We discuss the manifold difficulties in cross-platform software deployment. We first consider a pure C++ project. [...]

Multi-camera systems are being used more and more frequently, from autonomous mobile robots to intelligentvisual servoing cells. Determining the pose of the cameras to each other very accurately is essential for manyapplications. [...]

Tri-layer neutron waveguides with external magnetic layers are considered. In such waveguides it is possible to control the coefficient of enhancement of neutron density by switching the external layers magnetization by the applied magnetic field. [...]

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is considering replacing its existing reactor, known as NBSR, with a cutting-edge test reactor. This new test reactor, the NIST Neutron Source (NNS), is currently in the conceptualization phase. [...]

Analyzing Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis (PGAA) spectra poses significant challenges, particularly in Traditional expert analysis, while effective, is time-consuming. This paper addresses the need for an efficient, automated solution to enhance the analysis process. [...]

A detector based on Timepix3 readout of image- intensified light from a scintillator has been applied and tested in neutron reflectometry for the first time. The detector has been characterized at a monochromatic beamline with λ = 4.2A ̊ at HFIR reactor at ORNL. [...]

Mini-size fuel plates with monolithic U-10Mo and Zr coating applied by PVD were successfully irradiated and showed stable and predictable swelling behavior in the EMPIrE test. As a next step, the FUTURE-MONO-1 irradiation test is designed to demonstrate this fuel’s performance in full-size geometry and thus qualify it generically for the conversion of European research reactors to low-enriched uranium fuel.As part of this scale-up, Framatome-CERCA demonstrated their capabilities for U-Mo full-size foil fabrication by rolling and laser-cutting, while TUM’s pilot PVD device is able to coat the full-size LEU foils produced this way with a Zr diffusion barrier. [...]

The HFIR, RHF, and FRM II reactors represent a particular class of Research and Test Reactors that provide some of the most intense and continuous neutron fluxes for science, industry, and medical applications. These high-performance reactors have achieved compact cores by operating with Highly Enriched Uranium fuel (HEU, 235U/U ≥ 20 wt. [...]
