In-Beam Background Suppression Shield
V. Santoro, X. X. Cai, D. D. DiJulio +2
The long (3ms) proton pulse of the European Spallation Source (ESS) gives rise to unique and potentially high backgrounds for the instrument suite. In such a source an instrument c…
MeV Neutron Production from Thermal Neutron Capture in {6}^Li Simulated with Geant4
Valentina Santoro, Douglas D. Di Julio, Phillip M. Bentley
Various Li compounds are commonly used at neutron facilities as neutron absorbers. These compounds provide one of the highest ratios of neutron attenuation to -ray production. U…
Low-energy Coulomb excitation of Fe and Mn following in-beam decay of Mn
L. P. Gaffney, J. Van de Walle, B. Bastin +26
Sub-barrier Coulomb-excitation was performed on a mixed beam of Mn and Fe, following in-trap decay of Mn at REX-ISOLDE, CERN. The trapping and charge b…
Collectivity in the light radon nuclei measured directly via Coulomb excitation
L. P. Gaffney, A. P. Robinson, D. G. Jenkins +49
Background: Shape coexistence in heavy nuclei poses a strong challenge to state-of-the-art nuclear models, where several competing shape minima are found close to the ground state.…
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…
