Implementation of a low-activation Au-In-Cd decoupler into the J-PARC 1 MW short pulsed spallation neutron source

A silver-indium-cadmium (Ag-In-Cd, or AIC) alloy with a 1 eV high neutron cut-off energy was originaly developed as a decoupler to provide a narrow neutron pulse width with a short tail for the J-PARC 1-MW short-pulsed spallation neutron source. As a result of later studies, gold (Au) was chosen as...
