Hao Li, Xinqi Zheng, Hui Wu, Juping Xu, Yawei Gao, Dingsong Wang, Jiawang Xu, Shanshan Zhen, Jiahao Gao, Yang Pan, Guyue Wang, Jingyan Zhang, He Huang, Yanfei Wu, Wen Yin, Shouguo Wang, Baogen Shen
PrGa compound was extensively studied due to its unique magnetic structure and magnetocaloric effect (MCE). In this study, the effect of Ge substitution for Ga atoms on the magnetic properties and MCE of the resulting Pr(Ga,Ge) compounds was systematically

Measurement of Chloride in Concrete by Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation

September 1, 2024
Author(s)
Richard A. Livingston, Preethi Sridhar, Neal Berke, Amde M. Amde, Heather H. Chen-Mayer
Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis (PGAA) is an elemental analysis method based on radiative neutron capture that is isotope-specific and has a high sensitivity to chlorine (Cl). To evaluate the feasibility of replacing the conventional wet chemistry method

Calibration of Autler-Townes based electrometry in Rydberg states of alkali atoms
