  1. 1. Design, Construction and Characterization of a Portable Fast-Neutron Detector

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

    Author : Nicholai Mauritzsson; [2017]
    Keywords : fast-neutrons; detector; plastic scintillator; NE110; neutron tracking; scintillation; spallation; european spallation source; sonnig; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : At European Spallation Source ERIC, 2 GeV proton bunches will be accelerated towards a tungsten target where spallation will occur, producing a wide neutron energy spectrum. Despite the shielding and moderators in place to stop and/or reduce their energy, a significant portion of the most energetic neutrons, called prompt neutrons, might still reach the sample position of a neutron-scattering instrument.

  2. 2. Developing a test procedure for neutron detection/non detection using a Small TPC Prototype

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

    Author : Nicholai Mauritzsson; [2016]
    Keywords : Time Projection Chamber; TPC; neutron; anti-neutron; Gas Electron Multiplier; ALTRO; Readout electronics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This work relates to the proposed n-nbar experiment at ESS and covers a procedure with which future neutron research can be made using a small TPC prototype. Settings for the GEM amplification voltage supply and main drift field across the chamber have been established using minimum ionizing cosmic muons as a reference. READ MORE
