All these activities requires high precision experimental determination of cross sections for neutron capture, neutron-induced fission and neutron inelastic scattering on several isotopes, many of ...

Subtle quantum effects within atomic nuclei can dramatically affect how some nuclei break apart. By studying 100 isotopes ...

Radiation-induced volumetric expansion (RIVE) is a concern for any concrete structures that are exposed to neutron flux and other types of radiation that affect crystalline structures within the ...

Chain Reaction: The fission of these isotopes releases neutrons that trigger further fission in nearby atoms. Energy Release: This chain reaction releases a large amount of energy in the form of ...

"The customer is always right" is one of those phrases that’s been repeated so often in American culture it’s practically gospel. But anyone who’s ever worked in hospitality knows the truth ...
