Cation Migration and Structural Deformations upon Dehydration of Nickel-Exchanged NaY Zeolite: A Combined Neutron Diffraction and Monte Carlo Study

Monitoring by in situ neutron diffraction of simultaneous dehydration and Ni2+ mobility in partially exchanged NaY zeolites

Propene adsorption sites in zeolite ITQ-12: a combined synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction study.

The adsorption site of propene in the small-pore, pure silica zeolite [Si24O48]-ITW-ITQ-12 has been characterized via Rietveld refinement of the crystal structure of propene-loaded ITQ-12 on the basis of synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction data taken at 298 K. The structure can be described with a monoclinic unit cell having Cm symmetry and unit cell parameters a = 10.436 angstroms, b = 1...

A Monte Carlo study of SPECT in boron neutron capture therapy for a heterogeneous human phantom

Background: Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a binary radiotherapy combining biochemical targeting with neutron irradiation. However, monitoring the boron distribution is a fundamental problem in BNCT. Prompt gamma rays emitted by boron capture reaction can be used to address the issue. Materials and Methods: The general-purpose Monte Carlo toolkits Geant4 and MCNP were used for the simu...

A structural study of praseodymium gallate glasses by combined neutron diffraction, molecular dynamics and EXAFS techniques

Neutron diffraction and Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) studies have been carried out on a range of praseodymium gallate glasses (Pr2O3-Ga2O3) prepared by aerodynamic levitation and laser heating. The short and intermediate range ordering around the rare-earth have been obtained by a multi-technique method. The results show that simple molecular dynamics simulations give a good...
