Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Neutrinoless double beta decay is the only process known so far able to test the neutrino intrinsic nature: its experimental observation would imply that the lepton number is violated by two units and prove that neutrinos have a Majorana mass components,

The measurement of arterial perfusion of the liver in man using the radioisotope xenon-133

open access: yesJournal of British Surgery, 1980
Summary The washout from the liver of xenon-133 injected into the thoracic aorta of human subjects undergoing cardiac investigation was monitored externally with a sodium iodide scintillation detector. The washout curve displayed an initial peak of activity, followed by a brief decline, and then a second, slower rise.

Analysis of 83mKr prompt scintillation signals in the PIXeY detector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Prompt scintillation signals from 83mKr calibration sources are a useful metric to calibrate the spatial variation of light collection efficiency and electric field magnitude of a two phase liquid-gas xenon time projection chamber.

Projected WIMP sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN dark matter experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a next-generation dark matter direct detection experiment that will operate 4850 feet underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, South Dakota, USA. Using a two-phase xenon detector with an active mass of 7

Isotopes in hydrology and hydrogeology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The structure, status, and processes of the groundwater system, which can only be acquired through scientific research efforts, are critical aspects of water resource management. Isotope hydrology and hydrogeology is a genuinely interdisciplinary science.

New attempts to understand nanodiamond stardust [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report on a concerted effort aimed at understanding the origin and history of the pre-solar nanodiamonds in meteorites including the astrophysical sources of the observed isotopic abundance signatures.

Decommissioning Cost Estimate for the Ghana Research Reactor‐1 Facility Using the CERREX‐D2 Software

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The Ghana Research Reactor‐1 facility would certainly be decommissioned, either at the end of its life or by a decision to discontinue its operation. In planning for GHARR‐1’s eventual decommissioning, estimating the overall decommissioning cost is a major activity that needs to be undertaken to support budgeting and decision‐making for the project.
