Design of Instrumentation and Methodologies for Determination of Free Neutron Characteristics
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2017)
Measuring neutron source‐dependent free neutron properties over a large neutron energy range, with human‐portable instrumentation, continues to push the frontier of neutron detection instrumentation design and analysis ...
Investigation and development of wideband antenna gain enhancement techniques
(2023)
The far-field gain of an antenna relies on its physical dimensions, often posing a challenge for achieving higher gain without increasing size. We address this issue by exploring innovative design strategies to enhance the ...
Amorphous hydrogenated boron carbide for solid-state direct-conversion thermal neutron detection
(2021)
. Experimentally, we have used space-charge-limited current (SCLC) analysis to extract the charge carrier mobility in a-BC:H thin films. To better describe the extracted charge carrier mobility, we have presented an extension of SCLC theory to include negative...
Neutron Response Vectorization and Optimization of Moderating Neutron Spectrometers for Active Interrogation
(University of Missouri–Kansas City, 2015)
The detection of special nuclear material (SNM) is no trivial task; the low activity of isotopes such as 235U and the ease of shielding make their passive detection virtually impossible in the maritime environment. Active ...
