Characterisation of the Temperature-dependent Dark Rate of Hamamatsu R7081-100 10" Photomultiplier Tubes
Steve T. Wilson, Samuel Fargher, Robert J. Foster +4
Dark noise is a dominant background in photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), which are commonly used in liquid-filled particle detectors for single-photon detection to see the results of p…
Gadolinium Loaded Cherenkov Detectors for Neutron Monitoring in High Energy Air Showers
P. Stowell, S. Fargher, L. F. Thompson +2
Monitoring of high energy cosmic ray neutrons is of particular interest for cosmic ray water Cherenkov detectors as intense bundles of delayed neutrons have been found to arrive af…
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…
3D Printing Neutron Detectors using Scintillating BN/ZnS Resin
P. Stowell, Z. Kutz, S. Fargher +1
In this paper we demonstrate that it is possible to produce low cost neutron-sensitive detectors using stereo-lithography additive manufacturing. A curable scintillating resin is m…
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…
