Description

Well-characterized neutron irradiation is an indispensable tool in the quest to understand characteristic defects produced in minerals by coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering and hypothetical dark matter particles. This talk will introduce and discuss opportunities for high-fidelity, quantifiable, and repeatable neutron irradiations at a wide range of energy scales. Practical sources accessible to this research program will be discussed, along with supporting simulations and protocols for their use.

Do you plan to give the talk in person? Yes
