Measurement of fluence at the D-line fast neutron facility at iThemba LABS [PDF]
Measurements of fluence were made for the neutron beams produced at the fast neutron beam facility of iThemba LABS, using an NE213 organic liquid scintillator detector and a 238U fission ionisation chamber.

Development of cryogenic hydrogen gas target and estimation of background for a measurement of neutron inelastic scattering in 12C [PDF]
The triple-alpha reaction is a key process in nucleosynthesis, and its reaction rate can be enhanced by neutron induced deexcitation instead of by radiative decay.

The neutron production rate measurement of an indigenously developed compact D-D neutron generator [PDF]
One electrostatic accelerator based compact neutron generator was developed. The deuterium ions generated by the ion source were accelerated by one accelerating gap after the extraction from the ion source and bombarded to a target.
