At TUNL, we have completed the design, fabrication and testing of three dual-fission chambers dedicated to 235U, 238U, and 239Pu.
The dual-fission chambers were used to make measurements of the fission product activity relative to the total fission rate, as well as for high-precision absolute fission yield measurements.
A hybrid fission-fusion reactor with a Dense Plasma Focus (DPF) as a fusion core and the dual layer fissionable blanket as the energy multiplier were conceptually designed.
"Advanced AI is a dual-use technology, like nuclear fission.
Consequently, it is presumed that in fission yeast cells, both dual-localization Apn1 and Uve1 engage in an Nth1-independent NIR, and 5′-blocked DNA ends generated in NIR reactions can be further processed through the LP BER pathway.
Apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) and mitochondrial fission factors such as dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1)/dynamin 1 (Dnm1) also play dual roles in cells [ 3- 6].
CtBP1/BARS belongs to a dual-function protein family that is known to be involved in both membrane fission and gene transcription (Chinnadurai, 2003; Corda et al, 2006).
Here we suggest that the observed neuroprotective effect of rapamycin is the result of a dual role: (1) stimulation of autophagy leading to damaged mitochondria removal and (2) enhancement of mitochondria fission to allow their elimination by mitophagy.
In this study, it is found that pressure sintering of the interconnected porosity in dual phases should be less effective than the reference model in order to match clad strain and fission gas release behavior.
Fission gases released from the fuel to the sweep gas are monitored in real time using dual cryogenic traps fitted with high purity germanium detectors.
Considering that the mitochondrial localizations of both Nth1 and Apn2 are unclear, the dual localization of its functional variant, Apn1, might significantly contribute to the AP lyase and NIR activities in fission yeast mitochondria.
