✦ Synopsis

Using liquid hydrogen, condensed by cooled helium gas, reactor neutrons can be moderated to subthermal energies. For energies between 5 and 0"3 meV the neutron flux is increased by factors of between 5 and 26. The hydrogen condensation is carried out in a thermosiphon system inside the beam part of the reactor. The in-pile installation and the principles of operational and safety controls are described.

Neutron depth proÐling (NDP) is a method of near-surface analysis for isotopes that undergo neutron-induced positive Q-value charged particle reactions, e.g. (n, a) and (n, p). The method is based on measuring the energy loss of the charged particles as they exit the specimen. Depending on the mater
