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.

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 ...

Development of a Fast-Spectrum Self-Powered Neutron Detector for Molten Salt Experiments in the Versatile Test Reactor [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 The self-powered neutron detector (SPND) is a widely used flux monitor in thermal nuclear reactors. Although this is a mature technology, the current state of the art is tuned for a thermal neutron spectrum, so many of the devices currently in use lack ...
