Cu covariance study including impacts on past (and future) Zeus experiments

Abstract

This presentation covers why we should care about Cu nuclear data. It also covers the current state of Cu63 and Cu65 covariances and the Impact on specific critical experiments.

Absolute Efficiency Characterization of Neutron Detectors within Radioisotope Identification Devices [Slides]

Some Radioisotope Identification Devices (RIIDs) have a low efficiency neutron detector that can provide a neutron singles counting rate along with the primary gamma spectra that can be used to identify a radioisotope. When we know absolute efficiency, other characteristics of a radioisotope can be estimated such as mass or source strength when accompanied by the identity of the isotope and other observable variables. This study focuses on characterizing and comparing the absolute neutron efficiencies of some commonly used RIIDs: the ORTEC Detective X, ORTEC RADEAGLET-R, and FLIR IDentifinder 2.
