Measurements of stable ruthenium fission products in nuclear reactor fuel samples by Genna M. Patton, Zachary A. Torrano, Amanda Salazar, Jeffrey Miller, Matthew E. Sanborn, Susan K. Hanson

“…The measured Ru ratios clearly comprise inputs from both fission and neutron capture reactions. These measurements serve as important experimental validation of previous theoretical studies suggesting that Ru isotope ratios reflect the burnup of nuclear fuel and could be used to distinguish between reactor types.…”

Temperature Dependence of Electrical Properties and Crystal Structure of 0.29Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3–0.44Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–0.27PbTiO3 Single Crystals by Qian Li, Yun Liu, Andrew Studer, Zhenrong Li, Ray Withers, Zhuo Xu

“…We characterized the temperature dependent (~25–200°C) electromechanical properties and crystal structure of Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 single crystals using in situ electrical measurement and neutron diffraction techniques. The results show that the poled crystal experiences an addition phase transition around 120°C whereas such a transition is absent in the unpoled crystal. …”
