Neutron detectors are useful for a number of applications, including the identification of nuclear weapons, radiation dosimetry, and nuclear reactor monitoring, among others. Microstructured solid-state neutron detectors ...

For polyethylene both ARCS/SEQUOIA and VISION method were used to generate the new thermal scattering libraries. Overall VISION method performed better than SEQUOIA method, where the RPI DFT+oClimax library calculates best ...

Neutron transmission and neutron capture yield measurements were made at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute to obtain energy differential cross section data that was not previously available to the nuclear engineering and ...

The Transient Reactor Test Facility is a nuclear research reactor operated by the Idaho National Laboratory. It was used for the testing of nuclear reactor fuels and materials from 1959 until 1994. It has remained inactive ...

Concentrated solar power (CSP) has been used as one of the most important clean and renewable energy sources. Molten chloride salts, which possess excellent thermal-physical properties with low economic cost, have become ...
