These results show that the detector system is an accurate device for measuring parameters like particle size, concentration, and scattering cross-section [C.
In the geometric domain, the scattering cross-section increased with the square of the frequency, in contrast to the frequency to the fourth power in the Rayleigh domain.
Superfluid helium does not support the formation of bubbles within the target chambers, and more importantly, the small-angle neutron scattering cross-section of superfluid helium is smaller than normal liquid helium by a factor of 5 [11,12].
