Experimental studies of thorium ions implantation from pulse laser plasma into thin silicon oxide layers [PDF]

, 2017
We report the results of experimental studies related to implantation of thorium ions into thin silicon dioxide by pulsed plasma fluxes expansion. Thorium ions were generated by laser ablation from a metal target, and the ionic component of the laser ...

Landscape control of uranium and thorium in boreal streams – spatiotemporal variability and the role of wetlands [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2012
The concentrations of uranium and thorium in ten partly nested streams in the boreal forest region were monitored over a two-year period. The investigated catchments ranged from small headwaters (0.1 km²) up to a fourth-order ...

The impact of the enrichment of the radionuclide thorium in the water body caused by industrial mining on the local ecological environment [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2021
In order to further understand the impact of industrial mining on the environment, this study conducted environmental monitoring on the radionuclide thorium content in a water body in an industrial mining area in Gansu Province, aiming to fully ...

Antineutrino Geophysics with Liquid Scintillator Detectors [PDF]

, 1997
Detecting the antineutrinos emitted by the decay of radioactive elements in the mantle and crust could provide a direct measurement of the total abundance of uranium and thorium in the Earth.

Comparison of the minor actinide transmutation efficiency in models of a fast neutron uranium-thorium fueled reactor [PDF]

Nuclear Energy and Technology, 2022
In terms of nuclear raw materials, the issue of involving thorium in the fuel cycle is hardly very relevant. However, in view of the large-scale nuclear power development, the use of thorium seems to be quite natural and reasonable.

Synergistic damage behavior of He ion irradiation and molten salt corrosion in SiC at 750 °C

Journal of Advanced Ceramics
CVD SiC samples exposed to 400 keV He ion irradiation at 750 °C were subsequently corroded in FLiNaK molten salt at 750 °C for 166 h. After corrosion, the dissolution of Si led to the formation of a carbon-rich layer and obvious denudation of the SiC ...

Preliminary Study of Transient Simulations in the MSRE Primary Loop with Modelica/TRANSFORM

Energies
Compared to conventional solid-fueled reactors, the liquid fuel transport in molten salt reactors (MSRs) leads to a strong coupling between thermal-hydraulics and neutronics.
