1. 1. Constructing and commissioning of a Multi-Grid neutron detector prototype for the European Spallation Source

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/European Spallation Source ESS AB

   Author : Rebecka Wahlén; [2022]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : A prototype of a novel 10B-based neutron detector called the Multi-Grid detector has been constructed, tested and commissioned for the European Spallation Source (ESS). The detector is constructed after the specifications set by the CSPEC instrument at ESS and is therefore called the CSPEC Multi-Grid detector. READ MORE

3. 2. 2D Neutron Imaging with 10B-Based Multi-Blade Detector

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik

   Author : Tõnu Ilves; [2018]
   Keywords : thermal; neutron; imaging; 2D; Multi-Blade; detector; boron; boron-10; nuclear physics; multi wire proportional chamber; digitizer; ESS; European Spallation Source; surface study; reflectometry; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In the field of thermal-neutron imaging, the Multi-Blade detector concept and design, being developed for the upcoming European Spallation Source in Lund, Sweden, is unique. The current report presents, for the first time, the neutron-imaging capabilities of a boron-10-based Multi-Blade thermal-neutron detector, measured at a reflectometry instrument at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire, England under high spallation neutron flux.

4. 3. Development of a Detector System for Detection of Thermal Neutrons from Spent Nuclear Fuel

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Daniel Söderström; [2016]
   Keywords : neutron detection; neutron; 10B; boron-10; nuclear physics; boron; neutron detector; scintillator; boron carbide; B4C; nuclear fuel; repository; SKB; Physics and Astronomy; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The nuclear reaction 10B(n,alpha)7Li* was utilised to develop a neutron detection system. This system has the purpose of being used to detect the thermal neutron radiation emitted by spent nuclear fuel, before it is transported to a final repository. READ MORE

5. 4. Sensitivity study of control rod depletion coefficients

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

   Author : Joel Blomberg; [2015]
   Keywords : nuclear power; control rod; control rods; depletion; kärnkraft; styrstav; styrstavar; utbränning;

   Abstract : This report investigates the sensitivity of the control rod depletion coefficients, Sg, to different input parameters and how this affects the accumulated 10B depletion, β. Currently the coefficients are generated with PHOENIX4, but the geometries can be more accurately simulated in McScram. READ MORE

6. 5. High Speed IO using Xilinx Aurora

   University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik; Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Jeremia Nyman; [2013]
   Keywords : FPGA; Xilinx Aurora; HSIO; High Speed; Serial communication;

   Abstract : A VHDL evaluation platform and interface to the Xilinx Aurora 8b/10b IP has been designed, tested and evaluated. The evaluation platform takes an arbitrary amount of data sources and sends the data over 1,2,4 or 8 multi gigabit serial lanes, using the Aurora 8b/10b protocol. READ MORE
