  2. Neutron reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_reflector

    The decrease in the critical size of core required is known as the reflector savings. Neutron reflectors reduce neutron leakage, i.e., to reduce the neutron fluence on a reactor pressure vessel. Neutron reflectors reduce a coolant flow bypass of a core. Neutron reflectors serve as a thermal and radiation shield of a reactor core.

    A neutron supermirror is a highly polished, layered material used to reflect neutron beams. Supermirrors are a special case of multi-layer neutron reflectors with varying layer thicknesses. [1] The first neutron supermirror concept was proposed by Ferenc Mezei, [2] inspired by earlier work with X-rays.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_reflectometry

    The reflection is usually described in terms of a momentum transfer vector, denoted , which describes the change in momentum of a neutron after reflecting from the material. Conventionally the z {\displaystyle z} direction is defined to be the direction normal to the surface, and for specular reflection, the scattering vector has only a z ...
