Characterizing the voxel‐based approaches in radioembolization dosimetry with reDoseMC

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 4007-4027, June 2024.
Abstract Background Yttrium‐90 (90Y$^{90}{\rm {Y}}$) represents the primary radioisotope used in radioembolization procedures, while holmium‐166 (166Ho$^{166}{\rm {Ho}}$) is hypothesized to serve as a viable substitute for 90Y$^{90}{\rm {Y}}$ due to its comparable therapeutic potential and improved quantitative imaging.

Neutronic Analysis of Accident‐Tolerant Cladding Materials in 3D Full Core BEAVRS PWR Benchmark Using OpenMC Code

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
After the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in 2011, the performance of nuclear fuel during accidents became a matter of great concern. To address this, a new type of fuel technology called accident‐tolerant fuel (ATF) has been developed with the goal of enhancing the ability of light water reactors (LWRs) to withstand severe accident conditions. Iron‐

Cold Crystal Reflector Filter Concept [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper the theoretical concept of a cold crystal reflector filter will be presented. The aim of this concept is to balance the shortcoming of the traditional cold polycrystalline reflector filter, which lies in the significant reduction of the ...

Worst‐Case Accident Analysis of Accident Tolerant Fuel in NuScale Using RELAP5/MOD3‐Based Code

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Research in nuclear engineering focusses on improving the safety of light water reactors (LWRs), driven by accidents like Fukushima in 2011. The severity of this accident was a result of active cooling system failures and cladding material oxidation resulting in hydrogen explosions.

The COsmic-ray Soil Moisture Interaction Code (COSMIC) for use in data assimilation [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013
Soil moisture status in land surface models (LSMs) can be updated by assimilating cosmic-ray neutron intensity measured in air above the surface. This requires a fast and accurate model to calculate the neutron intensity from the profiles of soil ...

Two-point theory for the differential self-interrogation Feynman-alpha method

open access: yes, 2012
A Feynman-alpha formula has been derived in a two region domain pertaining the stochastic differential self-interrogation (DDSI) method and the differential die-away method (DDAA). Monte Carlo simulations have been used to assess the applicability of the

Synergistic effect of La2O3 on mass stopping power (MSP)/projected range (PR) and nuclear radiation shielding abilities of silicate glasses

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
Photon and neutron attenuation properties of La2O3 based Li2O-SiO2-La2O3 glass system have been evaluated through MCNPX (2.6.0) Monte Carlo code at some photon energies of 0.256–1.33 MeV.

Correlated Prompt Fission Data in Transport Simulations

open access: yes, 2018
Detailed information on the fission process can be inferred from the observation, modeling and theoretical understanding of prompt fission neutron and $\gamma$-ray~observables. Beyond simple average quantities, the study of distributions and correlations
