Orientation‐Dependent Upper Critical Magnetic Field and Density of State for Uranium Ditelluride
This study investigates the orientation‐dependent upper critical magnetic field (HC2) and the density of states (DOS) in the unconventional superconductor UTe2. These results reveal an anisotropic HC2, with distinct critical fields along different crystallographic axes, highlighting the role of electronic correlations and spin‐triplet pairing.

Crystal plasticity finite element simulations of cast α-uranium [PDF]
α-uranium, the stable phase of uranium up to 670◦C, has a base-centred orthorombic crystal structure. This crystal structure gives rise to elastic and thermal anisotropy, meaning α-uranium exhibits complex deformation and fracture behaviour ...

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.

Multi‐Century Grindstone Quarrying at Brumby Yard, Queensland
ABSTRACT The timing and duration of prehistoric quarrying is poorly understood within Australia, with limited ages available for quarries owing to the difficulties in dating these rock‐sediment constructions. We report the first multi‐sample, optically stimulated luminescence ages from quarry pits in Brumby Yard, an Aboriginal grindstone quarry ...

Soil uranium, soil gas radon and indoor radon empirical relationships in the UK and other European countries [PDF]
Least squares (LS) regression analysis is used to develop empirical relationships between uranium in the ground, radon in soil and radon in dwellings to assist in the development of a geogenic radon potential map for Europe.

Diverging Reactivity in Anilidophosphine Supported Group III Complexes
The coordination chemistry and reactivity of anilidophosphine‐supported scandium and yttrium complexes is reported and compared to their lanthanum analogues previously reported by us. The manuscript shows striking differences in the stability and affinity of the anilidophosphine ligand toward these lighter group III metals, resulting in divergent ...

EXTRUSION OF URANIUM, URANIUM ALLOYS, AND URANIUM COMPACTS. A Literature Search [PDF]
A bibliography of 240 references is presented on the extrusion of U, U alloys, and U compacts. The references were taken from Nuclear Science Abstracts and cover the period Jan. 1951 tc June 1961. (D.L.C.)

Abstract The world's population is expected to grow rapidly, with the vast majority of people living in urban areas. Closing nutrient loops is therefore increasingly important for food security and environmental stability. In Germany however, the current treatment of organic and green waste and sewage sludge (derived from wastewater) includes ...

In Situ X‐ray Diffraction Studies on the Reduction of U3O8 by Various Reducing Agents
The reduction of U₃O₈ by hydrogen, PVDF, and CaH₂ is investigated using continuous in situ X‐ray diffraction. Phase transitions, oxygen loss, and intermediate structures are analyzed. The study elucidates how different reducing environments influence reaction pathways and final products, offering new insight into uranium oxide chemistry relevant to ...
