Study on kinetic parameters characteristics of pebble bed reactor using HTR-proteus facility [PDF]
The inherent safety feature of a pebble-bed reactor can be observed from its kinetic parameters. Proper modeling for calculating the reactor kinetic is also a concern for safe operation during normal and transient conditions.

Rapid evaluation of particle properties using inverse SEM simulations
The characteristic X-rays produced by the interactions of the electron beam with the sample in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) are usually captured with a variable-energy detector, a process termed energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS).

Small Modular Nuclear Reactors
Small modular reactors (SMRs) encompass a large number of technologies at different stages of development. A key challenge for SMR stakeholders is the evaluation of SMR competitiveness with respect to large reactors (LRs). SMRs are usually considered less competitive than LRs because of a misguided application of the economy of scale principle. However,

ErB4 and NdB4 nanostructured powders are produced by mechanochemical synthesis. 5 h mechanical alloying and 4 M HCl acid leaching are used in the production. ErB4 and NdB4 powders exhibit maximum magnetization of 0.4726 emu g−1 accompanied with an antiferromagnetic‐to‐paramagnetic phase transition at about TN = 18 K and 0.132 emu g−1 with a maximum at ...
