The physical quantities of interest are neutron source intensity, neutron flux intensity on the surface of the beam shaping assembly as well as ... These are later converted to optical density values, ...

Scientists have created the first neutron 'Airy beam,' which has unusual capabilities that ordinary neutron beams do not. The achievement could enhance neutron-based techniques for investigating the ...

"This opens up a whole new way to control neutron beams, which could help us see inside materials or explore some big questions in physics." A paper announcing the findings appears in Physical ...

“This opens up a whole new way to control neutron beams, which could help us see inside materials or explore some big questions in physics.” A study announcing the findings appears in today’s (April ...

Neutron Airy beams could help neutron imaging facilities see better, Huber said. They would help increase the resolution of a scan or create different focal spots to look more closely at ...

A process that is central to these interactions is neutron capture, which entails the absorption of a neutron by a nucleus, followed by the emission of gamma-rays. "The probability (per unit area ...
