غلاف سوخت‌های هسته‌ای یکی از مهم‌ترین اجزا رآکتور محسوب می‌شود. این غلاف‌ها آلیاژ زیرکونیم ساخته می‌شوند؛ اما خواص ترمومکانیکی چندان مناسبی ندارند؛ لذا در پژوهش سعی شده با تغییر مواد به‌کاررفته NuScale به یک نوترونیکی و مناسب دست پیدا شود. قلب موجب ضریب تکثیر مؤثر طول بازه سوخت‌گذاری می‌گردد. شبیه‌سازی که M5 بهره می‌برد به‌عنوان معیار هم‌­چنین همراه سه نوع دیگر آلیاژهای رایج دو آن FeCrAl است، د...

A new concept in multifunctional anticancer agents is demonstrated. Tetrakis-(diisopropyl-guanidino) zinc phthalocyanine (Zn-DIGP) exhibits excellent properties as a photodynamic therapy (PDT) agent, as well as potential anti-metastatic activities in vivo. Zn-DIGP exhibits good cellular uptake and low toxicity in the dark (EC50 > 80 μM) and is well tolerated upon its intravenous injection into ...

The Dirac spin liquid ground state of the spin 1/2 Heisenberg kagome antiferromagnet has potential instabilities. This has been suggested as the reason why it does not emerge as the ground state in large-scale numerical calculations. However, previous attempts to observe these instabilities have failed. We report on the discovery of a projected BCS state with lower energy than the projected Dir...

Using structure-directing agents, pore space partitions of a Zn-phosphonocarboxylate framework have been achieved. Selective adsorption of CO(2) over N(2) has been greatly improved from ca. 9 : 1 to 94 : 1.

Fixed angle surface plasmon coupled fluorescence (SPCF) from iron thin films is demonstrated for the first time. The optimum thickness of the iron thin films was determined to be 15 nm using Fresnel calculations. The angles of minimum reflectivity for light at 496-814 nm were predicted to occur at a fixed and broad range of angles of 60-70°. Experimental corroboration of these predictions were ...
