· JVASP-123543· U3Xe

U3Xe is an experimental uranium-xenon ceramic compound that represents a rare intermetallic or ionic ceramic phase in the uranium-noble gas system. This material exists primarily in research contexts and nuclear materials science, where it has been studied for fundamental understanding of uranium chemistry and potential applications in advanced nuclear fuel forms or xenon immobilization technologies. As a uranium-bearing ceramic, U3Xe is notable for combining a dense actinide matrix with a volatile noble gas, making it relevant to nuclear waste management and closed-cycle fuel studies where xenon capture and stabilization are engineering challenges.
