Neutron production by cosmic-ray muons at shallow depth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The yield of neutrons produced by cosmic ray muons at a shallow depth of 32 meters of water equivalent has been measured. The Palo Verde neutrino detector, containing 11.3 tons of Gd loaded liquid scintillator and 3.5 tons of acrylic served as a target ...

Neutron skins and neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2013
The neutron-skin thickness of heavy nuclei provides a fundamental link to the equation of state of neutron-rich matter, and hence to the properties of neutron stars. The Lead Radius Experiment ("PREX") at Jefferson Laboratory has recently provided the first model-independence evidence on the existence of a neutron-rich skin in 208Pb.

Data Acquisition System Prototype of the ITER Diagnostic Divertor Neutron Flux Monitor Testing at Research Nuclear Facilities [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
The Divertor nuclear flux monitor (DNFM) is one of the ITER neutron diagnostics. This diagnostic consists of the three same subsystems. Each subsystem concludes the detector module with fission chambers (FCs) and the data acquisition system (DAQ).

Magnetic trapping of ultracold neutrons

open access: yes, 2001
Three-dimensional magnetic confinement of neutrons is reported. Neutrons are loaded into an Ioffe-type superconducting magnetic trap through inelastic scattering of cold neutrons with 4He.

High Performance Dual Ballistic and Thermal Neutrons Shields From Kevlar Fibers Reinforced Epoxy/B4C Hybrid Composites

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
Targeting the development of advanced lightweight thermal and ballistic neutrons shields, a new hybrid composite was developed, for the first time, from Kevlar fibers, epoxy and boron carbide (B4C) particles.

Probing Strongly Coupled Chameleons with Slow Neutrons

open access: yes, 2013
We consider different methods to probe chameleons with slow neutrons. Chameleon modify the potential of bouncing neutrons over a flat mirror in the terrestrial gravitational field.

A Rate Theory Model of Radiation-Induced Swelling in an Austenitic Stainless Steel

open access: yesJournal of Nuclear Engineering, 2021
Many rate theory models of cavity (void) swelling have been published over the past 50 years, all having the same, or similar, structures. A rigorous validation of the models has not been possible because of the dearth of information concerning the ...

Efficacy of crustal superfluid neutrons in pulsar glitch models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In order to assess the ability of purely crust-driven glitch models to match the observed glitch activity in the Vela pulsar, we conduct a systematic analysis of the dependence of the fractional moment of inertia of the inner crustal neutrons on the ...

Direct discrete method and its application to neutron transport problems [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2003
The objective of this paper is to introduce a new direct method for neutronic calculations. This method, called direct discrete method, is simpler than the application of the neutron transport equation and more compatible with the physical meanings of ...
