PhD Thesis Read here: https://kth.diva-portal.org/smash/record.jsf?pid=diva2%3A2060123&dswid=1189 Abstract Uranium mononitride (UN) is a promising advanced nuclear fuel for Gen-IV fast-spectrum systems and small modular reactors due to its high uranium density and
I recently published my newest work on ‘Rapid detection of dimensional instabilities in ion-irradiated uranium mononitride‘. Abstract: Quantifying irradiation-induced dimensional changes typically requires destructive preparation or specialized instrumentation. This work

Frost Abstract: The diffusion of two volatile fission products, xenon (Xe) and krypton (Kr), in zirconia (ZrO) is investigated. Samples of Yttria (YO)-stabilised tetragonal ZrO were implanted with either Xe or Kr, at 300 keV, with a fluence of 1017 at./cm,
Abstract: Proton irradiation with a primary ion energy of 2 MeV was used to simulate radiation damage in UN and (U,Zr)N fuel pellets. The pellets, nominally at room temperature, were irradiated
