Description

A hydrogen cold neutron source has been constructed allowing wide variation of density, temperature and ortho-hydrogen concentration. The maximum cold neutron flux was obtained with pararich hydrogen at the lowest temperature attained. Substitution of normal hydrogen by parahydrogen doubled the cold neutron flux. The effect of density and orthoconcentration is explained qualitatively. (author)
