Experimental study of a solid-deuterium source of ultracold neutrons
- 1. St. Petersburg Inst. of Nuclear Physics, Gatchina (Russian Federation)
Description
The results of experimental studies of the yield of ultracold neutrons (UCN) from solid deuterium, which were performed on a model source in the WWR-M reactor at the St. Petersburg Institute of Nuclear Physics, are reported. The temperature dependent gain factor in the UCN yield from solid deuterium at 13-14 K relative to the UCN yield from a gaseous state at room temperature is equal to 1230 and it is 550 at solid-deuterium temperature of 18.7 K (triple point).
