Effects of ground movements on realistic guide models for the European Spallation Source

open access: yesPhysical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2020
We model the effect of ground movement, based on empirical experience, on the transport properties of long neutron guides by ray-tracing simulations. For a simple model, our results reproduce the large losses found by an earlier study, while for a more ...

Neutron Imaging Study of Evolution of Structural and Transport Properties of Cement-Clay Interfaces

open access: yes, 2019
In many designs for radioactive waste repositories, cement and clay will come into direct contact. The geochemical contrast between cement and clay will lead to mass fluxes across the interface, which consequently results in alteration of structural and ...

Optimisation of moderator and neutron guide design for prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) using MCNP5 simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The performance of prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) setup depends on thermal neutron flux available at the sample. Neutrons available in most reactors consist of thermal, epithermal and fast neutrons with varying ratios. As such for PGNAA

Sobolev Regularity in Neutron Transport Theory [PDF]

open access: yesISRN Mathematical Analysis, 2012
The main purpose of this paper is to extend the W1,p regularity results in neutron transport theory, with respect to the Lebesgue measure due to Mokhtar-Kharroubi, (1991), and to abstract measures covering, in particular, the continuous models or multigroup models.

Anomalous hydrodynamics kicks neutron stars

open access: yes, 2016
Observations show that, at the beginning of their existence, neutron stars are accelerated briskly to velocities of up to a thousand kilometers per second.

Positivity of the difference neutron transport operator

open access: yes
In the present study, a two-dimensional difference neutron transport operator is considered. The resolvent equation for this neutron transport operator is constructed. The positivity of this difference neutron transport operator in (Formula presented) is

Development of a reliable estimation procedure of radioactivity inventory in a BWR plant due to neutron irradiation for decommissioning

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Reliable information of radioactivity inventory resulted from the radiological characterization is important in order to plan decommissioning planning and is also crucial in order to promote decommissioning in effectiveness and in safe.

Convergence of a discontinuous Galerkin scheme for the neutron transport

open access: yes, 2001
We study the spatial discretization for the numerical solution of a model problem for the neutron transport equation in an infinite cylindrical domain. Based on using an interpolation technique in the discontinuous Galerkin finite element procedure, and ...

Neutron Deep Penetration Calculations in Light Water with Monte Carlo TRIPOLI-4® Variance Reduction Techniques

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Nuclear decommissioning takes place in several stages due to the radioactivity in the reactor structure materials. A good estimation of the neutron activation products distributed in the reactor structure materials impacts obviously on the ...
