TL;DR: The characteristics of a lead-slowing-down spectrometer (LSDS) installed at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) are presented in this article.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Compton scattering NCS technique at epithermal neutron energies 10.200 eV to calculate the cross-section of H2O and D2O in the 40 keV range.

TL;DR: In this article, an array of proton recoil detectors surrounding a scattering sample, which is struck by a beam of neutrons, are analyzed using a state of the art digital data acquisition system, and these measurements are compared with the expected detector response based on Monte Carlo simulation of the scattering experiment using existing nuclear data evaluations.

TL;DR: In this article, the growth and characterization of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and its use for solid-state thermal neutron detection were reported. But, the hBN epilayers were grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on sapphire substrates at a temperature of 1350 C. X-ray diffraction peak from the (002) hBN plane at 2theta angle of 26.7 deg exhibited the c-lattice constant of 6.66 A for these films.

TL;DR: In this article, an error analysis was performed on the measured capture cross-section and the error was minimized with respect to the experimental time split of the capture, background and incident neutron rates.
