In this work, novel efficient epoxy resin based shielding materials enhanced with BN powder
against nuclear radiation was proposed. The composites were prepared by using epoxy …

This work explains a new, highly sensitive method for the detection of neutrons, which uses
the T 1/2= 845 ns delay in the decay of 128 I at the 137.8 keV energy level, resulting from the …

Effective neutron detection systems are critical in various nuclear fields. Most of the current
detection systems rely on He-3 detectors due to their high neutron cross section. However …

There is a desire from the radiation detection community to develop a low-cost method to
detect neutron radiation. One potential solution is to measure the 478 keV gamma-ray from …

There is a growing necessity to develop revolutionary neutron detectors for nuclear energy,
nuclear physics, medical physics, astrophysics, biological imaging, nonproliferation, and …

Barium titanate (BaTiO 3) is a compound that has a structure called perovskite. Synthesis of
BaTiO 3 can be done by employing separate methods. BaTiO 3 has four polymorphs which …

The survey of oil and gas often employs two radiation-based measurements in a rock
formation: the electron density with γ-ray density tools; and the hydrogen content with …

The oil and gas industry uses nuclear logging method to survey for the presence of
hydrocarbons in a given region of interest. Nuclear logging tools are used to achieve this …

The interaction of a mono-energetic neutron beam with a target layer of Boron-10 is studied
to characterize the behavior of neutrons and produced charged particles inside the layer …

Radiation detection is extensively used in borehole logging—a technique widely employed
in oil and gas, and mineral exploration. The workhorse of this detection application for many …
