Phase Stability in U-6Nb Alloy Doped with Ti from the First Principles Theory

First-principles calculations within the density-functional-theory (DFT) approach are conducted in order to explore and explain the effect of small amounts of titanium on phase stability in the U-6Nb alloy. During rapid quenching from high to room temperature, metastable phases α′ (orthorhombic), α″...
