A Neutron Multiplicity Meter for Deep Underground Muon-Induced High Energy Neutron Measurements

We present, for the first time, the design of an instrument capable of measuring the high energy (>60MeV) muon-induced neutron flux deep underground. The instrument is based on applying the Gd-loaded liquid-scintillator technique to measure the rate of multiple low energy neutron events produced in a Pb target and from this measurement to infer the rate of high energy neutron events. This uniqu...

Image Restoration of Lunar Neutron Albedo Maps for the Lunar Explora- Tion Neutron Detector (lend)

Introduction: The Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector (LEND) onboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) will measure the flux of neutrons from the Moon, which are produced by the continuous and isotropic cosmic ray bombardment of the lunar surface. When cosmic rays hit the regolith, they release high-energy neutrons that are then slowed down and absorbed by the nuclei of elements in the rego...

Compact thermal neutron sensors for moderator-based neutron spectrometers.

In the framework of the NESCOFI@BTF project of the Italian Institute of Nuclear Physics, different types of active thermal neutron sensors were studied by coupling semiconductor devices with a suitable radiator. The objective was to develop a detector of small dimensions with a proper sensitivity to use at different positions in a novel moderating assembly for neutron spectrometry. This work di...
