Bright Monocompound Metal Halide Scintillator for Fast Neutron Radiography
Metal halide scintillator, tetraphenylphosphonium manganese bromide (TPP2MnBr4), provides a significant benefit for fast neutron imaging. A fourfold increase in efficiency over traditional zinc sulfide screens is achieved by efficiently utilizing neutron interactions within its homogeneous structure.

Abstract The production, attenuation, and absorption of secondary cosmic rays (SCR) are influenced by atmospheric parameters such as air pressure and temperature. To reliably correlate SCR flux measurements with atmospheric ionization driven by energetic particle precipitation, these dependencies must be quantified.

Evaluation of positioning and density profiling accuracy of muon radiography by utilizing a 15-ton steel block [PDF]
A model experiment was performed in order to evaluate the spatial resolution and the accuracy of determining the density by utilizing a steel block. The steel block (7.8 g cm−3) is 5 m thick along the muon trajectories and weighs about 15 t. By comparing

Abstract We use neutron radiography to provide high‐resolution images of water distribution patterns inside the pore space of a uniformly packed sand in a flow cell, during drainage, induced by a sequence of suction tensions. The experiments reveal the emergence of heterogeneous water distribution patterns within the pore space of the sand, although ...

Analytical Model for Estimating the Zenith Angle Dependence of Terrestrial Cosmic Ray Fluxes. [PDF]
A new model called "PHITS-based Analytical Radiation Model in the Atmosphere (PARMA) version 4.0" was developed to facilitate instantaneous estimation of not only omnidirectional but also angular differential energy spectra of cosmic ray fluxes anywhere ...

Branched Conduit Structure Beneath the Active Craters of Sakurajima Volcano Inferred From Muography
Abstract Observing in‐conduit physical mechanism underlying the switching of eruptive activity between the craters of multi‐vent volcanoes could contribute to hazard assessment at these complex volcanic edifices. We performed monitoring of mass density changes beneath two active craters of Sakurajima volcano in Kyushu, Japan between September 2018 and ...
