Cooper --> <p>We are please to announce a <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/0953-8984/26/49/495401">new publication</a> in collaboration with <a href="http://www.ansto.gov.au/">ANSTO</a> on the effect of radiation damage on the thermal conductivity of UO₂ using our recently developed <a href="http://abulafia.mt.ic.ac.uk/potentials/actinides">many-body actinide oxide potential</a>.</p> <p>A comparison of the damage profile predicted by the many-body potential is made against previous potential models. A significant degradation in thermal conductivity is then predicted as a consequence. The conductivity of amorphous UO₂ is also calculated.</p> <ul> <li> M.J.
