UCN Source at an External Beam of Thermal Neutrons
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2015 We propose a new method for production of ultracold neutrons (UCNs) in superfluid helium. The principal idea consists in installing a helium UCN source into an external beam of thermal or cold neutrons and in surrounding this source with a solid methane ...

Thermal moderator-reflector assembly for HBS [PDF]
EPJ Web of ConferencesThe thermal moderator is the key component in a research neutron source to convert the primary neutrons which typically have energies in the MeV regime into useful neutrons for investigations with energies well below 1 eV. In the case of a HiCANS as HBS,

New applications and developments in the neutron shielding
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 Shielding neutrons involve three steps that are slowing neutrons, absorption of neutrons, and impregnation of gamma rays. Neutrons slow down with thermal energy by hydrogen, water, paraffin, plastic. Hydrogenated materials are also very effective for the
