In-core dosimetry for the validation of neutron spectra in the CROCUS reactor

Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Pavel Frajtag, Axel Guy Marie Laureau, Yifeng Jiang

The present article describes the preliminary validation study of simulated in-core and reflector n eutron spectra in preparation of oncoming experimental programs in the zero-power reactor CROCUS at EPFL. For this purpose, a set of activation foils were i ...

Non-equilibrium kinetics and trajectory thermodynamics of synthetic molecular pumps

Cristian Pezzato

A major goal in the design of synthetic molecular machines is the creation of pumps that can use the input of energy to transport material from a reservoir at low chemical potential to a different reservoir at higher chemical potential, thereby forming and ...

Gas-Phase Ozone Reactions with a Structurally Diverse Set of Molecules: Barrier Heights and Reaction Energies Evaluated by Coupled Cluster and Density Functional Theory Calculations

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Peter Rudolf Tentscher, Daniela Trogolo

Reactions with ozone transform organic and inorganic molecules in water treatment systems as well as in atmospheric chemistry, either in the aqueous phase, at gas/particle interfaces, or in the gas phase. Computed thermokinetic data can be used to estimate ...

Mechanism and Kinetics of Propane Dehydrogenation and Cracking over Ga/H-MFI Prepared via Vapor-Phase Exchange of H-MFI with GaCI3

Matthieu Bondil

In this study, the mechanism and kinetics of C3H8 dehydrogenation and cracking are examined over Ga/H-MFI catalysts prepared via vapor-phase exchange of H-MFI with GaCl3. The present study demonstrates that GaH cations are the active centers for C3H8 ...

CHD3 Dissociation on the Kinked Pt(210) Surface: A Comparison of Experiment and Theory

Rainer Beck, Ana Gutiérrez González, Helen Jane Chadwick

To be able to simulate activated heterogeneously catalyzed reactions on the edge and corner sites of nanoparticles, a method for calculating accurate activation barriers for the reactions is required. We have recently demonstrated that a semiempirical spec ...

Effects of Zeolite Structural Confinement on Adsorption Thermodynamics and Reaction Kinetics for Monomolecular Cracking and Dehydrogenation of n-Butane

Berend Smit

The effects of zeolite structure on the kinetics of n-butane monomolecular cracking and dehydrogenation are investigated for eight zeolites differing in the topology of channels and cages. Monte Carlo simulations are used to calculate enthalpy and entropy ...

Activated Dissociation of HCl on Au(111)

We report zero-coverage reaction probabilities (S-0) for HCl dissociative adsorption on Au(111) obtained by the seeded molecular beam hot-nozzle method. For measurements at normal incidence with mean translational energies ranging from 0.94 to 2.56 eV (noz ...

Increasing Pt selectivity to vinylaniline by alloying with Zn via reactive metal-support interaction

Lioubov Kiwi, Charline Berguerand, Artur Yarulin

The promoting effect of Zn on Pt-based catalyst was studied for the liquid-phase hydrogenation of 3-nitrostyrene (3-NS). The monodispersed Pt nanoparticles (ca. 2.3 nm) supported on ZnO catalyzed the target 3-vinylaniline (3-VA) formation (S3-VA = 97% at X ...
