The 4th of July 2012 was a milestone date in the history of physics of the last decades. The discovery of the Higgs boson at the ATLAS and CMS experiments thanks to the proton collisions delivered by the LHC not only has ...
The calculations that allow the operating license of the nuclear reactors are usually made using conservative methods. This conservatism, often excessive, limits the actual capabilities of the industry to increase energy ...
Beta delayed neutron emission probability is one of the main properties of neutron rich nuclei away from the valley of beta stability. The knowledge of this parameter provides the opportunity to extend the information on: ...
The colossal risks and challenges posed by climate change require innovative solutions that must fulfil energy service demands sustainably. The concept of small-scale, biomass-based polygeneration (SBP) is one such ...
A recent sensitivity analysis done for the new generation of fast reactors [1] has shown the importance of improved cross section data for several actinides. Among them, the neutron-induced fission cross section of 240,242Pu ...
La determinació de l’índex alfa total en aigües és d’interès per ser un dels paràmetres inclòs en la legislació nacional e internacional associada a la qualitat de l’aigua per al consum humà. Aquest índex informa de la ...
Radiation therapy is one of the main modalities used for treating cancer patients, together with surgery and chemotherapy. Radiotherapy treatments can be carried out with a great variety of devices, but most treatments are ...
Dopaminergic neurotransmission SPECT studies with 123I-labelled radioligands can help in the diagnosis of neurological and psychiatric disorders such as Parkinson¿s disease and schizophrenia. Nowadays, interpretation of ...
