Daniel S. Hussey, David L. Jacobson, Dusan Spernjak, Adam Weber, Rangachary Mukundan, Joseph Fairweather, Eric Brosha, John Davey, Jacob Spendelow, Rodney Borup
The water sorption of proton-exchange membranes (PEMs) was measured in situ using high-resolution neutron imaging in small-scale fuel-cell test sections. A detailed characterization of the measurement uncertainties and corrections associated with the

Average Soil Water Retention Curves Measured by Neutron Radiography

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel S. Hussey, David L. Jacobson, Chu-lin Cheng, Misun Kang, Juske Horita, sophie voisin, Hassina Bilheux, Warren Jeffery, Edward Perfect
Water retention curves are essential for understanding the hydrologic behavior of partially- saturated porous media and modeling flow transport processes within the vadose zone. In this paper we report direct measurements of the main drying and wetting

Blow-Down Calibration of a Large Ultrasonic Flow Meter

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Aaron Johnson, Eric Harman, Joey Boyd
Oil and gas production industries use large (diameter > 0.8 m) ultrasonic flow meters (USMs) to measure exhaust gas from flare stacks, emissions from smokestacks, flow of natural gas, etc. Since most flow laboratories do not have compressors with

Cold Neutron Radiation Does Effects on a 6 LiF:ZnS(Ag) Neutron Detector with Wavelenght Shifting Fibers and SiPM Photodectector

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Kevin NMN Pritchard, Daniel S. Hussey, A. Osovizky, Jeffrey B Ziegler, Louis Edward Binkley, Peter Tsai, Nancy Hadad, M. Jackson, C. Hurlbut, George M Baltic, Charles Majkrzak, Nicholas C. Maliszewskyj
A 6LiF:ZnS(Ag) based cold neutron detector with wavelength shifting (WLS) fibers and SiPM photodetector was developed at the NIST Center for Neutron Research for the CANDoR instrument (Chromatic Analysis Neutron Diffractometer or Reflectometer). To predict

Demonstration of focusing Wolter mirrors for neutron phase and magnetic imaging

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel S. Hussey, Han Wen, Huarui Wu, Thomas R. Gentile, Wangchun Chen, David L. Jacobson, Jacob LaManna, B. Khaykovich
Image-forming focusing mirrors were employed to demonstrate two different modalities of neutron imaging, phase imaging with a far-field interferometer, and magnetic-field imaging through the manipulation of the neutron beam polarization. For the phase

Demonstration of Small-Angle Neutron Scattering Measurements with a Nested Neutron-Focusing Supermirror Assembly

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Huarui Wu, Zhiyuan Wang, Yao Zhang, Wenbo Mo, Pulin Bai, Kun Song, Zhong Zhang, Zhanshan Wang, Daniel S. Hussey, Yun Liu, Zhe Wang, Xuewu Wang
Neutron-focusing mirrors with both a nested structure and supermirror coatings enable a large collecting area, and consequently a large neutron current gain for mirror-based instruments. A nested neutron-focusing supermirror assembly has been fabricated

Design of a neutron microscope based on Wolter mirrors

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel S. Hussey, B. Khaykovich, Jeremy C. Cook, David L. Jacobson, Jacob LaManna, Kiranmayee Kilaru, Brian Ramsey, M. V. Gubarev
The predominate geometry for a neutron imaging experiment is that of a pinhole camera. This is primarily due to the difficulty in focusing neutrons due to the weak refractive index, which is also strongly chromatic. Proof of concept experiments

Effects of Cathode Corrosion on Through-Plane Water Transport in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel S. Hussey, Joseph Fairweather, Dusan Spernjak, Adam Weber, David Harvey, Silvia Wessell, David L. Jacobson, Kateryna Artyushkova, Rangachary Mukundan, Rodney Borup
The corrosion of carbon in the electrode supports of proton-exchange-membrane fuel cells leads to electrode collapse, reduced active catalyst area, and increased surface hydrophilicity. While these effects have been linked to performance degradation over

Far-field interference of a neutron white beam and the applications to noninvasive phase-contrast imaging

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Michael G. Huber, Daniel S. Hussey, Muhammad D. Arif, David L. Jacobson, Jacob LaManna, Wakana Ueno, Han Wen, Dmitry Pushin, Dusan Sarenac, David Cory, Houxun Miao, Takenao Shinohara, Joseph Parker
The phenomenon of interference plays a crucial role in the field of precision measurement science. Waveparticle duality has expanded the well-known interference effects of electromagnetic waves to massive particles. The majority of the wave-particle

High-resolution neutron depolarization microscopy of the ferromagnetic transitions inNi3Al and HgCr2Se4 under pressure

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel S. Hussey, Muhammad Abir, B. Khaykovich, C. Pfleiderer, Pau Jorba, Marc Seifert, Michael Schulz
We performed spatially resolved imaging of ferromagnetic transitions in Ni3Al and HgCr2Se4 crystals. These neutron depolarization measurements discovered bulk magnetic inhomogeneities in the ferromagnetic transition temperature with the spatial resolution

Author(s)
Daniel S. Hussey, Wanchuck Woo, Jongyul Kim
Micrometer to centimeter scale analyses of the crystalline phase volume fractions in a trip- assisted duplex stainless steel were performed as a function strain using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), in situ neutron diffraction, and energy

A novel neutron far field interferometer is explored for sub-micron porosity detection in laser sintered SS316 test objects. The results shown are images and volumes of the first quantitative neutron dark-field tomography at various autocorrelation lengths

Predicting anomalous quantum confinement effect in van der Waals materials

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Francesca Tavazza, Kamal Choudhary
Materials with van der Waals bonding are known to exhibit a quantum confinement effect, in which the electronic band gap of the three-dimensional realization of a material is lower than that of its two-dimensional (2D) counterpart. However, the possibility
