A workhorse catalyst of vehicle exhaust systems — an “oxygen sponge” that can soak up oxygen from air and store it for later use in oxidation reactions — may also be a “hydrogen sponge,” scientists ...

Studies that explore how the denser sections of atoms, known as atomic nuclei, interact with neutrons (i.e., particles with no electric charge) can have valuable implications both for the ...

Neutron capture cross section measurements at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) have been pivotal in advancing our understanding of nuclear reactions that underpin both ...

Neutron cross section standards are important in the measurement and evaluation of all other neutron reaction cross sections. Not many cross sections can be defined as absolute - most are measured ...
