NEUP CINR-23-28941: Multiple Uranium Complexes in Chloride Fast Reactor Molten Salt Properties

Multivalent transition metal ions in a melt can exhibit multiple coordination states that affect molten salt properties. This project will use a new high-energy resolution fluorescence detection (HERFD) spectroscopy to overcome issues associated with measuring coordination numbers of multiple complexes, along with Raman spectroscopy and advanced simulations to accurately predict properties of molten salts with multiple uranium complexes.
