Stony Brook Researchers Determine Structure of Levitated Molten Uranium Dioxide

Scientists at Stony Brook University have successfully made structure measurements of uranium dioxide (UO2) in molten form. Till now, molecular dynamics and physical property measurement models have existed for molten UO2, but as they had been parameterized from their properties in the solid-state, significant differences were observed in their melt structures. As the structure was not certain, the molten UO2 models showed varying characterizations of physical properties which are critical for the safety of a nuclear reactor.
