Beam characterization at the neutron radiography reactor
… the east neutron imaging beamline at the Idaho National Laboratory Neutron Radiography Reactor (NRAD). The experiments which measured the beam's effective length-to-diameter ratio and image quality are based on American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards. An analysis of the …

Radiation Effects on Thermal Properties of Advanced Nuclear Materials
… Microscopy (TCM) measurements conducted at Idaho National Laboratory provided microscale resolution of constituent thermal properties, establishing a multi-scale characterization approach that bridges microscopic thermal transport mechanisms with bulk composite performance. These findings …

Positron annihilation spectroscopy to understand defect formation and evolution in neutron-irradiated Fe-Cr model alloys
… were irradiated at the Advanced Test Reactor at Idaho National Laboratory. These samples were irradiated at temperatures of 300, 450, and 550°C to doses of 0.01 and 0.1dpa (displacements per atom). DBS was used to develop a better understanding of defect formation in Fe-Cr base materials exposed …

SERPENT Modeling of the Transient Reactor Test Facility and Comparison with Measured Experimental Data
… fuel behavior under such off-normal conditions (Idaho National Laboratory, 2009). The TREAT Facility was an air cooled, graphite moderated, thermal spectrum reactor designed to test fast reactor fuels in over power and under cooling scenarios. The TREAT facility operated for 35 years. During this …

Raptor Use of the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory
… a basic ecological study of raptors using the Idaho National Environmental Laboratory (INEL), in southeastern Idaho, between 1991 and 1993 to assess effects of human activity on the site. Results were compared to previous raptor studies conducted on the INEL from 1974-1976 and in 1982, as well …
