Researchers Screened 92 Million Materials for a Better Way to Stop Neutrons
41+ min ago (256+ words) The study examines whether elemental mixing can produce neutronic cocktail effects. These effects occur when a material’s neutron-attenuation behavior differs from that expected from its individual elements. The effect is particularly important in nuclear systems, where controlling neutron transport is…...
