Neutron Transport in Finite Random Media with Pure-triplet Scattering
نویسندگان
چکیده
The solution of the one-speed neutron transport equation in a finite slab random medium with pure-triplet anisotropic scattering is studied. The stochastic medium is assumed to consist of two randomly mixed immiscible fluids. The cross section and the scattering kernel are treated as discrete random variables, which obey the same statistics as Markovian processes and exponential chord length statistics. The medium boundaries are considered to have specular reflectivities with angular-dependent externally incident flux. The deterministic solution is obtained by using Pomraning-Eddington approximation. Numerical results are calculated for the average reflectivity and average transmissivity for different values of the single scattering albedo and varying the parameters which characterize the random medium. Compared to the results obtained by Adams et al. in case of isotropic scattering that based on the Monte Carlo technique, it can be seen that we have good comparable data.

Dynamics of the Singlet - Triplet System Coupled with Conduction Spins – Application to Pr Skutterudites –
Dynamics of the singlet-triplet crystalline electric field (CEF) system at finite temperatures is discussed by use of the non-crossing approximation. Even though the Kondo temperature is smaller than excitation energy to the CEF triplet, the Kondo effect appears at temperatures higher than the CEF splitting, and accordingly only quasi-elastic peak is found in the magnetic spectra. On the other ...

We report a neutron scattering study of the spin- 1/2 alternating bond antiferromagnet Cu(NO3)(2);2.5D(2)O for 0.06<k(B)T/J1<1.5. For k(B)T/J1<<1 the excitation spectrum is dominated by a coherent singlet-triplet mode centered at J1 = 0.442(2) meV with sinusoidal dispersion and a bandwidth of J2 = 0.106(2) meV. A complete description of the zero temperature contribution to the scattering functi...
متن کاملΛ-Neutron Scattering Lengths from Radiative K− Capture
Radiative capture of the K by the deuteron is examined as a reaction for measurement of the Λ-neutron scattering lengths. Using the final state interaction, analogous to measurements of the radiative capture of pions by deuterium, the scattering lengths of both the triplet and singlet Λ-n interaction can be inferred. The problem of the separation of these two fundamental parameters without and ...
متن کاملLeast-Squares Finite Element Discretization of the Neutron Transport Equation in Spherical Geometry
The main focus of this paper is the numerical solution of the Boltzmann transport equation for neutral particles through mixed material media in a spherically symmetric geometry. Standard solution strategies, like the Discrete Ordinates Method (DOM), may lead to nonphysical approximate solutions. In particular, a point source at the center of the sphere yields undesirable ray effects. Posing th...
متن کاملOrigin of low-coherence enhanced backscattering.
The origin of low-coherence enhanced backscattering (EBS) of light in random media when the spatial coherence length of illumination is much smaller than the transport mean free path has been poorly understood. We report that in weakly scattering discrete random media low-coherence EBS originates from time-reversed paths of double scattering. Low spatial coherence illumination dephases the time...
