Multi-Grid Detector for Neutron Spectroscopy: Results Obtained on Time-of-Flight Spectrometer CNCS
M. Anastasopoulos, R. Bebb, K. Berry +23
The Multi-Grid detector technology has evolved from the proof-of-principle and characterisation stages. Here we report on the performance of the Multi-Grid detector, the MG.CNCS pr…
Investigation of background in large-area neutron detectors due to alpha emission from impurities in aluminium
J. Birch, J. -C. Buffet, J. -F. Clergeau +9
Thermal neutron detector based on films of BC have been developed as an alternative to He detectors. In particular, The Multi-Grid detector concept is considered for…
Study of a high spatial resolution 10B-based thermal neutron detector for application in neutron reflectometry: the Multi-Blade prototype
F. Piscitelli, J. C. Buffet, J. F. Clergeau +6
Although for large area detectors it is crucial to find an alternative to detect thermal neutrons because of the 3He shortage, this is not the case for small area detectors. Neutro…
An Information-Theoretical Approach to Image Resolution Applied to Neutron Imaging Detectors based upon Individual Discriminator Signals
Jean-François Clergeau, Matthieu Ferraton, Bruno Guérard +6
1D or 2D neutron imaging detectors with individual wire or strip readout using discriminators have the advantage of being able to treat several neutron impacts partially overlappin…
Investigation of gamma-ray sensitivity of neutron detectors based on thin converter films
Anton Khaplanov, Francesco Piscitelli, Jean-Claude Buffet +6
Currently, many detector technologies for thermal neutron detection are in development in order to lower the demand for the rare 3He gas. Gas detectors with solid thin film neutron…
Capacity formulas in MWPC: some critical reflexions
Patrick Van Esch
An approximate analytical expression for "capacitance" of MWPC configurations circulates in the literature since decades and is copied over and over again. In this paper we will tr…
