    Abstract: Apparatus and systems may operate to enable positron emission imaging with a unitary chamber body having an open end that defines a hollow interior portion shaped to completely contain a flexible sleeve that is used to cover a core sample when the sleeve is seated within the hollow interior portion. An end cap may be formed to engage the open end of the chamber body, which is configured to attenuate gamma rays approximately eight times less than stainless steel, while supporting a pressure differential of at least 3 MPa between the chamber inlet and the outlet when fluid carrying a radioactive tag to generate the gamma rays flows through the hollow interior portion and the core sample via the inlet and the outlet. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

    Abstract: An ion source for use in a particle accelerator includes at least one cathode. The at least one cathode has an array of nano-sized projections and an array of gates adjacent the array of nano-sized projections. The array of nano-sized projections and the array of gates have a first voltage difference such that an electric field in the cathode causes electrons to be emitted from the array of nano-sized projections and accelerated downstream. There is a ion source electrode downstream of the at least one cathode, and the at least one cathode and the ion source electrode have the same voltage applied such that the electrons enter the space encompassed by the ion source electrode, some of the electrons as they travel within the ion source electrode striking an ionizable gas to create ions.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining fluid mobility in rock samples using time-lapse position emission particle tracking (PEPT). The systems and methods use PEPT to determine permeability in rock samples, such as shale, that have a permeability of less than one micro-darcy by recording gamma-ray emissions from a tag using a positron emission tomography camera as the tag traverses with a fluid through the pores in the rock sample.

    Abstract: Techniques for identifying sweet spots in unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs are described. A rock sample is obtained from an unconventional hydrocarbon reservoir. The rock sample is evaluated using multiple rock sample evaluation techniques. A Young's modulus and a Poisson's ratio are determined for the rock sample. Geo-mechanical properties of the rock sample are determined based on results of evaluating the rock sample using the multiple rock sample evaluation techniques, the Young's modulus and the Poisson's ratio. One or more sweet spots for production in the unconventional hydrocarbon reservoir are identified based, in part, on the geo-mechanical properties of the rock sample
