چکیده
The thermal neutron background at Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc (LSC) has been determined using several 3He proportional counter detectors. Bare and Cd shielded counters were used in a series of long measurements. Pulse shape discrimination techniques applied to discriminate between gamma signals as well other intrinsic contributions. Montecarlo simulations allowed us estimate the sensitivity detectors calculate values for flux neutrons inside Hall-A LSC. obtained value is (3.5±0.8)×10−6 n/cm2s, within an order magnitude compared similar facilities.

متن کاملNeutron Background at Boulby Mine
The neutron background at the underground laboratory at Boulby-a site for several dark matter experiments-is discussed. Special emphasis is put on the neutron background produced by cosmic-ray muons. The most recent versions of the muon propagation code MUSIC, and particle transport code FLUKA are used to evaluate muon and neutron fluxes. The results of simulations are compared with experimenta...
متن کاملPlataforma de laboratorio para prácticas de filtrado activo de potencia
— Non-linear electrical loads connected to power systems introduce non-active power components. The current harmonics and reactive power deteriorate the power quality and reduce the electrical system efficiency. These non-desirable effects can be avoided by using shunt active power filtering. This is a relevant topic in electrical and power electronics systems and, as a consequence, it must be ...
متن کاملStatus of the ANAIS experiment at Canfranc
The present status of the ANAIS experiment (Annual Modulation with NaI’s) is shown. ANAIS is intended to use more than 100 kg of NaI(Tl) in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory (Spain) searching for seasonal modulation effects in the WIMP signal; in a first stage, a prototype (one single 10.7 kg crystal) has been developed in order to obtain the best conditions regarding the energy threshold and...

We show a toolbox for linguistic annotation (including phonology, sillabification, part of speech, lemma and morphological features) especially adapted to Spanish spoken corpora. These tools have been developed and validated against several spontaneous speech corpora compiled by the Laboratorio de Lingüística Informática-UAM: C-ORAL-ROM, CHIEDE, CORLEC
