Radiofrequency spin flippers (RFSF) are key elements of Neutron Resonance Spin Echo (NRSE) spectrometers, which allow performing controlled manipulations of the beam polarization. We report on the design and test of a new type of RFSF which originality lies in the new manufacturing technique for the static coil. [...]

Microstructures and tensile properties of commercial pure magnesium processed by rotary swaging (RS) technique were investigated. Bulk and gradient textures in the RS processed Mg were characterised by neutron and synchrotron diffractions, respectively. [...]

Many overview papers have been published with recommended nuclear data for use in the k 0 method of NAA and made available in scientific journals or in the form of a downloadable database. In September 2009, the k 0-International Scientific Committee formed the k 0-Nuclear Data Committee (k 0-NDC) whose first task was to collect all these data at a single place to facilitate updating and to correct any evident errors. [...]

An experiment was performed at the scientific neutron source FRM II in Garching to determine the cumulative antineutrino spectrum of the fission products of U238. Target foils of natural uranium were irradiated with a thermal and a fast neutron beam and the emitted β spectra were recorded with a γ-suppressing electron telescope. [...]

The research reactor FRM II offers different irradiation facilities with highly thermalized neutron flux. 3 facilities for the k 0 neutron activation analysis (k 0 NAA) will be introduced shortly. [...]

Residual strains near the sprues of ingots with different contents of Zn (6 wt. % and 9 wt. [...]

Commercial detonation nanodiamond samples were exposed to neutron bombardment in the dose range between 1.1 and 3.3 × 1016 n cm−2. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed that this nanodiamond material allows up to 237 J/g of Wigner energy to build up until released as an exothermic peak above 300°C. [...]
