An investigation into the feasibility of neutron activating holmium-loaded, polymeric microspheres in the thermal column of a TRIGA reactor using MCNP5 simulation models

Creator:

Barreda, Gerardo E.

Abstract:

In intra-arterial radioembolization, nano- and micro-scaled carriers are used in patients with liver tumors that cannot be removed by surgery to deliver various radioisotopes with the aim of improving the outcome of tumor radiotherapy, of minimizing dose to healthy tissue, and of improving the quality of the diagnosis and imaging....

Abstract:

Microstructure changes in uranium and uranium/metal alloys due to radiation damage are of great interest in nuclear science and engineering. Titanium has attracted attention because of its similarity to Zr. It has been proposed for use in the second generation of fusion reactors due to its resistance to radiation-induced swelling....
