Neutron bombardment of C60and C70fullerenes: A spectroscopic and calorimetric study
C60 and C70 fullerenes were neutron-bombarded to an integral dose of 3.28×1016 n cm−2. After the neutron treatment the trichloromethane soluble fraction was...
Neutron bombardment of lithium bis(oxalato) borate: LiBOB
Lithium bis(oxalato) borate (LiBOB) was neutron bombarded with a flux of 2.40 × 1012 n cm−2 s−1 for 1, 2, 3 and 4 h. The neutron damaged LiBOB was studied by FT...
Neutron bombardment of single wall carbon nanohorn (SWCNH): DSC determination of the stored Wigner-Szilard energy
Single wall carbon nanohorn (SWCNH) were neutron-bombarded to a dose of 3.28 x 10(16) n/cm(2). The Wigner or stored energy was determined by a differential...
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) was neutron damaged at an integral flux of 2.40 × 1012 n cm−2 s−1 for 1, 2, 3 and 4 h. The h-BN samples undergo a transition from...
Neutron decay anomaly, neutron stars, and dark matter
The discrepancies in different measurements of the lifetime of isolated neutrons could be resolved by considering an extra neutron decay channel into dark...
Neutron star mass estimates from gamma-ray eclipses in spider millisecond pulsar binaries
Reliable neutron star mass measurements are key to determining the equation of state of cold nuclear matter, but such measurements are rare. Black widows and...
Neutron-capture Element Abundances in Magellanic Cloud Planetary Nebulae
We present near-infrared spectra of 10 planetary nebulae (PNe) in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC), acquired with the FIRE and GNIRS...
Neutron-capture element abundances in the planetary nebula NGC 5315 from deep optical and near-infrared spectrophotometry★†
We analyse the chemical composition of the planetary nebula (PN) NGC 5315, through high-resolution (R ∼ 40000) optical spectroscopy with Ultraviolet-Visual...
