Experimental and theoretical total neutron scattering cross-section of water confined in silica microspheres
- 1. Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, 87545 NM (United States)
Description
In the search for moderator materials encapsulated materials have been discussed, but very little is known regarding the effect of encapsulation on neutron moderation properties. As a first step toward a better understanding, we present the measured total neutron cross-section of water confined in silica microspheres and compare the measured data to the predicted theoretical cross-section.
