Dr. OHSHITA Hidetoshi of the Neutron Instrumentation Section Receives the KEK Technology Award
Dr. OHSHITA Hidetoshi of the Neutron Instrumentation Section received the KEK Technology Award for his presentation 'Precise Measurement of Neutron Counts with Nitrogen Gas-Filled Neutron Beam Monitors at the MLF in J-PARC" and an award ceremony and lecture to mark the occasion were held on February 17th.
Dr. OHSHITA proposed a method for monitoring the neutrons incident on the neutron instruments constructed at MLF as a steady-state absolute quantity and started its operation in actual experiments. The measured absolute neutron flux is consistent with previous studies and is expected to be used for the analysis of experimental data and long-term monitoring of the neutron source condition.
On receiving the award, Dr. OHSHITA expressed his gratitude, saying, "I would like to thank everyone involved for their support in helping me to receive this award. I am also very happy that the people who have helped me so far are even more pleased than I am to receive this award." He commented with a smile.
