Statistical position reconstruction for RPC-based thermal neutron detectors
A. Morozov, L. M. S. Margato, V. Solovov +8
Multilayer position-sensitive 10B-RPC thermal neutron detectors offer an attractive combination of sub-millimeter spatial resolution and high (>50%) detection efficiency. Here we d…
Multilayer -RPC neutron imaging detector
L. M. S. Margato, A. Morozov, A. Blanco +8
Resistive plate chambers (RPC) lined with C neutron converters is a promising cost effective technology for position-sensitive thermal neutron detection capable to outp…
A 10B-based neutron detector with stacked Multiwire Proportional Counters and macrostructured cathodes
I. Stefanescu, Y. Abdullahi, J. Birch +6
We present the results of the measurements of the detection efficiency for a 4.7 Ã neutron beam incident upon a detector incorporating a stack of up to five MultiWire Proportional…
Projectile fragmentation of 129Xe at Elab=790 AMeV
J. Reinhold, J. Friese, H. -J. Koerner +6
We have measured production yields and longitudinal momentum distributions of projectile-like fragments in the reaction 129Xe + 27Al at an energy of Elab=790 AMeV. Production cross…
Towards high-rate RPC-based thermal neutron detectors using low-resistivity electrodes
L. M. S. Margato, A. Morozov, A. Blanco +12
We present experimental results on the counting rate measurements for several single-gap B lined resistive plate chambers (B-RPCs) with anodes made from standard floa…
Boron-10 lined RPCs for sub-millimeter resolution thermal neutron detectors: Feasibility study in a thermal neutron beam
L. M. S. Margato, A. Morozov, A. Blanco +9
The results of an experimental feasibility study of a position sensitive thermal neutron detector based on a resistive plate chamber (RPC) are presented. The detector prototype fea…
