Use of BC-523a liquid scintillator for simultaneous neutron spectroscopy and gamma counting with the implementation of a neutron history reconstruction algorithm

Creator:

Frey, Wesley D.

Abstract:

Real-time, high efficiency neutron spectroscopy has, historically, been a persistent challenge in the field of radiation detection and, for the most part, has gone unsolved. The most promising method to resolve this challenge, is the boron-capture technique using an organic scintillation system (BC-523a). Detectors that utilize this method possess an...

Monte Carlo model of a capture gamma ray analyzer for a seafloor core sample

Creator:

Almasoumi, Abdullah Muhammad Sultan

Abstract:

Of great benefit, but not limited to seafloor mineral exploration, is a technique that fairly rapidly determines the composition of a drilled vibracore (in a time comparable to the time involved in obtaining the core). The rapid assessment is desired to predict whether a given region warrants further exploration by...
