Toward machine learning interatomic potentials for modeling uranium mononitride
Lorena Alzate-Vargas, Kashi N. Subedi, Nicholas Lubbers +4
Uranium mononitride (UN) is a promising accident-tolerant fuel because of its high fissile density and high thermal conductivity. In this study, we developed the first machine lear…
