Authors: Galanina L. I. , Morzabayev A. К. , Alibayeva A. G.
Published: November 2024

This paper is a calculation of the differential cross section for the elastic scattering of hydrogen nuclei on exotic nuclei of a neutron-rich lithium-11 isotope by determining the optimal parameters of optical potential via the FRESCO 2.8 software using the strongly coupled nuclear reaction channel method with the spin-orbit and Coulomb interaction included. For lithium, the JP=3/2−- state was selected. The shapes of the elements of the scattering potential were chosen in the Woods-Saxon form. The selection of the parameters of the potential was based on the data extracted from the p+11Li scattering experiment conducted at 62 MeV in the laboratory coordinate system on the RIKEN cyclotron in Japan in 1992. In this work, it was found that the volume and spin-orbital parts of the potential, as well as the diffusion of the interaction, have values of zero or close to zero. The resulting cross section in the forward hemisphere of scattering is 70–75 times largerтthan the corresponding Rutherford cross section, and in the rear hemisphere, on the contrary, Coulomb forces dominate. The theoretical values confidently coincide with the experimental ones.

Authors: Bukina O. S. , Kukushkin I. M.
Published: November 2024

Applicability of the work is caused by the fact that tungsten was selected as plasma faced material of FR diverter. In this regard, Institute of Atomic Energy implements the work to obtain and study carbide coatings on tungsten. Following methane plasma affect tests under plasma-beam installation conditions, phase composition of samples surface layer is monitored. The X-ray phase analysis is carried out in the Laboratory for Structural and Fuel Materials Testing. Phase state definition is a typical task for X-ray phase analysis. The transformation processes of the tungsten crystal structure may precede the structural transformations occurring when the phase composition changes. Interpretation of the results requires additional information about the analyzed substances. The paper considers variations of phase transformations when interaction between tungsten surface and carbon, structural properties of tungsten were analyzed before and after methane plasma affect. In addition, it refers to peculiarities of their change and calculation. There are calculation results of structural parameters. Presented method is reasonable in terms of the physical basis of modern methods of structural and phase state studying of materials.

Authors: Maksimkin O. P.
Published: November 2024

The effect of neutron irradiation on the Md martensitic point in austenitic chromium-nickel steels X18H9T and 12X18N10T – structural materials of nuclear reactors is considered. It was established that up to a fluence of 2·1020 n/cm2 (E>0.1 MeV), the maximum possible temperature for the manifestation of the phase y→α transition for steel 12X18H10T varies in the range of 100–75 °C.

Based on the analysis of the experimental data obtained, it is proposed to consider another characteristic point Mp – a stretching temperature at which the values of the intensities of the direct martensitic y→α transformation are compared for deformable non-irradiated and irradiated steel.

Published: November 2024

This paper is devoted to evaluation of activity of the IVG.1M reactor coolant and estimation of the fission products (FP) yield from the fuel rods of experimental water-cooled technological channels with low enriched uranium (WCTC-LEU) using a sampling gamma spectrometric method. The article presents the results of studies of two experimental WCTC-LEU to determine the yield of FP into the coolant of the IVG.1M reactor using a sampling gamma spectrometric method. A comparative analysis of changes in the FP yield from both experimental WCTC-LEU and regular WCTC is presented in the considered range of energy release in the reactor up to 630 MW·hour. Research results show that the FP yield remains unchanged within fluctuations when conducting more than 30 reactor experiments. The paper shows that the FPyield from the experimental WCTC-LEU averaged over all registered FPs to R/B = 5·10−7 can be considered acceptable compared to the calculated yield for sealed fuel rods R / B = 7·10−7.

Published: November 2024

This work presents the experimental results of structural and phase changes research study in TiN coatings under thermal and electron irradiation. Continuous electron irradiation of coated samples was performed on the ELV-4 accelerator. It was determined that electron irradiation with an electron energy of 1.3 MeV and an integral irradiation dose of 0.52·1019 e−/cm2 leads to an increase in the microhardness of TiN coatings by 20%. It has been established that the main factor in increasing the microhardness of the coating after electron irradiation in the above regimes is the formation of new phases, in particular the intermetallide of Co2Ti.

