A Scintillator and Radio Enhancement of the IceCube Surface Detector Array [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
An upgrade of the present IceCube surface array (IceTop) with scintillation detectors and possibly radio antennas is foreseen. The enhanced array will calibrate the impact of snow accumulation on the reconstruction of cosmic-ray showers detected by ...

Microscale Mapping of Fiber Strain and Damage in Composite Wrinkled Laminates Using Computed Tomography Assisted Wide‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combines full‐field tomography with diffraction mapping to quantify radial (ε002$\varepsilon _{002}$) and axial (ε100$\varepsilon _{100}$) lattice strain in wrinkled carbon‐fiber specimens for the first time. Radial microstrain gradients (−14.5 µεMPa$\varepsilon \mathrm{MPa}$−1) are found to signal damage‐prone zones ahead of failure, which ...

Identification of prompt fission γ-rays with lanthanum-chloride scintillation detectors

, 2012
In this paper we demonstrate the employment of LaCl3:Ce scintillation detectors for the identification of prompt fission γ-rays from γ-radiation in contrast to other reactions. We present the properties of cylindrical 1.5 in. 71.5 in.

Ultra‐Radiostable Covalent Conformationally Interlocked Networks Enabling a Universal Radiometal‐Labeling Platform for Cancer Radioembolization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conjugated poly(imide dioxime)‐based microspheres establish a radiometal coordination‐driven conformational interlocked network with ultra‐high radiostability. This platform enables low‐temperature, multi‐radionuclide labeling for SPECT/PET/MRI imaging and radionuclide therapy. Mechanistic insights from EXAFS and DFT reveal enhanced stability, while in

Supercapacitor Safety: Overcharge‐Induced Failure Mechanisms in Electrochemical Double‐Layer Capacitors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved synchrotron radiography reveals the internal evolution of electrochemical double‐layer capacitors under abusive overcharge. EDLCs are shown to follow a thermally driven failure pathway involving electrolyte decomposition, gas generation, and structural collapse, distinct from chemically driven thermal runaway effects of Lithium‐ion ...

Fast-neutron heterogeneous scintillation detector with high discrimination of gamma background

Nuclear Energy and Technology, 2015
Neutron detectors have been widely used for monitoring security and illicit transportation of nuclear and radioactive materials. Distinguishing feature of such application is the necessity to measure neutron flux caused by the monitored items that is ...

Microfluidic Gratings for X‐Ray Phase Contrast Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work establishes a new protocol for the fabrication of X‐ray gratings that exploits the advantages of microfluidics and enables a more inexpensive, faster, and scalable production process. These X‐ray devices are fundamental for implementing X‐ray phase contrast imaging (XPCI) in laboratory and clinical settings, yet their costly and complex ...

Supramolecular Enforcement of Planar Tetracoordinate Halides

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A calix[4]pyrrolato‐indium scaffold preorganizes Li4 pockets that trap Cl−, Br−, and I− in strongly flattened to square‐planar tetracoordinate environments. Computations reveal low planarization energies for the heavier halides, while crystallography shows that their geometry is readily modulated by subtle supramolecular and packing effects ...

Reversible, Chemically Gated FRET via Ligand‐Activated Acceptors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fluorogen binding turns the compact FAST tag into a tunable FRET acceptor, with ligand chemistry programming spectral overlap and excited‐state lifetimes. Fluorescence‐lifetime imaging reads out energy transfer through the shortened donor lifetime, while simply adding or washing out the dye switches FRET on and off, reversibly mapping the supramodular ...

Operando X‐Ray Micro‐Imaging Reveals Spatiotemporal Evolution of the Oxidation State of Nickel During Dry Methane Reforming

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Operando X‐ray micro‐imaging enables quantitative determination of spatially resolved nickel redox rates during the process of dry reforming of methane and its subsequent regeneration. The support composition governs the local nickel redox dynamics, thereby exhibiting different local nickel reduction and oxidation rates. The spatiotemporal Ni oxidation
