Contribution to the validation of best estimate plus uncertainties coupled codes for the analysis of NK-TH nuclear transients 

    Pericas, Raimon (Fecha de defensa: 2015-05-15)

    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 ...

    Local optics corrections in the HL-LHC 

    Coello de Portugal - Martínez Vázquez, Jaime Maria (Fecha de defensa: 2021-06-16)

    In order to increase the performance of particle colliders, it is crucial to make the beam sizes at the collision points as small as possible. This causes an increase of the beam size in the region surrounding the collision ...

    Neutron capture cross section measurement of the heaviest s-process branching 204Tl and of 203Tl at CERN n_TOF 

    Casanovas Hoste, Adrià (Fecha de defensa: 2020-10-27)

    Neutron capture cross sections are fundamental in the study of the slow neutron capture process of nucleosynthesis, also known as the s-process, which produces half of the observed solar system abundances of elements heavier ...
