Monte Carlo tool for neutron optics and neutron scattering instrument design
Unlike x-ray generators, neutron sources have inherently low bri ghtness, and care must be exerted in the design of neutron scattering instruments and their coupling to the source to ensure optimal use of the beam. We present a general, versatile Monte Carlo tool for the computer simulation of neutron optics and neutro n scattering instruments that allows a user to produce computer models of an...
متن کاملSimulation of a Neutron Detector for Real Time Imaging Applications
Monte Carlo Method is used to simulate a double layer gadolinium-amorphous silicon thermal neutron detector. The detector fabricated in pixel array configuration has various applications including neutron imaging. According to the simulation results, a detector consisting of a gadolinium (Gd) film with thickness of 2-4 ~m, sandwiched properly with two layers of sufficiently thick (-30 ?µm) hydr...
متن کاملSelf-imaging technique for beam collimation.
A simple collimation technique based on measuring the period of one self-image produced by a diffraction grating is proposed. Transversal displacement of the grating is not required, and then automatic single-frame processing can be performed. The self-image is acquired with a CMOS camera, and the period is computed using the variogram function. Analytical and experimental results are obtained,...
متن کاملThe Disk Chopper Spectrometer at NIST: a new instrument for quasielastic neutron scattering studies
We describe the Disk Chopper Spectrometer (DCS) at the NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR). The maximum measured flux at the sample, averaged over the 3 cm width and 10 cm height of the beam, with all choppers turning at 20,000 revolutions per minute and phased to transmit neutrons through the widest slots on each disk, is approximately 3 10 n cm 2 s . In this configuration the elastic reso...
متن کاملProton-Nucleus Scattering Approximations and Implications for LHC Crystal Collimation*
In particle accelerators, scattered protons with energies close to the incident particles may travel considerable distances with the beam before impacting on accelerator components downstream. To analyze such problems, angular deflection and energy loss of scattered particles are the main quantities to be simulated since these lead to changes in the beam’s phase space distribution and particle ...
