A quantum detection device and eddy current detection method based on xenon atoms

PendingCN122330260AEddy currentParticle physics
This application relates to the field of quantum nondestructive testing technology, and discloses a quantum detection device and a xenon atom-based eddy current detection method. The quantum detection device includes an interconnected eddy current probe and a quantum measurement device. The quantum measurement device includes a xenon atom gas chamber for measuring the magnetic field strength of a target eddy current magnetic field. It acquires the target eddy current magnetic field of the target object, measures the magnetic field strength of the target eddy current magnetic field, and obtains the magnetic field strength distribution along the surface of the target object. Based on the magnetic field strength distribution, it detects thickness changes in the target object to obtain the weak point detection result. Its beneficial effect is that by measuring the eddy current magnetic field generated by the target object through a xenon atom gas chamber, it effectively utilizes the characteristics of xenon atoms—long coherence time and extremely low resonance frequency—thereby maintaining high sensitivity to capture weak magnetic fields at extremely low frequencies and obtaining a detection penetration depth far exceeding that of traditional sensors, achieving high-precision nondestructive testing of minute thickness differences inside the target object.

Dual-mode propulsion system of xenon working propellant electric propulsion and cold gas propulsion

This invention provides a dual-mode propulsion system in the field of space propulsion technology, combining xenon propellant electric propulsion and cold gas propulsion. The system comprises a gas storage module and a pressure regulation module connected in series, with an electric propulsion module and a cold gas propulsion module connected in parallel downstream. These modules are controlled by a control and power module, which is shared by both electric and cold gas propulsion. Its advantages include solving the problem of insufficient control torque compared to a single electric propulsion system. Furthermore, because xenon is used as the working propellant, the xenon required for cold gas propulsion and electric propulsion serves as a backup for each other, resulting in high system integration. This meets the stringent limitations of satellite propulsion system size and control resources. Compared to an independent cold gas propulsion system, it achieves stable adjustment of the cold gas thruster's thrust over a wide range. Additionally, the system employs isentropic expansion decompression, reducing energy loss during decompression and lowering the power consumption required for temperature control.

The helium-xenon cooled reactor includes a reactor core and a retractable reflector layer. The retractable reflector layer includes multiple retractable reflector blocks, which are disposed on the outer side of the reactor core along the axial direction. At least one retractable reflector block can move along the axial direction of the reactor core to change the reflection effect of the retractable reflector layer. This application uses a retractable reflector layer that can move along the axial direction of the reactor core. On the one hand, this reduces the relatively complex control drum and its driving mechanism, saving manufacturing costs and space. On the other hand, the relatively compact and convenient retractable design makes control simple and convenient, avoiding potential faults such as drum falling off or jamming. The control method is safer and more efficient, and it is more beneficial for optimizing and improving the differential value of the reflector layer.

Liquid xenon-powered nuclear voltaic system utilizing radioactive isotopes

PendingUS20260204449A1ConvertersPhoton capture
A nuclear voltaic power source utilizing liquid xenon as a high-density scintillation transducer medium combined with radioisotopes for electrical power generation. Liquid xenon, maintained at cryogenic temperatures between −111.75 and −108.1 degrees Celsius, has a density of approximately 2942 kg / m3, providing roughly 545 times the radiation interaction density of gaseous xenon. Ionizing radiation from the radioisotope interacts with liquid xenon to form Xe2 excimers that emit VUV photons at approximately 175 nm with a yield of 46 photons / keV. These photons are absorbed by wide bandgap semiconductor converters (diamond, AlN, SiC, GaN) lining the containment structure, generating electron-hole pairs extracted as electrical current. The spherical containment geometry maximizes photon capture. Cryogenic thermal management using vacuum-jacketed insulation or active cooling maintains the liquid phase. Multiple cells may be connected in series-parallel arrays for scalable power output.
