Multiscale multiphysics coupling analysis of UO2–SiCw accident-tolerant fuel with optimized whisker orientation

Nuclear Engineering and Technology
Doping with high thermal conductivity second-phase materials such as SiC is a promising strategy for enhancing fuel performance. This study focuses on SiC whiskers (SiCw) and evaluates the feasibility of further enhancing in-reactor fuel performance via ...

Relativistic calculations of the isotope shifts in highly charged Li-like ions

, 2014
Relativistic calculations of the isotope shifts of energy levels in highly charged Li-like ions are performed. The nuclear recoil (mass shift) contributions are calculated by merging the perturbative and large-scale configuration-interaction Dirac-Fock ...

A laser excitation scheme for $^{229\text{m}}$Th

, 2017
Direct laser excitation of the lowest known nuclear excited state in $^{229}$Th has been a longstanding objective. It is generally assumed that reaching this goal would require a considerably reduced uncertainty of the isomer's excitation energy compared

Electronic structure and the Fermi surface of ThRhIn$_5$ in comparison with uranium and transuranium compounds

, 2005
By using a relativistic linear augmented-plane-wave method, we clarify energy band structure and the Fermi surfaces of recently synthesized thorium compound ThRhIn$_5$. We find several cylindrical Fermi surface sheets, which are similar to those of CeTIn$

Challenging the thorium-immobility paradigm

Scientific Reports, 2019
Thorium is the most abundant actinide in the Earth’s crust and has universally been considered one of the most immobile elements in natural aqueous systems.
