Photon Propagation Around Compact Objects and the Inferred Properties of Thermally Emitting Neutron Stars [PDF]
, 2000 Anomalous X-ray pulsars, compact non-pulsing X-ray sources in supernova remnants, and X-ray bursters are three distinct types of sources for which there are viable models that attribute their X-ray emission to thermal emission from the surface of a ...

The missing links of neutron star evolution in the eROSITA all-sky X-ray survey [PDF]
, 2017 The observational manifestation of a neutron star is strongly connected with the properties of its magnetic field. During the star's lifetime, the field strength and its changes dominate the thermo-rotational evolution and the source phenomenology across

Development of new small-angle neutron scattering geometry with ring-shaped collimated beam for compact neutron source [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) is an important tool to investigate material properties in nanometer to micrometer scale. The opportunity to conduct SANS experiments is, however, limited because of the low number of available SANS beam lines ...

Some neutron and gamma radiation characteristics of plutonium cermet fuel for isotopic power sources [PDF]
, 1972 Gamma and neutron measurements on various types of plutonium sources are presented in order to show the effects of O-17, O-18 F-19, Pu-236, age of the fuel, and size of the source on the gamma and neutron spectra.
