The Fission Fragment Rocket Engine for Mars Fast Transit [PDF]
In this paper we discuss the advantages and challenges of utilizing Fission Fragment Rocket Engines (FFREs) to dramatically reduce transit time in space travel, for example, traveling to Mars. We discuss methods to decrease the size and weight of FFREs.

Suppression of Pulsed Dynamic Nuclear Polarization by Many-Body Spin Dynamics [PDF]
We study a mechanism by which nuclear hyperpolarization due to the polarization transfer from a microwave-pulse-controlled electron spin is suppressed. From analytical and numerical calculations of the unitary dynamics of multiple nuclear spins, we uncover that, combined with the formation of the dark state within a cluster of nuclei, coherent higher ...

Noise-resistant quantum memory enabled by Hamiltonian engineering [PDF]
Nuclear spins in quantum dots are promising candidates for fast and scalable quantum memory. By utilizing the hyperfine interaction between the central electron and its surrounding nuclei, quantum information can be transferred to the collective state of the nuclei and be stored for a long time.

Comparison of the PLTEMP code flow instability predictions with measurements made with electrically heated channels for the advanced test reactor. [PDF]
When the University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR) was designed in the 1960s the potential for fuel element burnout by a phenomenon referred to at that time as 'autocatalytic vapor binding' was of serious concern.
