Spectral analysis of integrated F-center feedback dosimeter

Schumaker, Daniel(Daniel C.) (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)

Proton therapy has yet to implement an in-vivo, real-time, fault-tolerant integral dosimeter. Proposed in this thesis is a conceptual dosimeter to meet such requirements, relying on the radiation-stimulated production of ...
Three-dimensional magnetic domain imaging with polarized neutrons

Delmore, Alexandra R (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)

Application and fundamental understanding of magnetic materials requires knowledge of their properties and phase diagrams, which depend on the structure and dynamics of magnetic domains. Current techniques for studying ...
Induction heating of firebricks for the large-scale storage of nuclear and renewable energy

Ibekwe, Richard T (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)

The lack of low-cost, large-scale energy storage is one of the biggest obstacles to the ongoing transition from an energy market dominated by fossil fuels to one dominated by nuclear and renewable energy. Storing energy ...
