  3. 7. Thermal neutron counting and gamma-ray peak identification from fusion reactions, using a Sodern Genie-16 Neutron Generator

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

    Author : Auden Ti; [2022]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis work focuses on the categorisation of a Sodern Genie-16 Neutron Generator, at the Nuclear Applications Laboratory, Lund University. To that end, the goals of this work focuses on the re-development of the pre-existing infrastructure surrounding the Sodern Genie-16 Neutron Generator for the purposes of internally irradiating samples, and the subsequent categorisation of the new configuration for extraction of fast neutrons.

  4. 8. Background Studies of the High-Intensity Baryon Extraction and Measurement (HIBEAM) Experiment at the European Spallation Source

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

    Author : Blahoslav Rataj; [2021]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The High-Intensity Baryon Extraction and Measurement experiment (HIBEAM) is proposed as one of the experimental stations at the European Spallation Source (ESS). This experiment will mainly focus on the neutron into sterile neutron oscillations which violate the baryon number (B) by one unit. READ MORE

  5. 9. Calibration of a Fast Neutron Time-of-Flight System

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

    Author : Armando Javier Morales Urrutia; [2021]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Future experiments with thermal neutrons at neutron facilities may encounter fast neutrons as sources of background. Understanding fast neutron behavior on an event-by-event basis in a detector is important for these complementary thermal neutron experiments. One way to study fast neutron events is by performing a time-of-flight measurement. READ MORE

  6. 10. Review and Design Adaptations of a SrCl2-NH3 bench-scale Thermochemical Heat Storage system

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Hjörtur Brynjarsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Thermochemical heat storage TCS ; SrCl2-NH3; system design; kinetics; absorption; desorption; octaammine; diammine; monoammine; pressure management; commissioning; Termokemisk värmelagring TCS ; SrCl2-NH3; systemdesign; kinetik; absorption; desorption; oktaammin; diammin; monoammin; tryckhantering; driftsättning;

    Abstract : Thermochemical heat storage (TCS) is a thermal energy storage (TES) technology used to store thermal energy for later use. TCS can provide heating or cooling services from intermittently available thermal energy, often low grade waste heat. READ MORE
