Accounting for the length-scale dependence of thermal diffusivity in 3C-SiC measured with transient thermal gratings
Keshav Vasudeva, Samuel Huberman, Angus P. C. Wylie +7
Pump-probe optical methods like transient grating spectroscopy (TGS) enable rapid, nondestructive thermoelastic property measurements. But, in phonon-dominated ceramics, they can u…
Detecting the Onset and Progression of Spinodal Decomposition using Transient Grating Spectroscopy
Maxwell Rae, Merrill Chiang, Mahmudul Islam +9
Spinodal decomposition can degrade corrosion resistance and embrittle materials. The ability to quickly, conclusively, and non-destructively detect the onset of spinodal decomposit…
Finding Trafficked Radiological Materials via Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering
Brianna N Ryan, Harold Douglas Pinckney D Pinckney, Michael P Short +1
The potential to use neutrinos for nuclear non-proliferation has been heavily debated due to the tension between production abundance and low interaction rate. A newly detected neu…
Role of chromium oxides and carbides in strengthening CoCrFeNi multi-principle element alloys
Artur Olejarz, Wenyi Huo, Anna Kosinska +7
Multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) can potentially offer exceptional material properties, but their complex, costly manufacturing limits their scalability. Chemical complexity…
A facility for thermo-mechanical characterization of fusion magnet materials during cryogenic ion irradiation
Akarsh Aurora, Alexis R Devitre, Angus PC Wylie +2
Commercial fusion power plants demand magnet materials that retain structural integrity and thermal conductivity while operating under the bombardment of energetic neutrons at cryo…
Long-Term Research & Design Strategies for Fusion Energy Materials
David Cohen-Tanugi, Myles G. Stapelberg, Michael P. Short +4
Fusion energy is at an important inflection point in its development: multiple government agencies and private companies are now planning fusion pilot plants to deliver electricity…
