“…Experimental studies of uraniaceria solid solutions can be broadly divided into two classes. The first is focused on equilibrium thermophysical properties, and include measurements of phase equilibria, [1][2][3] partial molar enthalpies and free energies of oxidation, [4][5][6] and heat capacities. 7,8 The second is focused on the characterization of the atomic and electronic structure of urania-ceria solid solutions, and include measurements of magnetic susceptibilities, [9][10][11] electron paramagnetic resonance, 12 extended X-ray adsorption fine-structure spectroscopy, 13,14 X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) 15 and X-ray adsorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES).…”
