  • The Multi-Blade Boron-10-based neutron detector performance using a focusing reflectometer
    2020
    Co-Authors: Mauri G., Christensen M. J., Glavic A., Lai C. C., Laloni A., Messi F., Olsson A. Lindh, Robinson L., Stahn J.
    Abstract:

    The Multi-Blade is a Boron-10-based neutron detector designed for neutron Reflectometers and developed for the two instruments (Estia and FREIA) planned for the European Spallation Source in Sweden. A reflectometry demonstrator has been installed at the AMOR reflectometer at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI - Switzerland). The setup exploits the Selene guide concept and it can be considered a scaled-down demonstrator of Estia. The results of these tests are discussed. It will be shown how the characteristics of the Multi-Blade detector are features that allow the focusing reflectometry operation mode. Additionally the performance of the Multi-Blade, in terms of rate capability, exceeds current state-of-the-art technology. The improvements with respect to the previous prototypes are also highlighted; from background considerations to the linear and angular uniformity response of the detector.Comment: 32 pages, 28 figure

  • quantifying and correcting for clay content effects on soil water measurement by Reflectometers
    2019
    Co-Authors: Jasreman Singh, Daran R Rudnick, Suat Irmak, Humberto Blancocanqui
    Abstract:

    Abstract The presence of clay particles increases the specific surface area of a soil and can affect the calibration of electromagnetic soil water sensors including Reflectometers. To quantify and correct for this effect in two relatively new Reflectometers, three TDR315 and three CS655 sensors were installed in each of five soils with clay content ranging from 5 to 49%. As the soils were dried in a temperature controlled room, sensor reported soil volumetric water content (θv) according to the factory calibration was compared against reference θv determined by weighing the soils. Sensor reported θv was similar to reference θv in the sand soil (root mean square difference (RMSD) 0.93) for both sensors. By estimating calibration coefficients based on clay content alone to recalculate sensor θv from sensor reported apparent relative permittivity, RMSD from reference θv was reduced by approximately 36% for both sensors as compared with using the factory calibration. Applying the same procedure to independent literature data tended to improve θv accuracy of both sensors increasingly as clay content increased above 20%. The findings suggest that a simple, user-friendly correction for clay content effects may provide initial practical improvement over the factory calibration of a reflectometer in clayey soils.
