuel in a reactor core is essential, especially in case of severe accidents. The radionuclide inventory and its activity can assist in the management of spent fuel handling, transport, or reprocessing. In this paper, the core of the Fukushima Daiichi Unit-1(FD-U1) accident was modeled using the Monte Carlo

Quantification of methane emissions in Hamburg using a network of FTIR spectrometers and an inverse modeling approach [PDF]
Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas, and anthropogenic CH4 emissions contribute significantly to global warming. In this study, the CH4 emissions of the second most populated city in Germany, Hamburg, were quantified with measurements from four ...

Nitrogen isotope fractionation during gas-to-particle conversion of NOx to NO3− in the atmosphere – implications for isotope-based NOx source apportionment [PDF]
Atmospheric fine-particle (PM2.5) pollution is frequently associated with the formation of particulate nitrate (pNO3−), the end product of the oxidation of NOx gases (NO + NO2) in the upper troposphere.

The proto-Earth geo-reactor: Reassessing the hypotheses
Recent high-precision isotope analysis data could be used to revisit the hypothetical past occurrence of a geo-reactor. Specific noble gas isotope signatures that could be generated by binary and ternary fissions were identified in volcano emanations or ...

Ground-ice origin and age on Herschel Island (Qikiqtaruk), Yukon, Canada
Glacial legacies preserved in permafrost such as buried glacial ice of the last ice age are of increasing concern in the Western Canadian Arctic. Permafrost collapse due to melting ground ice largely follows the margins of the maximum Laurentide Ice ...

Palladacarboxamide Capping Reagents for Carbon Isotope Labeling and Pharmaceutical Diversification
Herein, we present a method for carbon isotope labeling of arylamides via the coupling of air‐stable palladium carboxamide complexes and boronic ester/acids. A wide variety of functionalized boronic esters and acids have been coupled with simple palladium carboxamides complexes.
