Investigations of fast neutron production by 190 GeV/c muon interactions on different targets [PDF]
The production of fast neutrons (1 MeV - 1 GeV) in high energy muon-nucleus interactions is poorly understood, yet it is fundamental to the understanding of the background in many underground experiments. The aim of the present experiment (CERN NA55) was

Measurement by FIB on the ISS: Two Emissions of Solar Neutrons Detected? [PDF]
A new type of solar neutron detector (FIB) was launched onboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour on July 16, 2009, and it began collecting data at the International Space Station (ISS) on August 25, 2009.

Neutron lifetime puzzle and neutron–mirror neutron oscillation [PDF]
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.

Neutron dose evaluation in conventional and FLASH proton therapy
Cancer is the second leading cause of death for children and one of the treatment options for this disease is radiotherapy. Children treated with radiotherapy using photon beams are more likely to develop secondary neoplasms.

The neutron 'thunder' accompanying the extensive air shower [PDF]
Simulations show that neutrons are the most abundant component among extensive air shower hadrons. However, multiple neutrons which appear with long delays in neutron monitors nearby the EAS core ('neutron thunder') are mostly not the neutrons of the ...

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.

Testing lorentz and CPT invariance with ultracold neutrons [PDF]
In this paper we investigate, within the standard model extension framework, the influence of Lorentz- and CPT-violating terms on gravitational quantum states of ultracold neutrons.

The depth dose profiles of photons mirror those of fast neutrons. However, in contrast to the high linear energy transfer (LET) characteristics of neutrons; photons exhibit low LET features.

Maximum Azimuthal Anisotropy of Neutrons from Nb-Nb Collisions at 400 AMeV and the Nuclear Equation of State [PDF]
We measured the first azimuthal distributions of triple--differential cross sections of neutrons emitted in heavy-ion collisions, and compared their maximum azimuthal anisotropy ratios with Boltzmann--Uehling--Uhlenbeck (BUU) calculations with a momentum-
