Neutron features at the UPM neutronics hall [PDF]
Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 2012 The neutronics hall of the Nuclear Engineering Department at the Polytechnical University of Madrid has been characterized. The neutron spectra and the ambient dose equivalent produced by an (241)AmBe source were measured at various source-to-detector distances on the new bench.

Neutron-mirror neutron mixing and neutron stars [PDF]
The European Physical Journal C, 2021 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 $$n-n'$$

Towards automatic CAD defeaturing for fusion neutronics
A typical neutronics simulation process may involve the conversion of a detailed CAD model into a modified analysis model. This conversion process almost always requires prior defeaturing or modification of the detailed model’s geometry, whether it is ...

Neutron–Mirror-Neutron Oscillation and Neutron Star Cooling
Physical Review Letters, 2022 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]
Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2019 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 ...
