The significance of such expressions can be understood if we consider that they offer the opportunity for testing general relativity in a way that is independent of the nuclear equation of state and they also allow us to impose constraints on the structure of neutron stars. The aim of this work is twofold. Firstly, we wish to clarify if hot equations of state are able to reproduce established universal relations. Secondly, we investigate a possible universal connection between the binding energy and the dimensionless tidal deformability of a neutron star. These two bulk properties are associated with two very important candidates for multimessenger signals, binary neutron star mergers and supernova explosions. We find that the predictions of hot equations of state do not agree with the predictions from accepted universal relations. Subsequently,  the use of universal relations, when thermal effects are present, may be erroneous. Additionally, we find that, for moderate neutron star masses, the binding energy and the dimensionless tidal deformability of a neutron star satisfy a universal relation. The latter allows us to impose constraints on the binding energy of 1.4 Msun neutron star, using information from the analysis of the GW170817 event. Finally, we are able to present a universal relation between the compactness, the binding energy and the dimensionless tidal deformability, which is independent of the employed equation of state for zero and finite temperature.","PeriodicalId":262803,"journal":{"name":"HNPS Advances in Nuclear Physics","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134623972","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CdZnTe semiconductor detectors have never been used before for such applications. More specifically, a spectrometer with a 4 cm3 CZT crystal was studied under various scenarios, by means of Monte Carlo simulations and lab measurements. Using the Monte Carlo code MCNP5, the effect of the water’s salinity on the detector’s efficiency, as well as the ability of the sensor to localize radioactive sources in the water were examined. Futhermore, the full energy peak efficiency curve and energy resolution of the spectrometer was calculated experimentally in air. Finally, the effective volume of the CdZnTe crystal was estimated through measurements using a collimated point source of 137Cs. First results are considered satisfactory, however additional scenarios should be examined in the near future to further characterize the response of the detector.   ","PeriodicalId":262803,"journal":{"name":"HNPS Advances in Nuclear Physics","volume":"76 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132512240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, and first of all, a concise understanding of the current Greek energy mix and its perspectives is essential in connection to the potential problems due to the expansion of renewable energy. Present and future inefficiencies could be avoided to a manageable extend, mainly by energy savings, mostly applicable for buildings consumption and also by upgrades towards a much denser grid, capable of reversing flows, along with energy storage facilities. In parallel, an assessment of the introduction potential of nuclear power could be examined. The assessment could involve political parties, scientists and other stakeholders, pro and against, and might reasonably result to justified arguments capable of raising public awareness. The country's preparedness to go nuclear could depend more or less on the degree of local energy market regulation framework, on the local and broader investment and financial environment, on the power plant construction and operation insurance possibilities, on the review and introduction of applicable law for licensing and regulating nuclear power and on the local scientific potential in the nuclear engineering field. Parameters like construction of related major engineering parts locally should also be examined along with compensatory benefits to the domestic economy and the local societies in the vicinity of the reactor sites. It is proposed that this work could be accomplished by an adequate task force without particular costs and within reasonable time.","PeriodicalId":262803,"journal":{"name":"HNPS Advances in Nuclear Physics","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114887229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The constrained molecular dynamics approach is used to simulate low energy collisions of extremely n-rich nuclei. A new type of the fusion barrier due to a “neutron wind” is observed when the effect of neutron star environment (screening of Coulomb interaction) is introduced implicitly. When introducing also a background of surrounding nuclei, the nuclear fusion becomes possible down to temperatures of 108 K and synthesis of extremely heavy and n-rich nuclei appears feasible. A possible existence of hyper-heavy nuclei in a neutron star environment could provide a mechanism of extra coherent neutrino scattering or an additional mechanism, resulting in x-ray burst or a gravitational wave signal and, thus, becoming another crucial process adding new information to the suggested models on neutron star evolution.

Τhe upgraded patch of MCNP code MCNP–CP and the 2018 version of PENELOPE, which take into account the decay scheme of each cascade emitter, are used to calculate the Full Energy Peak Efficiency (FEPE) for the corresponding gamma-ray energies. The true coincidence correction (TCC) factor is calculated as the ratio of the FEPE derived for each nuclide taking into consideration the true coincidence effect, to the FEPE estimated without considering the phenomenon. In all cases, a satisfactory agreement is observed between the TCC factors calculated using MCNP–CP and PENELOPE 2018. Moreover, the results of the calculations are compared against experimentally derived efficiency values. The correction factors obtained using the TrueCoinc software are applied on experimentally determined FEPE curves, based on measurements performed using reference sources, and consequently the corrected data are compared against the simulations for the \"non-coincidence\" case.

Extensive high pressure/low temperature (HP/LT) schists associated with a 24 Ma metamorphic age, and with cooling ages ranging between 6-14 Ma (based on fission-track and (U-Th)/He thermochronometry), encompass sizable quartzite outcrops associated with substantially low radiation (U, Th, K concentrations below the analytical detection limits), allowing TL signal to grow on longer geological timescales. Although deeper TL traps (>360°C) appeared saturated as expected, geologically stable traps lying between around 360°C were found to be far from saturation. Once higher analytical resolution is achieved in the determination of the radioelement concentrations the recovered equivalent doses will be combined with the respective dose rates to explore the suitability of TL from quartz for longer-range thermochronometry in extremely low-radiation geological environments.","PeriodicalId":262803,"journal":{"name":"HNPS Advances in Nuclear Physics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129535555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
