Measuring Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering on a neutron target is one of the necessary steps to complete our understanding of the structure of the nucleon in terms of Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs). DVCS on a neutron target allows to operate a flavor decomposition of the GPDs and plays a complementary role to DVCS on a transversely polarized proton target in the determination of the G...

The aim of this paper is to validate a set of methods to model the measured neutron emission on Mega Amp Spherical Tokamak (MAST) using TRANSP. Neutrons are measured along a set of collimated lines of sight (LoS) at MAST by a Neutron Camera (NC). The neutron emissivity is modeled with TRANSP [1] for different plasma discharges using a selfconsistent data set produced by a data preparation and a...

Ultrafast doped zinc oxide crystal promised us a good opportunity to build new instruments for ICF fusion neutron measurement. Two pulsed neutron detectors based on ZnO crystal wafer have been conceptually designed, the superfast ZnO timing detector and the scintillation recoil proton neutron detection system. The structure of these detectors was presented, and some characters were studied as w...

Current solar neutrino experiments indicate the possibility of neutrino oscillations. These flavour oscillations can be confirmed or refuted by the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO), a 1,000 tonne heavy water Čerenkov detector presently under construction. This detector will measure the 8B νe flux and energy spectrum via a pure charge current reaction, and independently the 8B total ν flux via...
