High-energy and thermal-neutron imaging and modeling with an amorphous silicon flat-panel detector.
The Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) operates two spallation neutron sources dedicated to research in materials science, condensed-matter physics, and fundamental and applied nuclear physics. Prior to 1995, all thermal neutron radiography at Los Alamos was done on a beam port attached to the Omega West reactor, a small 8MW research reactor used primarily for radioisotope production an...
متن کاملMaps of subsurface hydrogen from the high energy neutron detector, Mars Odyssey.
After 55 days of mapping by the High Energy Neutron Detector onboard Mars Odyssey, we found deficits of high-energy neutrons in the southern highlands and northern lowlands of Mars. These deficits indicate that hydrogen is concentrated in the subsurface. Modeling suggests that water ice-rich layers that are tens of centimeters in thickness provide one possible fit to the data.
متن کاملNeutron – Mirror Neutron Oscillation and Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays
We discuss the phenomenological and astrophysical implications of neutron mirror neutron oscillation and show that the present experimental data allow an oscillation time in vacuum, τnn′ , much smaller than the neutron lifetime. Such a fast oscillation could provide a very efficient mechanism for transporting protons with super-GZK energies at very large distances provided that the CMB of mirro...
متن کاملPrototype developments for a high-resolution neutron detector at RB
A detector for momentum measurements of highenergy neutrons in the energy range 200 MeV to 1000 MeV is being developed for the RB experiment at FAIR. The detection principle is based on a combination of converter material and subsequent detection of charged particles from reactions in the converter material. Multigap Resistive-Plate Chambers (MRPC) are used for the detection of charged particle...
متن کاملPerforated diode neutron detector modules fabricated from high-purity silicon
Compact neutron detectors are being designed and tested for use as low-power real-time personnel dosimeters. The neutron detectors are pin diodes that are mass produced from high-purity Si wafers. Each detector has thousands of circular perforations etched vertically into the device. The perforations are backfilled with LiF to make the pin diodes sensitive to thermal neutrons. The prototype dev...
