Neutron sources can be directly identified from measured spectra rather than proxies using inference tools adapted from ...

Neutron detection underpins a wide range of scientific, industrial and security applications, from reactor monitoring and neutron scattering to medical imaging and homeland security. Traditional ...

In a collaboration showing the power of innovation and teamwork, physicists and engineers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory developed a mobile muon detector that promises to ...

The application of CVD diamond in high energy particle physics, fusion experiments, and neutron sources as vital diagnostic tools has been accelerated by a long-standing development partnership ...

In many ways, neutrons are mysterious. They are everywhere, present in the nucleus of all elements. Yet they can be difficult to detect: unlike protons or electrons, they possess no charge, and when ...

In a muon tomography detector, cosmic-ray muons interact with an object and strike scintillators that emit photons. Wavelength-shifting fibers transmit the photons to photodetectors that digitize the ...