Authors: Kabdyrakova A. , Mendubayev A.
Published: November 2024

The paper provides findings on distribution of artificial radionuclides in aggregate fractions of soils in radioactive fallout plumes near two Boreholes – 1301 and 1077 (the former ‘Balapan’ testing area), in which underground nuclear tests were conducted that differed in the nature of the real radiological situation. In the vicinity of Borehole 1301 in which an underground nuclear explosion was accompanied by the unforeseen release of debris into the atmosphere, the highest accumulation of 137Cs and 90Sr occurs in 250 to 1,000 µm fractions. Distribution of 241Am and 239+240Pu is characterized by two different tendencies – the predominant enrichment of 250 to 1,000 µm fractions in the near zone of the plume (up to 250 m) and predominantly enriched fractions of 5–8 µm and <1 µm in the distant plume area (700 to 2,500 m). Near Borehole 1077, near which the underground explosion is assumed to have been accompanied by escaping radioactive inert gases, 137Cs and 90Sr are mainly concentrated in less than 5 µm fractions, 241Am and 239+240Pu – in fractions of 8–40 µm and <1 µm.

Authors: Bedelbekova К. A. , Ozernoy A. N. , Vereshchak M. F. , Manakova I. A. , Degtyareva A. S.
Published: November 2024

In this paper the ion-induced structural-phase transformations in austenitic stainless steels 12Cr18Ni10Ti, AISI 316 and AISI 304 have been studied by the Mössbauer spectroscopy of conversion electrons, X-ray diffraction and scanning microscopy. It has been established, that the electronic structure of the Mössbauer atoms in stainless steels AISI 304 and AISI 316 are different. Consequently, molybdenum does not affect the short-range order of 57Fe in AISI 316 steel. Implantation of its own atoms (57Fe) in AISI 316 steel leads, as in case with AISI 304 and 12Cr18Ni10Ti steel, to martensitic transformations. Among three steels AISI 316 was found to be the most stable to the ion-induced structural phase transformations.
THE LINEAR ACCELERATORS REVIEW
Authors: Tulenbergenov T. R. , Sokolov I. A. , Miniyazov A. Zh. , Kayyrdy G. K. , Sitnikov A. A.
Published: November 2024

The stationary linear plasma simulators was reviewed, which are used to study the interaction between plasma and surface with regard to fusion facilities and modeling of their edge plasma. The interaction between plasma and surface is an important issue in creation of protective materials for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). The first wall and divertor are the key plasma faced components. The basic functions of the divertor are a heat flux absorption released from the edge plasma and helium removal, which is a combustion product in the thermonuclear synthesis reaction. Relatively small facilities with limited capacities as well as large linear simulators with a capacity of several dozen of kW and various diagnostic tools have been considered separately. Since the modern linear installations have a temperature and density of the generated plasma close to SOL plasma (scrap-off layer), it is possible to research the processes which directly affect materials of the components. This is a modification of surface during plasma irradiation or with charged particle beams. This includes atomization of a surface and studying of erosion, penetration of foreign particles into the surface or coating, surface relief modification, blister generation.

Published: November 2024

To determine the effect of Cr2N coating on the performance of rolling bearings, this article has studied the tribological and corrosion characteristics of thin-film coatings obtained by the MF method. The tribological characteristics of coatings were studied using the “ball on disk” scheme before and after Cr2N coatings were applied. As the counterbody was used a ball of SchCh15 (without coating). Analysis of cross-sections of wear tracks after testing indicates that there is virtually no wear after coating. The coated sample has a coefficient of friction of 0.14 0.17, i.e. it does not exceed the value of the coefficient of friction (<0.2) required for materials in dry friction pairs. The method of potentiometry was used to determine the corrosion of steel SchCh15 before and after applying a thin-film coating Cr2N.Corrosion tests were performed on a potentiostat-galvanostat P150, in a 4% solution of nitric acid (HNO3). The test results showed that after applying the Cr2N coating, the corrosion rate was 0.191 cm/year, i.e. half as much as that of uncoated steel SchCh15.

Published: November 2024

This study considers the possibility of using high-energy electrons (3.8 MeV, dose range of 46–200 kGy) for radiation-induced grafting of the polyethylene terephthalate ion-track membranes (PET ITMs) with the functional monomer of acrylic acid (AA). The effect of such factors as monomer concentration, dose, and average speed of the beam section of the accelerator conveyor was studied. The pristine and grafted samples of ion-track membranes were comprehensively studied by advanced physicochemical techniques. As a result of the studies, the optimal conditions for the radiation-induced grafting of PET ITMs with accelerated electrons were determined. A sufficiently high degree of grafting of AA while maintaining the mechanical strength of the polymer template were achieved for next conditions: the content of CuSO4 inhibitor is not more than 1%, the acrylic acid monomer concentration is not more than 10%, radiation dose in the range of 100–117 kGy.
STUDY OF RADIATION RESISTANCE TO PROTON PROCESSING OF NITRIDE CERAMICS
Authors: Kozlovskiy A. L.
Published: November 2024

