Variability of methane fluxes at the Ebro Delta due to rice field: comparison between inventories and Radon Tracer Method based results.
(2023)
Conference report
Open AccessThe Ebro River Delta, in the northwestern Mediterranean basin, has an extension of 320 km2 and is mainly covered by rice fields. Rice fields are known to be one of the main sources of anthropogenic methane emissions, and ... -
Scaling Effect in an intermediate Break LOCA scenario
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyScaling studies in the field of nuclear thermalhydraulics have been carried out to analyze and extrapolate phenomenology from Integral Test Facilities (ITFs) to operating full size Nuclear Power Plants (NPP). The Power-to-Volume ... -
The Equivalency of Theoretical and Monte Carlo Approaches in Neutron Transport: the case of simplified slowing-down
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyFor purposes of engineering education, computer experiments or simulations are powerful tools to demonstrate and emphasize physical concepts instead of relying on complex and ambiguous mathematics. The main advantage of ... -
Atomistic simulations and theoretical predictions of helium nucleation in liquid Pb-Li eutectic alloy
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyLiquid Lead-Lithium Eutectic (LLE) alloy is a promising candidate coolant and/or breeder to attain tritium self-sufficiency in the EU DEMO breeding blanket design. Liquid metals are characterized with excellent heat-transport ... -

First estimation of CH4fluxes using the222Rn Tracer Method over the central Iberian Peninsula
(WIT Press, 2014)
Conference report
Open AccessEmissions of CH4 over the central Iberian Peninsula have been estimated experimentally for the first time using the Radon Tracer Method (RTM), which uses the atmospheric noble radioactive gas 222Rn as an auxiliary tracer. ... -

Unmanned aircraft based gamma spectrometry system for radiological surveillance
(2020)
Conference lecture
Open AccessIn the framework of the European “Preparedness” project, PTB is developing a spectrometer based dosimetric system that can be operated while being attached to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Built around 1.5" CeBr3 ... -
Cadmium zinc telluride solid-state detector characterization for its use as a spectro-dosemeter
(2019)
Conference report
Open AccessConcerning ionising radiation monitoring in the environment in areas which, by normal means, are inaccessible, e.g. in contaminated areas after a nuclear or radiological incident, the use of highly mobile systems, comprising ... -
Hacia la monitorización dinámica del inventario de tritio en los sistemas auxiliares de un reactor de fusión
(2019)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyLa sostenibilidad de la fusión nuclear depende, entre otros condicionantes, de la capacidad de regeneración de tritio. Los requisitos de protección radiológica imponen severas limitaciones a las emisiones ambientales de ... -
Validation of a BEPU methodology through a blind benchmark activity at the PKL test facility
(American Nuclear Society (ANS), 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyValidation is a key step in the field of thermal hydraulics and has played a crucial role in the implementation of system codes. These codes are then included in licensing methodologies being those either best estimate ... -
