In the context of a nuclear power reactor operation, decay heat is a thermal power
which continues to be generated after shut down. This is due to the radioactive decay of
fission products, minor actinides, and delayed fission of fissile nuclide. Hence, a proper
characterization of decay heat and is essential for reactor safety system design, spent
fuel transportation, and repository...
Understanding dense matter presents a big challenge at the actual time. On one hand QCD, the fundamental interaction of nuclear matter is known to be non-perturbative at such low energy regimes, and on the other hand relying on numerical approaches to solve QCD, also known as lattice QCD, is blocked by what is known as the "sign problem".
Thus effective nuclear modeling may be employed to...
