On the Chemistry and Physical Properties of Flux and Floating Zone Grown SmB6 Single Crystals
W. A. Phelan, S. M. Koohpayeh, P. Cottingham +8
Recent theoretical and experimental findings suggest that the long-known but not well understood low temperature resistance plateau of SmB6 may originate from protected surface sta…
The effect of craters on the lunar neutron flux
V. R. Eke, K. E. Bower, S. Diserens +8
The variation of remotely sensed neutron count rates is measured as a function of cratercentric distance using data from the Lunar Prospector Neutron Spectrometer. The count rate,…
The Upscattering of Ultracold Neutrons from the polymer
E. I. Sharapov, C. L. Morris, M. Makela +28
It is generally accepted that the main cause of ultracold neutron (UCN) losses in storage traps is the upscattering to the thermal energy range by hydrogen adsorbed on the surface…
Understanding Ultracold Neutron Production in Oxygen Solids from Volume and Temperature Dependent Yields
C. -Y. Liu, C. M. Lavelle, D. J. Salvat +5
We present experimental data on ultracold neutron (UCN) production in solid oxygen from 5 K to 50 K. The experiment used 3 cells of different dimensions in order to study the exces…
Magnetic Neutron Scattering in Solid Oxygen and its Applications to Ultracold Neutron Production
C. -Y. Liu, C. M. Lavelle, C. M. Brown
Using neutron scattering, we investigate the static and dynamic structure functions of 3 distinct solid phases (using powder average techniques), and characterize the corr…
Coherent Neutron Scattering in Polycrystalline Deuterium and its Implications for Ultracold Neutron Production
C. -Y. Liu, A. R. Young, C. M. Lavelle +1
This paper presents a calculation of the neutron cross-sections in solid materials (used in practical neutron sources) with a large coherent scattering contribution. In particular,…
