Optimising Scintillating Neutron Detectors for Cosmic Ray Soil Moisture Monitoring
J. P. Stowell, S. J. Fargher, C. A. Steer +1
Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensing (CRNS) is a powerful technique that allows non-invasive monitoring of soil moisture on length scales well matched for agricultural applications. One fact…
The application of muon tomography to the imaging of railway tunnels
L. F. Thompson, J. P. Stowell, S. J. Fargher +6
Cosmic Ray Muon Radiography utilizes highly-penetrating cosmic ray muons to image the density profile of an object of interest. Here we report on the first trial to use a portable…
A compact, high resolution tracker for cosmic ray muon scattering tomography using semiconductor sensors
F. Keizer, A. Gorbatch, M. A. Parker +2
A semiconductor tracker for muon scattering tomography is presented. The tracker contains silicon strip sensors with an m pitch, precision mechanics and integrated cooling.…
Characterisation of Large Area THGEMs and Experimental Measurement of the Townsend Coefficients for CF
J. Burns, T. Crane, A. C. Ezeribe +5
Whilst the performance of small THGEMs is well known, here we consider the challenges in scaling these up to large area charge readouts. We first verify the expected gain of larger…
Spin freezing and magnetic inhomogeneities in bilayer manganites
A. I. Coldea, S. J. Blundell, C. A. Steer +2
We have performed a muon spin rotation study on polycrystalline samples of electron-doped layered manganites, LaSrMnO (0.4< x<1), in order to investigate…
