Atomistic Simulation of High-Density Uranium Fuels
Figure 7
Equilibrium state of the computational cell at K for (from left to right) 3, 5, and 7 wt% Si and for 4, 7, and 10 wt% Mo. Al, Si, U, and Mo atoms are denoted with yellow, red, blue, and grey circles, respectively. The simulations show that the Si stopping power is due to the interplay between Si and Mo and not only to Si additions. The original location of the interface (at the onset of the simulation) corresponds to the middle of each figure.
