  • Abstract
    The results of experiments and calculations for a solid-deuterium UCN source are presented. It was experimentally shown that the UCN yield is increased by a factor 3 at the solidification of liquid deuterium and a factor 10 at a temperature 10 K, with respect to the liquid phase. The gain factor for UCN yield with respect to hydrogen gas or deuterium gas at room temperature is equal to 1230.
