Es los últimos años se han llevado a cabo importantes trabajos de investigación, tomando el gas radón como elemento de evaluación en modelos de transporte atmosférico y así estimar el flujo de partículas. Además la utilización ...
García Morales, Héctor (Date of defense: 2015-01-16)
The 4th of July 2012 was a milestone date in the history of physics of the last decades. The discovery of the Higgs boson at the ATLAS and CMS experiments thanks to the proton collisions delivered by the LHC not only has ...
Gallart Escolà, Dani (Date of defense: 2019-09-27)
Heating plasmas to a relevant fusion temperature is one of the key aspects of magnetically confined fusion plasmas. Radio frequency (RF) heating with electromagnetic waves in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) ...

Casamor Vidal, Max (Date of defense: 2022-10-11)
The combined use of thermal-hydraulics system with sub-channel codes (TH-TH coupling) in transient analysis provides an integrated tool with the capability of modelling in detail both the core thermal-hydraulic conditions ...
Asamoah, Matthew (Date of defense: 2018-10-05)
The importance of fire as a potential initiator of multiple-system failures took on a new perspective after the cable-tray fire at Browns Ferry in 1975 The review have shown that the first generation Nuclear Power Plant ...
Bargalló Font, Enric (Date of defense: 2014-05-09)
The planned International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF) has the mission to test and qualify materials for future fusion reactors. IFMIF will employ the deuteron-lithium stripping reaction to irradiate the ...
Salvador Castiñeira, Paula (Date of defense: 2014-11-07)
A recent sensitivity analysis done for the new generation of fast reactors [1] has shown the importance of improved cross section data for several actinides. Among them, the neutron-induced fission cross section of 240,242Pu ...
