Reconstructing the direction of reactor antineutrinos via electron scattering in Gd-doped water Cherenkov detectors

open access: yes, 2016
The potential of elastic antineutrino-electron scattering in a Gd-doped water Cherenkov detector to determine the direction of a nuclear reactor antineutrino flux was investigated using the recently proposed WATCHMAN antineutrino experiment as a baseline

Achieving Stable Paired Electrolysis of Captured CO2 and 5‐Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) via Tuning Anolyte Composition and Anode Surface

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Highly stable paired electrolysis of CO2 and biomass‐derived alcohol (HMF) is achieved by replacing conventional alkaline electrolytes with a tailored triethylamine‐carbonate buffer and anion‐conducting ionomer coatings. This configuration effectively mitigates electrolyte degradation and pH instability typically encountered in alkaline CO2 ...

Molten-Salt Depleted-Uranium Reactor [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
The supercritical, reactor core melting and nuclear fuel leaking accidents have troubled fission reactors for decades, and greatly limit their extensive applications. Now these troubles are still open. Here we first show a possible perfect reactor, Molten-Salt Depleted-Uranium Reactor which is no above accident trouble.

The rise and fall of the fast breeder reactor technology in the UK: between engineering “dreams” and economic “realities”? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This report explores the evolution of the fast breeder nuclear reactor programmes in the UK, from the period of great promises and expectations in the 1950s and 1960s towards their progressive abandonment in the 1980s and 1990s.

Reactores nucleares.

open access: yes, 1961
Sabemos que existen unas partículas sin carga eléctrica, llamadas neutrones, que pueden penetrar en el núcleo de los átomos venciendo la barrera de potencial eléctrico que existe alrededor de dichos núcleos. Dichas partículas son capaces, en determinados casos, de romper, de dividir, el niicleo atómico con que chocan, en dos partes más o menos iguales,

Photocatalytic Versus Stoichiometric Hydrogen Generation Using Mesoporous Silicon Catalysts: The Complex Role of Sacrificial Reagents

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study highlights the importance of accounting for stoichiometric hydrogen produced when utilizing Si photocatalysts. The stoichiometric contribution is sacrificial reagent dependent and decreases with increasing sterics around the catalyst surface.
