Observation of neutron-neutron interactions with double diffraction dissociation at the ISR

The study of neutron interactions with soft tissue using Monte Carlo simulation using the source PF

The most important part of neutron therapy treatment (NCT1) is to achieve a beam of neutrons with suitable energy and intensity, as well as the least pollution and damage. In this study, in order to correct the neutron spectrum from D-D fusion and its use in neutron therapy, a set of different materials which are called the Beam Shaping Assembly (BSA) was placed in the direction of energy 2.45 ...

Neutron Interactions with Matter

How neutrons interact with matter aflkcts the ways in which assays can be pdormed with neutrqs. Neutron interactions with the assay material affkct the interpretation of neutron measurements and limit the amount of fissile material the assay instrument can contain safely. A neutron detector is based on some neutron interaction with the material in the detector. Also, neutron interactions with s...

Neutron Diffraction Experiments

This ISEN award supported research toward improving the energy efficiency of actuators. The focused research objective was to develop next-generation shape memory alloy (SMA) models and structures, to demonstrate this new technology in targeted near-term applications on airplanes. Two research avenues were pursued to enable development of this new technology: 1) neutron diffraction experiments ...

Double Diffraction Dissociation at High t

Diffractive scattering in the presence of a large momentum transfer is an ideal place to study the short distance rapidity gap producing mechanism. Previous studies (experimental and theoretical) in this area have focussed on gaps between jets and on high-t vector meson production. We propose the measurement of double dissociation at high-t. We examine the numerous advantages to studying this m...
