The cross sections for the reactions (115)In(n, p)(115g)Cd, (115)In(n, alpha)(112)Ag, (115)In(n, 2n)(114m)In, (113)In(n, 2n)(112m)In, (115)In(n, n')(115m)In, and (113)In(n, n')(113m)In induced by 14 MeV neutrons have been measured by activation relative to the (27)Al(n, alpha)(24)Na. Measurements were carried out by gamma-detection using a coaxial HPGe detector. As samples, natural indium has been used. The fast neutrons were produced by the T(d, n)(4)He reaction. The results obtained are compared with existing data.

Metal halide perovskite (MHP) solar cells are promising aerospace power sources given their potential as inexpensive, lightweight, and resilient solar electricity generators. Herein, the intrinsic radiation tolerance of unencapsulated methylammonium lead iodide/chloride (CHNHPbICl) films was isolated. Spatially resolved photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and confocal microscopy revealed the fundamental defect physics through optical changes as films were irradiated with 4.

We aimed to explore the possibility of realizing a beam shaping assembly (BSA) driven by a 15-kW beam of 33-MeV electrons of an electron linear accelerator (LINAC) when a boronophenylalanine is adopted as a boron carrier. Simulation calculations were performed to design two types of BSAs driven by the small LINAC. The one was an experimental BSA, and the other was a high-performance BSA.

The Particle Time of Flight (PTOF) diagnostic is a chemical vapor deposition diamond-based detector and is the only diagnostic for measuring nuclear bang times of low yield (<1013) shots on the National Ignition Facility. Recently, a comprehensive study of detector impulse responses revealed certain detectors with very fast and consistent impulse responses with a rise time of <50 ps, enabling low yield burn history measurements. At the current standoff of 50 cm, this measurement is possible with fast 14 MeV neutrons from deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion plasmas.

For the purpose of this study, four natural rock samples-namely, diorite, granodiorite, tonalite, and granite-are being investigated about their radiation attenuation. The elemental composition of the rocks was obtained through Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) which examines the microstructural and localized area elemental analyses of the four rock samples. A Monte Carlo simulation (MCNP) was used to determine and evaluate the investigated samples.
