Preliminary corrosion studies of P-91 in flowing lead–lithium with and without magnetic field for Indian lead–lithium ceramic breeder test blanket mo…

2014

To study the corrosion of P-91 (9% chromium and 1% molybdenum) material with lead–lithium (Pb–Li) eutectic, two experiments were carried out in a forced convection loop, at eutectic temperature of 550 °C. The first experiment was carried out at a velocity of 15 cm s−1 for 1000 h and the second experiment, at a velocity of 30 cm s−1 for 2700 h. In both the experiments, P-91 sample coupons were exposed to Pb–Li flow in the presence and absence of magnetic field. Samples were analyzed using an optical microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and electron probe micro-analyzer (EPMA). Micro-Vickers hardness testing was also carried out. Dissolution of elements into liquid metal is the main…

Comparative study of electrical behavior and phase transitions in pure and chromium doped α-LiIO3single crystals

1999

Abstract The polymorphic phase transitions of undoped and chromium doped α-LiIO3 crystals have been investigated by means of DTA experiments at slow heating rates and electrical measurements vs temperature and frequency. Upon heating the well known α ⇔ γ ⇒ β sequence appears to be influenced by the sample's morphology, acidity of the growing solution and doping. Dielectric response at room temperature is close to the type “superposition of d.c. ionic conductivity and dipolar response”. We describe the thermal behavior of conductivity along the c polar axis at three frequencies. Electrical measurements also highlight a higher value of ionic conductivity and a less destructive transition for …

Erratum to “Beta decay half-lives of neutron rich Ti–Co isotopes around N=40” [Nucl. Phys. A 660 (1999) 3–19]

2000

Abstract The neutron-rich 57−59 Ti, 59−62 V, 61−64 Cr, 63−66 Mn, 65−68 Fe, 67−70 Co have been produced at GANIL via interactions of a 60.4 MeV/u 86 Kr 34+ with a 58 Ni target. They have been separated by the doubly achromatic spectrometer LISE3. Beta-decay half-lives have been determined for all produced nuclei, and subsequent γ -rays have been observed for the most efficiently produced nuclei. The measured half-lives of vanadium and chromium isotopes are compared to QRPA calculations using ground states deformations from the FRDM or ETFSI models. In an astrophysical context, the short half-lives of 58 Ti and 64 Cr indicate that these nuclei are potential r-process progenitors, after β -dec…

Mobility of Cr and V in Spent Oil Shale: Impact of Thermal Treatment

2013

Abstract Spent oil shale samples were evaluated for potential chromium and vanadium release upon aerobic combustion used in power generation, or anaerobic retorting used in shale oil recovery. Combusted samples released more Cr than retorted or raw samples due to chromate formation. The behavior of vanadium was just opposite in that more V was released from retorted than from aerobically combusted samples, probably due to reduced vanadyl cation formation.

Short distance neutrino oscillations with Borexino

2014

International audience; The Borexino detector has convincingly shown its outstanding performances in the low energy, sub-MeV regime through its unprecedented accomplishments in the solar and geo-neutrinos detection. These performances make it the ideal tool to accomplish a state-of-the-art experiment able to test unambiguously the long-standing issue of the existence of a sterile neutrino, as suggested by the several anomalous results accumulated over the past two decades, i.e. the outputs of the LSND and Miniboone experiments, the results of the source calibration of the two Gallium solar neutrino experiments, and the recently hinted reactor anomaly. The SOX project will exploit two source…

Dielectric characterization and ionic conductivity of α-LiIO3 crystals related to the growth conditions

2000

Abstract The dielectric response of α-LiIO3 has been studied at room temperature between 20 Hz and 1 MHz with various types of electrodes and compared to the results in the literature. By changing the sample thickness, a relaxation of space charges is clearly identified and the bulk ionic conductivity is deduced from the admittance diagram. Finally a comparison is carried out between chromium doped and undoped crystals obtained from acid and neutral growth solutions.

A photocurrent spectroscopic investigation of passive films on chromium

1990

Abstract Photoelectrochemical experiments have been carried out in order to identify the passive layers grown on chromium metal in different conditions. Changes in the values of the band gap of the films have been related to changes of composition, due to the different water content of the films.
