Neutron-neutron and neutron-photon correlations withFREYA [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 For many years, the state of the art for modeling fission in radiation transport codes has involved sampling from average distributions. However, in a true fission event, the energies, momenta and multiplicities of emitted particles are correlated. The FREYA (Fission Reaction Event Yield Algorithm) code generates complete fission events. Event-by-event

Development of Gd-Si-O dispersed 316L stainless steel for improving neutron shielding performance
Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2020 The low solubility of gadolinium (Gd) limits its application in iron-based neutron shielding alloys. In this study, a high content of Gd up to 7.87 wt.% was added into 316L stainless steel by mechanical alloying (MA) of Gd2O3 with 316L powder. Neutronics

Neutron lifetime puzzle and neutron–mirror neutron oscillation [PDF]
The European Physical Journal C, 2019 The discrepancy between the neutron lifetimes measured in the beam and trap experiments can be explained via the neutron $n$ conversion into mirror neutron $n'$, its dark partner from parallel mirror sector, provided that $n$ and $n'$ have a tiny mass splitting order $10^{-7}$ eV.

Measurement and Analysis of Neutron Leakage Spectra from Pb and LBE Cylinders with D-T Neutrons
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 For validating the current evaluated neutron data libraries, neutron leakage spectra from lead and lead bismuth eutectic (LBE) cylinders have been measured using an intense D-T pulsed neutron source with time-of-flight (TOF) method by Institute of ...

Modern Physics Letters A, 2012 The neutron is largely spherical and incompressible in atomic nuclei. These two properties are however challenged in the extreme pressure environment of a neutron star. Our variational computation within the Cornell model of Coulomb gauge QCD shows that the neutron (and also the Δ3/2 baryon) can adopt cubic symmetry at an energy cost of about 150 MeV.
