Localized nuclear reaction breaks boron drug capsules loaded with immune adjuvants for cancer immunotherapy. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2023
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a type of radiotherapy that induces cell damage through a localized nuclear reaction. Here the authors describe the design of a carborane-based covalent organic framework as a boron capsule loaded with immune ...

pynucastro: an interface to nuclear reaction rates and code generator for reaction network equations [PDF]

open access: yesWillcox et al., (2018). pynucastro: an interface to nuclear reaction rates and code generator for reaction network equations. Journal of Open Source Software, 3(23), 588, https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.00588, 2018
pynucastro addresses two needs in the field of nuclear astrophysics: visual exploration of nuclear reaction rates or networks and automated code generation for integrating reaction network ODEs. pynucastro accomplishes this by interfacing with nuclear reaction rate parameterizations published by the JINA Reaclib project (Cyburt et al. 2010).

Extremely rapid isotropic irradiation of nanoparticles with ions generated in situ by a nuclear reaction. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2018
Energetic ions represent an important tool for the creation of controlled structural defects in solid nanomaterials. However, the current preparative irradiation techniques in accelerators show significant limitations in scaling-up, because only very ...

Direct Nuclear Reactions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
In this brief review we discuss the basic theoretical concepts used in the experimental studies of the most common cases of direct reactions such as (a) elastic scattering, (b) inelastic scattering, (c) Coulomb excitation, (d) transfer reactions and (e) breakup reactions.

Uncovering Special Nuclear Materials by Low-energy Nuclear Reaction Imaging. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2016
Weapons-grade uranium and plutonium could be used as nuclear explosives with extreme destructive potential. The problem of their detection, especially in standard cargo containers during transit, has been described as “searching for a needle in a ...

Nuclear Structure and Simple Nuclear Reactions [PDF]

open access: greenPhysical Review, 1960
Recently it has become increasingly evident that some assumptions in the nuclear model used for the Monte Carlo calculations yield cross section values which are not in accord with experiment. In particular, calculations of ($p, \mathrm{pn}$)-reaction cross sections in the Bev energy range give values which are low by factors of two to nine when ...

Total nuclear reaction cross-section database for radiation protection in space and heavy-ion therapy applications [PDF]

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
Realistic nuclear reaction cross-section models are an essential ingredient of reliable heavy-ion transport codes. Such codes are used for risk evaluation of manned space exploration missions as well as for ion-beam therapy dose calculations and ...

MEASUREMENT OF 182,184,186W (N, N’ γ) CROSS SECTIONS AND WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM IT [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
Today’s development of nuclear installations rely on numerical simulation for which the main input are evaluated nuclear data. Inelastic neutron scattering (n, xn) is a reaction of importance because it modifies the neutron population, the neutron energy

Nuclear data for space exploration

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
Understanding the harmful effects of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) on space exploration requires a substantial amount of nuclear data. Specifically, the interaction of energetic GCR charged particles with spacecraft materials generates secondary radiations