The results of studying the processes of defect formation caused by irradiation with protons with an energy of 1.5 MeV and doses of 1×1015, 1×1016, 1×1017 ion/cm2 in ceramics based on aluminum nitride are presented. The choice of this type of ceramics is due to the possibility of using nuclear energy as a basis for structural materials. In the course of the studies, it was found that at irradiation doses of 1×1015–1×1016 ion/cm2 of ceramics showed a significant resistance of the crystal structure to defect formation, however, increasing the radiation dose to 1×1017 ion/cm2 leads to a significant increase in distortions of the crystal structure and its disordering due to the effect of accumulation of defects in structure.
RING-SHAPED SEISMICITY IN THE REGIONS OF THE EASTERN AEGEAN SEA AND WESTERN TURKEY: POSSIBLE PREPARATION FOR LARGE EARTHQUAKE TO THE SOUTH OF ISTANBUL
Authors: Kopnichev Yu. F. , Sokolova I. N.
Published: November 2024

We have been studying some seismicity characteristics in the regions of the eastern Aegean Sea and Western Turkey. We used a method based on identification of ring-shaped seismicity structures. It was established that shallow (h=0–33 km) ring-shaped structures with threshold magnitude values of Mt in the range of 3,8–4,5 have been formed during a few decades prior to five large earthquakes (Mw=6,4–7,6) that occurred in 1995–2017. The sizes of these structures were a few times less than for intracontinental earthquakes with mechanisms of strike-slip and normal faulting types that have corresponding magnitudes. Besides that, deep (h=34–70 km) seismicity strips were identified there. It was shown that epicenters of large earthquakes are often located near areas of crossing or the closest rapprochement of shallow rings and deep strips. Shallow ring-shaped structure (Mt=4,3) was identified in the area of the sea of Marmara, where no eventswith Мw≥7,0 occurred at least since 1900. Moreover, deep seismicity strips also were displayed here. We estimated magnitude of the large event, which can prepare in the area of the ring-shaped structure. The estimate is based on earlier obtained correlation dependences of seismicity ring parameters on energy of main earthquakes with mechanisms of strike-slip type: Mw=7,3±0,1. The formation of ring-shaped structures and deep seismicity strips is supposed to be connected with processes of geological systems self-organization, which result in deep-seated fluids migration.

Irradiation of samples for instrumental neutron activation analysis was carried out at the IVG.1M reactor. Post-analysis included gamma spectrometric measurements with different exposure times of samples from one day to one month, with the calculation of the concentration of the main and impurity elements by the relative INAA method. For comparison, rocks such as SG-4 and SGD were used as standardmaterials. An analysis of errors was performed during instrumental neutron activation analysis at the IVG.1M reactor. As a result of the research, the content of elements that can make the main contribution to the radiation situation in the premises during the operation and decommissioning of ITER are determined.
CONCEPTION FOR CREATION OF A BENCH COMPLEX TO TEST TRANSPORT PACKAGING SETS
Authors: Davydenko D. I. , Korovikov A. G. , Pospelov V. A.
Published: November 2024

Due to the absence in the Republic of Kazakhstan (RK) of an organization that tests transport packaging sets (TUK) in the course of work relating to management of radioactive waste (RW), spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and nuclear materials (NM), RK enterprises have troubles in obtaining permits for the use of TUK for various purposes. Currently, this issue is achieved in one of the following ways:

– certificates-permissions for TUK designs are issued abroad and after they are received on the territory of the country that issued the certificate, the validity of certificates-permissions is expanded over the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan;

– exemption of TUK from the requirements of regulatory legal acts (RLA). This solution is not always applicable, since it limits the amount of transported material (e.g., the mass of fissile material in one TUK is not more than 400 grams, provided that each individual package in the TUK contains maximum 15 grams of fissile NM) and is not applicable to all transported materials

The availability of the own test base for TUK will set free the Republic of Kazakhstan from the need for foreign assistance in TUK certification. The bench complex (laboratory) will provide conditions for closing the TUK production process in the Kazakhstan and will create competition in the world market for these services.

