Experimental Confirmation of First-Principles Thermal Conductivity in Zirconium-Doped ThO
Ella Kartika Pek, Zilong Hua, Amey Khanolkar +7
The degradation of thermal conductivity in advanced nuclear fuels due to the accumulation of fission products and irradiation-induced defects is inevitable, and must be considered…
Impact of dynamic Jahn-Teller effect on magnetic excitations, lattice vibration, and thermal conductivity in UxTh1-xO2 system
Saqeeb Adnan, Zilong Hua, Puspa Upreti +11
Vibrational and magnetic properties of single-crystal uranium-thorium dioxide (UxTh1-xO2) with a full range of 0<x<1 is investigated. Thorium dioxide is a diamagnet whose thermal p…
Phonon modal analysis of thermal transport in ThO2 with point defects using equilibrium molecular dynamics
Beihan Chen, Linu Malakkal, Marat Khafizov +2
Defects can significantly degrade the thermal conductivity of ThO2, an advanced nuclear fuel material as well as a surrogate for other fluorite-structured materials. We investigate…
