Road Injuries Leading Cause of Death Among Men Aged 10 to 39
Worldwide, road injuries are the leading cause of death among males aged 10–39. An international team of researchers reached this conclusion as part of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023, analysing data from 204 countries between 1990 and 2023. Their findings have been published in The Lancet Public Health, with HSE University Professor Vasily Vlassov listed among the collaborators.

Towards atomistic modelling of solid Pb-O formation and dissolution in liquid lead coolant: Interatomic potential development

Journal of Nuclear Materials. 2024. Vol. 594. Article 155016.
Khnkoian G. V., Nikolaev V. S., Stegailov V.

Microscopic description of solid Pb-O formation and dissolution in liquid lead coolant is important for the modelling of fast neutron reactors. For this purpose, in this work we develop interatomic potential models for lead melt with dissolved oxygen. Potentials fitting is based on \textit{ab initio} density functional theory (DFT) calculations and quantum molecular dynamics. Two different potential models are trained on the DFT data using the force-matching method: a computationally cheap embedded atom method (EAM) potential and a computationally expensive machine-learned moment tensor potential (MTP) that allows reproducing DFT data very accurately. The potentials are further validated to reproduce the properties of lead melt and the coordination of oxygen atoms in molten lead. The diffusion coefficient for oxygen in molten lead is calculated and compared with the available experimental data. We analyse how these interatomic potential models describe the crystal structure of the solid lead oxide to consider PbO nucleation and dissolution in molten lead. We extensively discuss the arising problems with the description of long-range electrostatic interactions. The possibility of matching the experimental data on the oxygen solubility limit by tuning the EAM potential is shown.
