متن کاملSimulation of a Neutron Detector for Real Time Imaging Applications
Monte Carlo Method is used to simulate a double layer gadolinium-amorphous silicon thermal neutron detector. The detector fabricated in pixel array configuration has various applications including neutron imaging. According to the simulation results, a detector consisting of a gadolinium (Gd) film with thickness of 2-4 ~m, sandwiched properly with two layers of sufficiently thick (-30 ?µm) hydr...
متن کاملImproved Fast Neutron Spectroscopy via Detector Segmentation
Organic scintillators are widely used for fast neutron detection and spectroscopy. Several effects complicate the interpretation of results from detectors based upon these materials. First, fast neutrons will often leave a detector before depositing all of their energy within it. Second, fast neutrons will typically scatter several times within a detector, and there is a non-proportional relati...
متن کاملA neutron detector using integrated circuits
With the advancements and miniaturization in semiconductor technology, the circuits within integrated circuits have become increasingly sensitive to the effects of radiation, and therefore, are susceptible to improper functioning in high radiation fields. The researchers at Texas A&M University have been able to manipulate this disadvantage into an advantage for radiation detection applications...
متن کاملConstraints on Vesta's elemental composition: Fast neutron measurements by Dawn's gamma ray and neutron detector
Surface composition information from Vesta is reported using fast neutron data collected by the gamma ray and neutron detector on the Dawn spacecraft. After correcting for variations due to hydrogen, fast neutrons show a compositional dynamic range and spatial variability that is consistent with variations in average atomic mass from howardite, eucrite, and diogenite (HED) meteorites. These dat...
