Is the Shroud of Turin in Relation to the Old Jerusalem Historical Earthquake?
Phillips and Hedges suggested, in the scientific magazine Nature (1989), that neutron radiation could be liable of a wrong radiocarbon dating, while proton radiation could be responsible of the Shroud body image formation. On the other hand, no plausible

This review mainly summarizes the synthesis, optical properties, and underlying mechanisms of metal ion doping (including Tl+, In+, Mn2+, alkali metals, and alkaline earth metals) in tailoring the optoelectronic properties of Cs3Cu2I5 crystals for scintillation applications. Besides, it highlights the emerging application prospects of Cs3Cu2I5 crystals,

Scanning of Vehicles for Nuclear Materials
Might a nuclear-armed terrorist group or state use ordinary commerce to deliver a nuclear weapon by smuggling it in a cargo container or vehicle? This delivery method would be the only one available to a sub-state actor, and it might enable a state to ...

Strength α‐Quartz: New Results From High Pressure In Situ X‐Ray Diffraction Experiments
Abstract We present a suite of 13 uniaxial deformation experiments on fine grained polycrystalline α‐quartz conducted in a D‐DIA apparatus monitored with in situ synchrotron x‐rays. Experimental temperatures range from 25°C to 1199°C with pressures between 1.4 and 3.2 GPa, and strain rates between 3.4 × 10−6 s−1 and 1.8 × 10−5 s−1.

Neutron radiography as a tool for revealing root development in soil: capabilities and limitations [PDF]
Neutron Radiography (NR) is a valuable non-invasive tool to study in situ root development in soil. However, there is a lacuna of quantitative information on its capabilities and limitations. We combined neutron radiography with image analysis techniques
