This work reports the thermodynamic modelling assessment of the rather complex Cs-Mo-O system, which is key for the understanding of fission products chemistry in oxide fuelled Light Water Reactors (LWRs) and next generation Sodium-cooled and Lead-cooled Fast Reactors (SFRs an ...
Thermodynamic measurements on BaMoO4, BaMoO3 and BaMo3O10 are reported, that served as input for the development of a thermodynamic model of the Ba-Mo-O system using the CALPHAD methodology. The valence states of molybdenum in BaMoO< ...
In the context of a comprehensive campaign for the characterisation of transmutation fuels for next generation nuclear reactors, the melting behaviour of mixed uranium-americium dioxides has been experimentally studied for the first time by laser heating, for Am concentrations ...
To assure the safety of oxide-fuel based nuclear reactors, the knowledge of the atomic-scale properties of U1−yMyO2±x materials is essential. These compounds show complex chemical properties, originating from the fact that actinides and rare ea ...
