Towards disentangling heterogeneous soil moisture patterns in cosmic-ray neutron sensor footprints [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021 Cosmic-ray neutron sensing (CRNS) allows for non-invasive soil moisture estimations at the field scale. The derivation of soil moisture generally relies on secondary cosmic-ray neutrons in the epithermal to fast energy ranges.

Dose assessment with MCNP5/X code for boron neutron capture therapy of pancreas cancer [PDF]
Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2021 Boron neutron capture therapy is based on neutron capture by 10B and creation of high energy alpha particle and recoiled 7Li ion which have ranges comparable to cell dimensions.

Neutrons in simulations of extensive air showers [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 We study neutrons produced in simulations of extensive air showers. By using the Monte Carlo simulation package Fluka, our examination is able to extend from the highest energy neutrons, produced in hadronic interactions, all the way down to thermal ...

Eurasian Journal of Physics and Functional Materials, 2021 Neutrons are produced in accelerators by irradiating heavy targets with an electron or proton beam. Produced neutrons are of high energy. The purpose of our work is optimization the neutron flux by MCNP-6 code for production the thermal neutron flux ...

Neutron Stars—Thermal Emitters [PDF]
Space Science Reviews, 2014 Confronting theoretical models with observations of thermal radiation emitted by neutron stars is one of the most important ways to understand the properties of both, superdense matter in the interiors of the neutron stars and dense magnetized plasmas in their outer layers.

Thermal conductivity of neutrons in neutron star cores [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2001 The diffusive thermal conductivity of neutrons in dense matter [$ρ\sim (1 - 8) \times 10^{14}$ g cm$^{-3}$] of neutron star cores is calculated. The contribution from neutron--neutron and neutron--proton collisions is taken into account. We use the transition probabilities calculated for symmetric dense nucleon matter on the basis of the Dirac ...
