Self-Shielding Copper Substrate Neutron Supermirror Guides
P. M. Bentley, R. Hall-Wilton, C. P. Cooper-Jensen +5
The invention of self-shielding copper substrate neutron guides is described, along with the rationale behind the development, and the realisation of commercial supply. The relativ…
Experimental study of concrete activation compared to MCNP simulations for safety of neutron sources
D. Hajdú, E. Dian, K. Gméling +4
The neutron activation of shielding materials and the generated decay gamma radiation are well-known issues in terms of occupational exposure. Though the trace elements of shieldin…
The neutron tagging facility at Lund University
F. Messi, H. Perrey, K. Fissum +27
Over the last decades, the field of thermal neutron detection has overwhelmingly employed He-3-based technologies. The He-3 crisis together with the forthcoming establishment of th…
Measurements and Monte-Carlo simulations of the particle self-shielding effect of B4C grains in neutron shielding concrete
D. D. DiJulio, C. P. Cooper-Jensen, I. Llamas-Jansa +2
A combined measurement and Monte-Carlo simulation study was carried out in order to characterize the particle self-shielding effect of B4C grains in neutron shielding concrete. Sev…
Using Back-Scattering to Enhance Efficiency in Neutron Detectors
Thomas Kittelmann, Esben Klinkby, Xiao Xiao Cai +3
The principle of using strongly scattering materials to recover efficiency in neutron detectors, via back-scattering of unconverted thermal neutrons, is discussed in general. Feasi…
Overcoming High Energy Backgrounds at Pulsed Spallation Sources
Nataliia Cherkashyna, Richard J. Hall-Wilton, Douglas D. DiJulio +18
Instrument backgrounds at neutron scattering facilities directly affect the quality and the efficiency of the scientific measurements that users perform. Part of the background at…