Az Agrártudás és Innovációs Rendszerek (angolul: Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems, továbbiakban: AKIS) az információ-, tudás- és innovációáramlást felelősek biztosítani az agrár- és élelmiszer-gazdaság szereplői, valamint az oktatásban, kutatásban, szaktanácsadásban tevékenykedők között. A szereplők közötti együttműködések és kölcsönhatások erősítése az Európai Unió közös agrárpolitikájának (továbbiakban: KAP) horizontális célkitűzésévé vált. A tagországi KAP stratégiai tervek két beavatkozáson keresztül kívánják fejleszteni az agrár- és élelmiszergazdaságot (Európai Innovációs Partnerség [EIP] operatív csoportok létrehozása, valamint tudásátadás és tanácsadás biztosítása). Ugyanakkor az AKIS túlmutat a KAP által nyújtott támogatásokon, hiszen számos további nemzeti hatáskörbe tartozó intézkedés és ösztönző szükséges egy modern, tudásalapú agrárgazdaság létrehozásához. Az egyes uniós tagországok saját AKIS-t alakítottak ki, a tagországok sajátos helyzetének, igényeinek megfelelően. Az AKIS tagországi összehasonlítására készült korábbi tanulmányok megkísérlik összegyűjteni, majd elemezni a tagországi sajátosságokat, alapvetően primer adatgyűjtésekkel. Ezek a tanulmányok a tagországok objektív, egységes módszertanra alapozott összehasonlítására kevésbé alkalmasak. Bár az innovációs teljesítmény mérésére számos indikátorrendszer elérhető, ezek a mutatórendszerek a nemzeti/regionális innováció teljesítményét mérik, és az agrárgazdaság innovációs teljesítményéről nem adnak megfelelő képet. A tanulmány célja egy olyan keretrendszer kialakítása, amely alkalmas arra, hogy az egyes uniós tagországok agrárgazdaságát támogató Agrártudás és Innovációs Rendszerek objektív módon összehasonlíthatóvá váljanak, ehhez a szerzők megalkották az AKIS-indexet.
A nemteljesítő hitelek vizsgálata a mezőgazdaságban

Published: November 2024

Az Európai Központi Bank 2024. január 12-én tette közzé a 2023. harmadik negyedévi jelentését a jelentős intézmények bankfelügyeleti statisztikáira vonatkozóan. A jelentés megállapítja, hogy a nemteljesítő hitelek (NPL) aránya stabil maradt, a harmadik negyedévében 2,27% volt. Magyarország tekintetében hasonló helyzetet mutat a Magyar Nemzeti Bank 2024. május 28-án megjelent Pénzügyi Stabilitási Jelentése, amely megállapítja, hogy a nemteljesítő hitelek aránya nemzetgazdasági szinten alacsony. A hazai ráta a vállalati szegmensben stagnált, így összességében a portfólióminőség továbbra is megfelelő. Az NPL-arány csökkenése 2020-ban megállt, majd trendváltást követően szintje enyhe ingadozás mellett stabilizálódást mutat. Jelen tanulmány kettős célt tűzött ki maga elé. Feltárni a mezőgazdasági inputanyag- és energiaárak elmúlt években tapasztalt növekedésének és az NPL alakulásának összefüggését, valamint rámutatni a változás hazai mezőgazdaságra gyakorolt hatásaira. A szerzők első hipotézise (H1) szerint az input- és energiaárak alakulása – a piaci és nem piaci intézkedések ellenére – szignifikáns kapcsolatot mutat az NPL alakulásával. Második hipotézisük (H2) szerint a hazai mezőgazdasági kkv-szektort, azon belül is a mikrovállalkozásokat terhelik leginkább az NPL-változást kiváltó hatások. A szerzők a megalapozottságot az első hipotézis esetében korrelációs vizsgálattal, a második esetében idősorok analitikus elemzésével vizsgálták. A kutatásban újszerű a felhasznált mikroadatbázis, amely lehetővé teszi a nemteljesítő hitelek hitel és vállalati szegmensek szerinti vizsgálatát. Korábban csak nemzetgazdasági szintű adatok álltak rendelkezésre. Az elvégzett vizsgálatok mindkét hipotézis megalapozottságát igazolták, így a szerzők az ezekből levonható eredmények és következtetések alapján arra matatnak rá, hogy – a hazai mezőgazdaság pénzügyi stabilitását befolyásoló tényezők további fokozott nyomon követése mellett – a komplex ágazati rezilianciaépítés folytatása a jövőben is kiemelten indokolt.
Nanoparticle-enhanced near-infrared fluorescence probes as a new frontier in cancer imaging
Authors: Michael Adeniyi
Published: November 2024

