Neutron-mirror neutron mixing and neutron stars [PDF]
AbstractThe oscillation of neutron n into mirror neutron $$n'$$ n ′ , its mass degenerate partner from dark mirror sector, can gradually transform the neutron stars into the mixed stars consisting in part of mirror dark matter. In quark stars $$n-n'$$

Neutron–Mirror-Neutron Oscillation and Neutron Star Cooling
It was pointed out in a recent paper that the observed cooling rate of old, cold neutron stars (NS) can provide an upper limit on the transition rate of neutron to mirror neutron ($n-n'$). This limit is so stringent that it would preclude any discovery of $n \to n'$ oscillation in the current round of terrestrial searches for the process.

Verification and application of SuperMC3.3 to lead-bismuth-cooled fast reactor [PDF]
Lead-cooled fast reactors have multilayered designs and large internal temperature differences, which cause challenges in simulating reactor physics. SuperMC, a large-scale integrated software system for neutronics design, is inherently able to address ...

Specifications for a coupled neutronics thermal-hydraulics SFR test case [PDF]
Coupling neutronics/thermal-hydraulics calculations for the design of nuclear reactors is a growing trend in the scientific community. This approach allows to properly represent the mutual feedbacks between the neutronic distribution and the thermal ...

Core design optimization for a novel heavy water moderated molten salt reactor
BackgroundHeavy water moderated molten salt reactor (HWMSR) adopts heavy water as moderator and heavy metal elements dissolved in fluoride salt as the fuel, which has high neutron economy. But large temperature difference of fuel salt outlet will lead to
