Gravitoastronomy with neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Recent advances in gravitational wave detectors mean that we can start to make astrophysically important statements about the physics of neutron stars based on observed upper limits to their gravitational luminosity.

Neutron stars velocities and magnetic fields

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
We study a model that explain neutron stars velocities due to the anisotropic emission of neutrinos. Strong magnetic fields present in neutron stars are the source of the anisotropy in the system.

On the spectrum of moderated neutrons emitted by the isotropic source in the gas fuel

open access: yesЯдерна фізика та енергетика, 2016
Analytical formula for the equation of the neutron scattering for isotropic neutron source, which includes the temperature of the moderating medium as the parameter, was first obtained in the given work in the framework of gas model of the medium.

The Effect of Neutron Fluence at High Temperatures on Strength Nuclear Graphite: Based on Elasticity [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
The main structural component and moderator in a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) is nuclear graphite. The long-term performance of these components is greatly influenced by exposure to high neutron fluence at operational temperatures above 600°

Radiation damage in the LHCb vertex locator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The LHCb Vertex Locator (VELO) is a silicon strip detector designed to reconstruct charged particle trajectories and vertices produced at the LHCb interaction region. During the first two years of data collection, the 84 VELO sensors have been exposed to

Effect of Neutron Fluence Rate on Irradiation Embrittlement of Low-copper RPV Steel

open access: yesYuanzineng kexue jishu
The reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) of pressurized water reactor (PWR) nuclear power plants currently in operation and under construction in China are all made of low-alloy ferritic steels obtained by quenching and tempering treatments (which meet the ...

Cooling rates of neutron stars and the young neutron star in the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant

open access: yes, 2010
We explore the thermal state of the neutron star in the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant using the recent result of Ho & Heinke that the thermal radiation of this star is well described by a carbon atmosphere model and the emission comes from the ...

Measurement of fluence at the D-line fast neutron facility at iThemba LABS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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.

Impact of fuel temperature on nuclear core design calculations

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology
The operation of a nuclear power plant relies on precalculated nuclear design predictions based on core calculations of various reactor states. The fuel temperature is a crucial factor in determining the reactor fuel behavior, but assessing the ...
