We discuss the bulk viscosity of hot and dense $npe\mu$ matter arising from weak-interaction direct Urca processes. We consider two regimes of interest: (a) the neutrino-transparent regime with $T\leq T_{\rm tr}$ ($T_{\rm tr}\simeq 5\div…
Modelling of crust heating and cooling across multiple accretion outbursts of the low mass X-ray binary MXB 1659-29 indicates that the neutrino luminosity of the neutron star core is consistent with direct Urca reactions occurring in $\sim…
Nanostructured materials enable high thermal transport tunability, holding promises for thermal management and heat harvesting applications. Predicting the effect that nanostructuring has on thermal conductivity requires models, such as the…
In this work we have performed a series of simulations of the atmosphere of GJ~1214b assuming different metallicities using the Met Office Unified Model (UM). The UM is a general circulation model (GCM) that solves the deep, non-hydrostatic…
Temperature dependence of the neutron-nucleus interaction is known as the Doppler broadening of the cross-sections. This is a well-known effect due to the thermal motion of the target nuclei that occurs in the neutron-nucleus interaction.…
The impact of point defects on thermal transport in uranium nitride (UN) is investigated using a MLIP combined with Green-Kubo (GK) and normal mode analysis (NMA) methods over 300-1500 K. In pristine UN, temperature-dependent calculations…
Evaporation studies of water using classical molecular dynamics simulations are largely limited due to their high computational expense. This study addresses that issue by developing coarse-grained molecular dynamics models based on Morse…
Nuclear burning plays a key role in a wide range of astrophysical stellar transients, including thermonuclear, pair instability, and core collapse supernovae, as well as kilonovae and collapsars. Turbulence is now understood to also play a…
We perform a comprehensive study of thermonuclear bursts from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1702-429 detected with NICER and XMM-Newton. The thermonuclear burst detected with NICER shows clear evidence of a photospheric radius…
The Pu-239 fission chambers are widely used to measure fission spectrum neutron flux due to a flat response to fast neutrons. However, in the mean time the resonance and thermal neutrons can cause a significant influence on the measurement…
Ultracold neutrons (UCN) with kinetic energies up to 300 neV can be stored in material or magnetic confinements for hundreds of seconds. This makes them a very useful tool for probing fundamental symmetries of nature, by searching for…
Nanocrystalline metals, i.e. metals in which the grain size is in the nanometer range, have a range of technologically interesting properties including increased hardness and yield strength. We present atomic-scale simulations of the…
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next-generation long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment designed to make precision measurements in the world's most powerful neutrino beam. Neutrinos are measured at two detector…
By means of NMR experiment and MD computer simulation we investigate the dynamical properties of a chloroadamantane orientationally disordered crystal. We find a plastic-plastic dynamical transition at T_x ~ 330 K in the pico-nanosecond…
Kinetics of homogeneous nucleation and growth of copper precipitates under electron irradiation of Fe_{1-x}Cu_x alloys at concentrations x from 0.06 at.% to 0.4 at.% and temperatures T from 290 to 450C is studied using the kinetic Monte…
Due to their large coherent scattering cross section, diamond nanoparticles (DNPs) are considered as a promising candidate material for a new neutron reflector. For investigation of scattering cross sections of packed samples, we have…
The equation of state (EOS) of materials at warm dense conditions poses significant challenges to both theory and experiment. We report a combined computational, modeling, and experimental investigation leveraging new theoretical and…
We demonstrate that Multi-Body Dissipative Particle Dynamics (MDPD) can be used as an efficient computational tool for the investigation of nanoscale capillary impregnation of confined geometries. As an essential prerequisite, a novel model…
We present an experimental study of thermally activated flux creep in a superconducting ring-shaped epitaxial YBCO film as well as a new way of analyzing the experimental data. The measurements were made in a wide range of temperatures…
The United States Department of Energy (DOE) has set ambitious targets for hydrogen storage materials for onboard light-duty cars which are to be achieved by 2027. One of the major problems in solid hydrogen storage materials is the…
