MoNA at the Fall APS DNP Meeting, October 2024
A total of nine MoNA Collaboration members participated in the Fall 2024 meeting of the American Physical Society's Division of Nuclear Physics (DNP), which took place October 7-10 2024 at the Hilton Boston Park Plaza in Boston, MA.
Contributed talks and posters covered a wide range of topics, including development of the next generation neutron detector (NGn), progress on machine-learning applied to multi-neutron filtering, neutron scattering observations at LANSCE, including new inelastic n-C scattering cross sections determined at LANSCE using a diamond detector as active target, development of a liquid hydrogen target and vertex tracker for invariant mass measurements at FRIB, and investigation of neutron-rich pre-fragment distributions in fragmentation reactions.