Recent advancements in nanotechnology have significantly enhanced the development of near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) probes, positioning them as powerful tools in cancer imaging. This paper explores the unique advantages of nanoparticles incorporating NIR dyes, such as indocyanine green (ICG) and DiR, which exhibit deep tissue penetration and minimal background autofluorescence. The enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect facilitates selective accumulation in tumor tissues, enabling sophisticated imaging and precision-targeted drug delivery systems. This review highlights the remarkable potential of NIRF imaging techniques in molecular diagnostics, emphasizing their ability to differentiate malignant tissues at a molecular level. Additionally, we discuss various NIRF dye classifications, including cyanine and BODIPY-based probes, along with the development of multifunctional agents that enhance imaging specificity and therapeutic effectiveness. The integration of advanced targeting capabilities, including the use of antibodies and small molecules, further improves the precision of these imaging agents. While challenges remain regarding the pharmacokinetics and potential toxicity of nanoparticle-based probes, their capacity for real-time tumor tracking and the promise of multimodal imaging approaches underscore their transformative role in cancer diagnostics and treatment. By advancing the field of theranostics, nanoparticle-enhanced NIRF probes pave the way for personalized medicine and improved patient outcomes in oncology.

Authors: Akinwale Omowumi Ishola  , Olusegun Gbenga Odunaiya  , Oluwatobi Timothy Soyombo
Published: November 2024

The implementation of community-based renewable energy projects demands effective stakeholder communication to ensure project sustainability, community acceptance, and overall success. This review proposes a strategic framework for communicating with diverse stakeholders, including local communities, government agencies, project developers, and non-governmental organizations. The framework emphasizes transparency, trust-building, and engagement as core principles to address the unique challenges and requirements of community-based renewable energy initiatives. Key components include identifying relevant stakeholders, establishing clear communication objectives, and selecting appropriate channels for tailored, ongoing dialogue. First, the framework outlines the identification process of key stakeholders, considering their roles, influence, and interests in the project. This involves categorizing stakeholders into primary (directly impacted) and secondary (indirectly impacted) groups, which enables targeted engagement efforts. Next, the framework recommends diverse communication channels, such as community meetings, social media platforms, local radio, and informational workshops. These channels are chosen based on accessibility, stakeholder preferences, and cultural appropriateness, ensuring messages reach all stakeholders effectively. The framework also includes strategic engagement tactics to enhance community participation, including participatory planning sessions, regular feedback loops, and transparent reporting on project milestones and impacts.

Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) arises from mesenchymal tissues and accounts for approximately 1% of adult malignancies. It is the most common type of malignant soft tissue sarcoma, primarily found in the extremities and retroperitoneum, but rarely presents in the gastrointestinal tract. Primary tumors of the mesentery are rare, though metastases to the mesentery from other anatomical sites are frequent. The standard of care of UPS involves surgical resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation, though these treatments are often only partially effective.

We report a case of high-grade UPS of the sigmoid colon with node positivity and local extension to the small bowel. The patient underwent an open en bloc resection of the sigmoid colon and small bowel, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation therapy, resulting in transient clinical improvement. However, the patient returned to the ER 12.5 weeks post-initial surgical resection with complaints of abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. An exploratory laparotomy revealed a new intra-abdominal mass, leading to a palliative resection. This case highlights the aggressive nature and poor prognosis of UPS, even with standard treatment. Ongoing clinical trials and emerging therapies are crucial for improving outcomes in UPS. Access to tumor profiling and precision therapies is essential for managing rare cancers like UPS. Further studies and clinical trials are imperative to develop more effective treatments and improve patient prognosis.

Neural Network-Based Models For Predicting Healthcare Needs In International Travel Coverage Plans
Authors: Reddy Danda Ramanakar
Published: November 2024

Safeguarding health from diseases during international travel is essential. International travel health insurance is a type of risk management that offers coverage for health issues, such as disease occurrences, to which travelers could be exposed at their destination. Offering proper international travel coverage plans during trip planning assists travelers in mitigating such health issues since a traveler can focus on the planned trip instead of worrying. This research developed and tested deep learning algorithms trained on large, vast dimensional, long historical periods, and near-real-time multi-feature healthcare data about the final destination of a traveler. In the past, medical experts utilized various algorithmic models based on traditional statistical analysis and simple classification and regression techniques for predicting travel health risk issues without giving much attention to deviations from randomness, accuracy, and overfitting of the selected models, which have subsequently been labeled as health-tuned risk prediction systems. Recently, data-driven classification and prediction algorithmic models are starting to more adaptively classify, compare, and predict travel health risk issues. This research contributes to the existing family of data-driven medical tourism research with in-depth data analytical experiments using state-of-the-art industry-discovered techniques adopted for classification and forecasting tasks.
