NEUTRON-GAMMA FLUX AND DOSE CALCULATIONS IN A PRESSURIZED WATER REACTOR (PWR)

The present work deals with Monte Carlo simulations, aiming to determine the neutron and gamma responses outside the vessel and in the basemat of a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR).The model is based on the Tihange-I Belgian nuclear reactor.With a large set of blunt wraps information and measurements available, this reactor has the advantage to be e

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a serious cardiovascular illness, for which an elevated uric acid (UA) level presents as a considerable risk factor.This can be treated with UA-lowering drugs such as allopurinol and benzbromarone, which can reduce UA levels by the inhibition of UA production or by promoting its excretion.Such drugs can also be benef
