3. 7. High-sensitivity Radioactive Xenon Monitoring and High-accuracy Neutron-proton Scattering Measurements

   Författare :Cecilia Johansson; Jan Blomgren; Nils Olsson; Allena Opper; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear physics; Monte Carlo simulations; MCNP; xenon detection; detector response; neutron detection; elastic scattering; differential cross section; Kärnfysik; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik;

   Sammanfattning : Two aspects of applied nuclear physics have been studied in this thesis; Monte Carlo simulations for high-sensitivity monitoring of radioactive xenon and high-accuracy neutron-proton scattering measurements for neutron physics applications and fundamental physics. The Monte Carlo simulations have been performed for two systems for detection of radioactive xenon, using the MCNP code. LÄS MER

4. 8. Excursions Along the Drip Line

   Författare :Thomas Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; beta-decay; cross-talk; exotic nuclei; reaction mechanism; neutron halo; gas-detector telescope; momentum distributions; 8He; neutron detection; radioactivity; 6; dissociation; neutron drip line; 11Be; Borromean systems; 11Li;

   Sammanfattning : The drip lines are the outer boundaries of the chart of the nuclides, terminating the isobaric chains on both sides of the valley of .beta.-stability with respect to stability against particle emission. The neutron drip line is, at the moment, only experimentally accessible for the very lightest elements. LÄS MER

5. 9. Order restricted inference over countable preordered sets. Statistical aspects of neutron detection

   Författare :Vladimir Pastukhov; Matematisk statistik; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Constrained inference; Isotonic regression; Density estimation; Grenander estimator; Limit distribution; Neutron detection;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers. In the first paper, we study the isotonic regression estimator over a general countable preordered set. We obtain the limiting distribution of the estimator and study its properties. Also, it is shown that the isotonisation preserves the rate of convergence of the underlying estimator. LÄS MER

7. 10. Characterisation of the Neutron Wall and of Neutron Interactions in Germanium-Detector Systems

   Författare :Joa Ljungvall; Johan Nyberg; Andres Gadea; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear physics; High-purity Ge detectors; Liquid scintillator detectors; Neutron scattering; Digital electronics; Time-of-flight technique; Pulse-shape simulation and analysis; Monte Carlo simulations; Geant4; Gamma-ray tracking; AGATA; Neutron Wall; Kärnfysik; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik;

   Sammanfattning : A Monte Carlo simulation of the Neutron Wall detector system has been performed using Geant4, in order to define optimum conditions for the detection and identification of multiple neutrons. Emphasis was put on studying the scattering of neutrons between different detectors, which is the main source of the apparent increase of the number of detected neutrons. LÄS MER
