Advanced Science, EarlyView.A PAF adsorbent with multifunctional sites framework is developed for the recovery of environment iodine. Benefiting from the high density and accessibility of the favorable Coulomb interaction sites for iodide (I3− and I−) as well as the charge transfer sites for iodine molecules (I2), the PAF adsorbent realizes recording adsorption capacity for ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Bayesian inference of 1D activity profiles from segmented gamma scanning of a heterogeneous radioactive waste drum [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We present a Bayesian approach to probabilistically infer vertical activity profiles within a radioactive waste drum from segmented gamma scanning (SGS) measurements. Our approach resorts to Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling using the state-of-the-art Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) technique and accounts for two important sources of uncertainty ...
