Studies of heavy element multi-nucleon transfer reactions using radioactive decay analysis of the 136Xe + 198Pt reaction at a center of target lab energy of 777 MeV (5.7MeV/A)

Creator:: McCaleb, Kyle M.
Abstract:: Recent experiments have advanced the current understanding of multi-nucleon transfer(MNT) reactions. Within nuclear science, most nuclear reaction experiments consist of a stationary target material, that is then bombarded by a moving projectile. Overall nuclear reactions can be used to produce a desired isotope. In the case of this particular study...

Radiation Detection Using a Semiconducting Nanocrystal Detector

Creator:: Rinaldi, David William
Abstract:: Nanostructured material has been projected to be the next generation material for the detection of ionizing radiation due to the uniquely superior physical processes associated with charge creation and by virtue of their optoelectronic tunablility. Semiconducting Nanocrystal (NC) detectors, by nature of their low band gap material, low fabrication costs,...

Investigating the Tibetan crust through automatic S wave detection and travel-time tomography using the Hi-CLIMB seismic array

Creator:: Riddle, Evan
Abstract:: The Hi-CLIMB broadband seismic experiment (2002-2005) operated 233 stations along an 800 km long north-south line from the Himalayan foreland into the central Tibetan Plateau and in a 350x350 km sub-array within southern Tibet and central and eastern Nepal. Station spacing was approximately 8 km along the line and 50...

Blood-based gene expression as a biodosimetry model for neuroblastoma patients treated with ¹³¹I-mIBG

Creator:: Edmondson, David A.
Abstract:: Internal dosimetry is challenging and relies on estimates using MIRD or ICRP biokinetic models. To address this, we looked at gene expression analysis in whole blood from radiotherapy patients. Patients with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma who received ¹³¹I-mIBG at UCSF were used to correlate internal ionizing radiation (IR) dose with...

Natural-color maps via automated coloring of bivariate grid data

Creator:: Darbyshire, Jane E.
Abstract:: Natural ground color is useful for reference maps as well as maps where a realistic representation of the Earth's surface matters. Natural color schemes are less likely to be misinterpreted, as opposed to hypsometric color schemes, and are generally preferred by map readers. The creation of natural-color maps was once...

Use of GIS software to map contaminant distributions and determine integrated dose for purposes of assessing impact to biota

Creator:: Myers, Margaret C.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to estimate the radiological impact on various non-human biotas by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear power plant radiation release resulting from Japan's tsunami in March 2011 consistent with the recent recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection. Soil concentration data given by Japan's Ministry...

Examination of uranium uptake by root vegetables and consequences for human consumption

Creator:: AlZahrani, Abdullah Bakheet
Abstract:: Uranium is the most common radionuclide that found in the nature. It is a radionuclide with a very low specific activity. There is limited data on plan uptake of uranium. This research was to determine the plant uptake of uranium, calculate the concentration ratio, and estimate the dose from eating...

Organic/Inorganic Hybrid Materials of Uranyl Peroxide Clusters and Uranium Minerals

Creator:: Neal, Harrison A.
Abstract:: Frontier research of non-aqueous actinide clusters is discussed. Since the inception of the uranyl peroxide clusters over the last decade, they have only been synthesized and characterized as solid crystals and in aqueous solution. This thesis provides thorough characterization of aqueous uranyl clusters and the first demonstration of uranyl cluster...

Characterization and Development of Ni-based Superalloys for Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Applications

Creator:: Adam, Benjamin M.
Abstract:: The advent of supercritical CO2 as a new heat-exchange medium has seen strong interest from the power industry and the energy research field recently. It is advan- tageous in comparison with other heat-exchange cycles, as it can be operated safely at much higher temperatures and pressures, thus increasing the thermal...

Survival Mediated Capture and Fusion Cross Sections for Heavy Element Synthesis

Creator:: Yao, Liangyu
Abstract:: The synthesis of superheavy element evaporation residues is described by the product of the capture cross section, fusion probability, and survival probability. Capture cross sections are moderately well known. The fusion probability is the least known with many uncertainties. The formalism for the survival probability is known, but the parameters...
