Data-Driven Predictive Models: Calculational Bias in Characterization of Spent Nuclear Fuel

Characteristics of the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) are typically calculated, requiring validation a priori. The validation process relies on the difference between calculations and measurements, namely the bias. Usually, predicting the bias based on benchmark ...

Competitive Dehydrogenation and Backbone Fragmentation of Superhydrogenated PAHs: A Laboratory Study

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado, Robert Richter

Superhydrogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been suggested to catalyze the formation of H-2 in certain regions of space, but it remains unclear under which circumstances this mechanism is viable given the reduced carbon backbone stabilit ...

Treatment of the implicit effect in Shark-X

Mathieu Hursin, Hakim Ferroukhi, Alexander Vasiliev

Shark-X is a set of Perl-based tools build around the deterministic neutron transport code CASMO-5, used to perform uncertainty quantification for lattice calculations at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI). While perturbing an input parameter, e.g. a cross s ...

Development and Application of Data Assimilation Methods in Reactor Physics

Daniel Jerôme Siefman

Simulations of nuclear reactor physics can disagree significantly from experimental evidence, even when the most accurate models are used. An important part of this bias from experiment is caused by nuclear data. The nuclear data have inherent uncertaintie ...

Element Selective Probe of the Ultra-Fast Magnetic Response to an Element Selective Excitation in Fe-Ni Compounds Using a Two-Color FEL Source

Eugenio Ferrari, Primoz Rebernik Ribic, David Gauthier

The potential of the two-color mode implemented at the FERMI free-electron laser (FEL) source for pumping and probing selectively different atomic species has been demonstrated by time-resolved scattering experiments with permalloy (FeNi alloy) and NiFe2O4 ...

Partitioning of uranyl between ferrihydrite and humic substances at acidic and circum-neutral pH

Gabrielle Dublet

As part of a larger study of the reactivity and mobility of uranyl (U(VI) O-2(2+)) cations in subsurface environments containing natural organic matter (NOM) and hydrous ferric oxides, we have examined the effect of reference humic and fulvic substances on ...

Variation of the Fermi level and the Electrostatic Force of a Metallic Nanoparticle upon Colliding with an Electrode

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo

When a metallic nanoparticle (NP) comes in close contact with an electrode, its Fermi level equilibrates with that of the electrode if their separation is less than the cut-off distance for electron tunnelling. In the absence of chemical reactions in solut ...
