Fukushima plutonium effect and blow-up regimes in neutron-multiplying media

, 2013
It is shown that the capture and fission cross-sections of 238U and 239Pu increase with temperature within 1000-3000 K range, in contrast to those of 235U, that under certain conditions may lead to the so-called blow-up modes, stimulating the anomalous ...

Bright Monocompound Metal Halide Scintillator for Fast Neutron Radiography

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Metal halide scintillator, tetraphenylphosphonium manganese bromide (TPP2MnBr4), provides a significant benefit for fast neutron imaging. A fourfold increase in efficiency over traditional zinc sulfide screens is achieved by efficiently utilizing neutron interactions within its homogeneous structure.

Cooling of Accretion-Heated Neutron Stars

, 2017
We present a brief, observational review about the study of the cooling behaviour of accretion-heated neutron stars and the inferences about the neutron-star crust and core that have been obtained from these studies.

Neutron scattering at high temperature and levitation techniques

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2014
Studies of the liquid state present an obvious fundamental interest and are also important for technological applications since the molten state is an essential stage in various industrial processes (e.g. glass making, single crystal growing, iron and steel making).

Magnetic‐Field Tuning of the Spin Dynamics in the Quasi‐2D Van der Waals Antiferromagnet CuCrP2S6

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study reveals 2D character of the spin dynamics in CuCrP2S6, as well as complex field dependence of collective excitations in the antiferromagnetically ordered state. Their remarkable tuning from the antiferromagnetic to the ferromagnetic type with magnetic field, together with the non‐degeneracy of the magnon gaps favorable for the induction of ...

Neutron Energy Spectrum Measurements with a Compact Liquid Scintillation Detector on EAST

, 2013
A neutron detector based on EJ301 liquid scintillator has been employed at EAST to measure the neutron energy spectrum for D-D fusion plasma. The detector was carefully characterized in different quasi-monoenergetic neutron fields generated by a 4.5 MV ...

Enhancing Mechanical Deformability of Rigid Conjugated Polymers through Functional Additive‐Induced Persistence Length Modulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a molecular strategy to enhance the stretchability of conjugated polymers by incorporating plasticizing molecular additives (PMAs). PMAs reduce the persistence length and promote chain entanglement, enabling deformable thin films with preserved electrical performance. A systematic analysis combining rheology, neutron scattering,

Ethane as a Neutron Moderator at Cryogenic Temperatures

EPJ Web of Conferences
The study’s objective is to examine the neutron temperature response, using liquid and solid ethane at various cryogenic temperatures to evaluate the effectiveness of ethane as a cold neutron moderator in compact moderator systems. The experimental measurements were carried out at temperatures of 170 K, 135 K, 100 K, 70 K, 50 K, 25 K, 15 K, and 10 K ...

Neutron Capture by 208Pb at Stellar Temperatures

The Astrophysical Journal, 1977
Neutron capture cross section data for isotopically enriched /sup 208/Pb were taken at the Oak Ridge electron linear accelerator time-of-flight facility and analyzed for nuclear resonance capture parameters up to 825 keV. Two new capture resonances at energies (43.29 and 47.26 keV) near stellar interior temperatures were found.

Synthetic Aspects and Characterization Needs in MOF Chemistry – from Discovery to Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Overcoming the challenges of phase discovery, synthesis optimization and scale‐up, characterization, and computational studies is essential to accelerate the large‐scale application of MOFs. Life‐cycle analyses and techno‐economic analyses need to be performed to realistically assess their potential for industrial relevance.
