Fig. 4: Comparison of the experimental and computational thermal expansion of UN.
From: Thermal expansion and degradation of uranium mononitride under high-temperature oxidative conditions
a Calculated unit cell parameters of pure UN (red) as well as UN with ON (blue) as calculated from the ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, compared to experimental data (black). The shaded area indicates error bars corresponding to one standard deviation of the time-averaged values. b Projected thermal expansion calculated from experimental and computational data.
