Spallation is not the only Fruit: Producing Neutrons using Low Energy Fusion Reactions [PDF]
Commercially there is a growing interest in applications of neutrons. Currently the majority of neutron sources are based at research institutions from either reactors or spallation sources.

Neutron skins and neutron stars [PDF]
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.

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.

Bouncing neutrons and the neutron centrifuge [PDF]
The recent observation of the quantum state of the neutron bouncing freely under gravity allows some novel experiments. A method of purifying the ground state is given, and possible applications to the measurement of the electric dipole moment of the neutron and the short distance behaviour of gravity are discussed.

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.

Relation between mutation yield and cell lethality over a wide range of X-ray and fission neutron doses in maize [PDF]
Dry maize seeds, of a genetic stock heterozygous for the yellow-green locus (Yg^ Λ ^ ) ι were irradiated with fission neutron doses up to 2700 rads and with 250 kVp X-rays to 40 000 rads.

Radiobiological studies with monoenergetic neutrons [PDF]
The Radiological Research Accelerator Facility (RARAF) has the capability of producing essentially monoenergetic neutron beams, ranging in energy from 16.4 MeV down to 220 keV.

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.
