Scattered neutrons which occur as a result of the collision between cosmic rays and the Earth surface, lose their energy when they come into contact with hydrogen. The soil moisture of a region can be determined with high success by counting these neutrons with reduced energy. Cosmic ray neutron probe (CRNP) works using this principle, it was first tested in Turkey at Cakit basin and the results are presented in this study. CRNP can continuously provide soil moisture information for an area with a diameter of approximately 670 meters, thus, constitutes an important alternative for hydrological studies that require soil moisture data with high spatial and temporal resolution. Between 11 November 2016 and 01 July 2019, regular hourly data were obtained with CRNP, and it was determined that the data has very consistent results with the time domain reflectometer (TDR) located in the study area. NAM, which is a lumped conceptual model, helps determining the effects of hydrological variables on the discharge outputs. In this study, soil moisture data obtained with CRNP were used to improve the NAM conceptual model and Kling-Gupta Efficiency score for the discharge data of Cakit Basin increased from 0.56(Calibration) and 0.42(Validation) to 0.81(Calibration) and 0.64(Validation). Similar improvements were noted for most of the statistical measures for both Cakit Basin and Darbogaz sub-basin.

Dünya uzaydan gelen kozmik ışın radyasyonuna sürekli olarak maruz kalmaktadır. Dünyanın manyetik alanı ve atmosferi bu ışınlara karşı doğal bir koruma sağlamaktadır. Dünyanın manyetik alanına dik gelen yüklü kozmik ışınların, Lorentz kuvveti nedeniyle bükülerek dünyaya girmeleri zorlaşır. Kutuplarda ise manyetik alana paralel gelen ışınlar bir etkiye maruz kalmadan atmosfere girerler. Atmosfere giren parçacıklar Oksijen ve Azot molekülleri ile çarpışarak parçacık yağmurları oluşturur ve muon, nötron gibi pa...

Determining the asymmetry in supernova explosions by studying the radial velocities of OB runaway stars
Dinçel, Baha; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; Ankay, Aşkın; Department of Physics (2012)
Understanding the asymmetry in core collapse supernova explosions is pointed out by various astrophysicists as it is the key factor in determining the observational properties of the pulsars. The initial kick given by the ex- plosion to the pulsar affects its spin period and space velocity. Up to now, although the observations do not show a direct relation between the observational features of the pulsar and its space velocity, they show a clear relation between the spin period and the magnetic field streng...
Performance comparison of filtering methods on modelling and forecasting total precipitation amount
Ünal, Ecem; Yozgatlıgil, Ceylan; Department of Statistics (2019)
The performance of condensed water vapour in the atmosphere observed as precipitation on the earth surface with the consequence of gravity. It is hard to observe and measure the amount and concentration of total precipitation with its all types changing over time. This difficulty can be explained by the association between the changing amount of precipitation and the variability in the climate with its both causes and consequences. As a result of these factors, modelling and forecasting of monthly total pre...
Quantal description of spinodal instabilities in a symmetric nuclear matter
Acar Çakırca, Fatma; Yılmaz, Osman; Ayık, Şakir; Department of Physics (2017)
Spinodal instability mechanism and early development of density fluctuations for asymmetric hot nuclear matter produced in heavy-ion collisions are investigated in non-relativistic and relativistic stochastic mean-field approaches. In relativistic approach, a stochastic extension of the relativistic mean-field approximation based on non-linear Walecka model employed in a quantal framework. The mediator rho meson is added to the Walecka model in order to investigate the isospin dependence of the system. The gro...
