How Particle Size Affects Consolidation Behavior, Strain and Properties of Li6PS5Cl Fast Ionic Conductors

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The densification process of Li6PS5Cl powders with varying particles size distributions reveals differences in smaller and larger distributions. Higher strain is revealed for the smaller particle size distribution from X‐ray diffraction. Discrete element method simulations uncover that the reason for the higher strain is not the particle size itself ...

Preparation and characterization of thermal neutron sensitive lithium doped polystyrene plastic scintillators

He jishu
BackgroundLithium-doped plastic scintillators possess the dual-mode detection capability for both fast and thermal neutrons, and combine the advantages of conventional plastic scintillators such as cost-effectiveness and the ability to fabricate in large

Characteristics of Plastic Scintillators Fabricated by a Polymerization Reaction

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2017
Three plastic scintillators of 4.5 cm diameter and 2.5-cm length were fabricated for comparison with commercial plastic scintillators using polymerization of the styrene monomer 2.5-diphenyloxazole (PPO) and 1,4-bis benzene (POPOP).

Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Phase‐Separated Cellulose Filler/Poly(Lactic Acid)/Elastomer Composites via Microstructure‐Informed Physics Simulation and In Situ Synchrotron X‐Ray Micro‐CT

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Phase‐separation microstructure and mechanical properties of a ternary biocomposite evaluated by integrated AFM, AFM‐informed FEM, and in situ X‐ray CT. ABSTRACT This study investigates phase‐separated cellulose filler/poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/elastomer ternary composites to enhance the mechanical performance of bioplastics. Atomic force microscopy (AFM)

A Compact Apparatus for Muon Lifetime Measurement and Time Dilation Demonstration in the Undergraduate Laboratory

, 2005
We describe a compact apparatus that automatically measures the charge averaged lifetime of atmospheric muons in plastic scintillator using low-cost, low-power electronics and that measures the stopping rate of atmospheric muons as a function of altitude

Recent laboratory tests of a hard x-ray solar flare polarimeter [PDF]

, 1999
We report on the development of a Compton scatter polarimeter for measuring the linear polarization of hard X-rays (50 - 300 keV) from solar flares. Such measurements would be useful for studying the directivity (or beaming) of the electrons that are ...

Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...
