Swelling Mechanisms of UO2 Lattices with Defect Ingrowths. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The swelling that occurs in uranium dioxide as a result of radiation-induced defect ingrowth is not fully understood. Experimental and theoretical groups have attempted to explain this phenomenon with various complex theories. In this study, experimental

Assessing depleted uranium (DU) contamination of soil, plants and earthworms at UK weapons testing sites [PDF]
, 2007 Depleted uranium (DU) weapons testing programmes have been conducted at two locations within the UK. An investigation was therefore carried out to assess the extent of any environmental contamination arising from these test programmes using both alpha ...

The Journal of Physical Chemistry, 1957 The results of kinetic, x-ray, and density studies of the UO/sub 2/ oxidation products indicate that UO/sub 2/ oxiddzes by the immediate formation of a surface gamma -tetragonal U/sub 3/O/sub 7/ phase. This process is controlled by the diffusion of oxygen through the second phase.

Molten uranium dioxide structure and dynamics [PDF]
Science, 2014 Uranium dioxide (UO 2 ) is the major nuclear fuel component of fission power reactors. A key concern during severe accidents is the melting and leakage of radioactive UO 2 as it corrodes through its zirconium cladding and steel containment.

Anisotropic thermal conductivity in uranium dioxide [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2014 The thermal conductivity of uranium dioxide has been studied for over half a century, as uranium dioxide is the fuel used in a majority of operating nuclear reactors and thermal conductivity controls the conversion of heat produced by fission events to electricity.
