1. Propagation of Nuclear Data Uncertainties for Reactor Physics Parameters in Fluorine-19-based Molten Salt Reactors
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysikAbstract : It could be argued that a renaissance is taking place for the global interest in nuclear power - especially for the development of the next generation of reactor systems that aim at solving the problems with contemporary energy production with nuclear technology. One such proposed concept for Gen IV nuclear power is a Molten Salt Reactor (MSR), in which the nuclear fuel is in solution of a salt - often based on fluorine or chlorine. READ MORE

2. First Principle Calculations & Inelastic Neutron Scattering on the Single-Crystalline Superconductor LaPt2Si2
University essay from KTH/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : This work presents a comprehensive study on single crystalline LaPt2Si2, in which superconductivity and a charge density wave (CDW) coexist. The usage of density functional theory (DFT) modeling and Inelastic Neutron Scattering has been the primary form of investigation, in order to determine all the characteristic features of the sample taken under consideration.

3. Investigating the role of water in the protein dynamic transition
University essay from Stockholms universitet/FysikumAbstract : Proteins undergo a dynamic transition at approximately 220 K, also called protein ’glass’ transition, below which temperature proteins lose their conformational flexibility and become biologically inactive. The protein dynamic transition has been observed for several proteins utilizing different techniques, such as inelastic neutron scattering, infrared spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. READ MORE
