A method for frequency conversion in a single-longitudinal-mode linear resonator includes frequency converting intracavity laser radiation in a nonlinear crystal disposed in a linear resonator. The intracavity laser radiation is in a single longitudinal mode of the resonator and forms a standing wave between its end-mirrors. The method also includes repeatedly sweeping the standing wave back and forth, along an optical axis of the resonator, relative to the nonlinear crystal. This repeated sweeping may be achieved by dithering the longitudinal position of (a) one or both of the end-mirrors or (b) the nonlinear crystal. Dithering of a single end-mirror may be driven by modulating a reference wavelength to which the wavelength of the intracavity laser radiation is locked. Dithering of the longitudinal position of the nonlinear crystal may be achieved with a piezoelectric actuator arranged to adjust angles of a parallelogram-shaped flexure to which the nonlinear crystal is mounted.

Systems and methods for producing acid deficient uranyl nitrate from a dilute uranyl nitrate solution are disclosed. In one form, the present disclosure provides a system comprising a feed evaporation system and a diffusion dialysis system. The feed evaporation system is configured to receive a feed stream and to boil off water, under vacuum, from the feed stream to produce a concentrated uranyl nitrate solution and a distilled water product. The diffusion dialysis system is configured to counter flow the concentrated uranyl nitrate solution and the distilled water product across a plurality of membrane vessels to promote nitrate migration from the concentrated uranyl nitrate solution to the distilled water, and to produce a dialysate stream and a recycle acid stream. The feed stream may include a product of a solvent extraction process used to recycle spent nuclear fuel and/or a recovery stream from other fuel fabrication activities.

Systems and methods for accelerated online adaptive radiation therapy (“ART”) are described. The improvements to online ART are generally provided based on the use of textural analysis and machine learning algorithms implemented with a hardware processor and a memory. The described systems and methods enable more efficient and accurate online adaptive replanning (“OLAR”), which can also be implemented in clinically acceptable timeframes. For example, OLAR can be reduced from taking 10-30 minutes down to 5-10 minutes.
