Very Cold Neutrons represent a natural next step beyond the widely deployed cold neutron sources. As yet, there has been no practical VCN sources demonstrated to make a brighter VCN beam than simply using the low energy tail of a conventional cold moderator. In this talk I will summarize the development efforts and needs leading to practical VCN sources and the unique opportunity for Compact...
The Spallation Physics Group at the European Spallation Source (ESS) conducts radiation transport simulations to support the facility's design and licensing processes. These simulations integrate geometric system representations with nuclear data to analyze radiation interactions and produce observables such as dose maps and detector responses. Our work has led to the development of advanced...
