  1. 1. Machine Learning for Pulse Shape Analysis of Heavy Ions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Steven Hendrik Bijl; [2023]
    Keywords : Heavy Ions; Machine Learning;

    Abstract : Most of the Generation IV nuclear reactors designs are intended to operate with a fast neutron spectrum. This necessitates further investigation into nuclear fuel behaviour because fast neutrons yield a higher neutron multiplicity with fission fragments, significantly impacting the criticality assessment of these reactors.

  3. 2. Effect of powder spray drying on catalyst formulation in tablet form

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Kajsa Wahlgren; [2023]
    Keywords : Spray dryer; Catalyst; Powder; Flowability; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Heterogenous catalysts consist of a large surface area support material applied with the catalytic active phase, and the activity of a catalyst is often correlated to the surface area per volume. Support materials often need to be processed further to be optimal for specific processes. READ MORE

  4. 3. Feasibility of HALEU-loaded Breed-and-Burn Molten Salt Fast Reactor without Online Actinide Treatment

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Lei Shi; [2023]
    Keywords : Molten salt; Chloride fuel; Fast reactor; Breed-and-Burn; Smält salt; kloridbränsle; snabbreaktor; avel och bränning;

    Abstract : Molten Salt Fast Reactors (MSFRs) have prominent advantages such as fuel breeding, nuclear waste transmutation, and inherent safety. They are the only liquid-fueled nuclear reactors currently receiving significant attention as fourth-generation advanced nuclear systems. READ MORE
