The advance of the cosmic ray neutron (CRN) sensing method for estimating field scale soil moisture relied largely on simulations footprint properties epithermal neutrons (∼0.5 eV–100 keV). Commercially available CRN probes are usually additionally equipped with a thermal (<0.5 eV) detector. potential these measurements is rarely explored because relevant features neutrons, such as and sensitiv...

The article presents experimental data, based on which the influence of various factors strength and thermophysical characteristics porous heat-insulating materials was studied.&#x0D; Porous bodies in thermal power engineering are used for protection plants, aggregates, insulation structures buildings technological networks. properties these field use depend their chemical composition method pr...
