  1. 1. Modeling of Low-Energy Neutron Scattering in Liquid Hydrogen Using NCrystal

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

    Author : Tim Günter; [2022]
    Keywords : ESS; European Spallation Source; neutron; scattering; moderator; liquid hydrogen; modeling; ncrystal; njoy; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The European Spallation Source ESS, under construction in Lund, Sweden, aims to produce high-brightness and intensity neutrons for a multitude of experiments upon completion. An efficient production of neutrons requires elaborate understanding of the moderation process which slows the neutrons from relativistic speed to a kinetic energy of meV. READ MORE

  3. 2. Thermal transients study for the ESS target helium cooling system

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Hannes Björk; [2022]
    Keywords : ESS; European Spallation Source; models; Modelica; system identification; sensors; cooling system; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The European Spallation Source (ESS) is going to be the worlds most powerful spallation source once in full operation. The neutrons used by scientists and engineers are spallated from a rotating wheel of wolfram, being bombarded by accellerated protons. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis is part of a joint thermochemical heat storage (TCS) research project named Neutrons for Heat Storage (NHS), involving three Nordic research institutes. The project isfunded by Nordforsk and KTH Royal Institute of Technology for the project partner KTH. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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.

  6. 5. Calculation of neutron scattering libraries for liquid ortho-deuterium and hydrogen deuteride

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

    Author : Alexander Huusko; [2022]
    Keywords : PIMD; NJOY; HD; D2; HighNESS; ESS; RPMD; TSL; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The European Spallation Source (ESS) has launched a project called HighNESS, with the task of investigating the potential of adding a second moderator system to the facility, with ortho-deuterium (o-D2) being the main material of interest. Another moderator material which could be of interest is hydrogen deuteride (HD). READ MORE
