Collimator Design for Neutron Radiography Systems Using a Reactor Flux
This paper is aimed to investigate the design of an optimized neutron radiography system that utilizes the flux of a reactor. Moderation, collimation aspects are studied. A Monte Carlo code, MCNP4C, was utilized to achieve a maximum and more homogenous neutron flux in the collimator outlet next to the image plane, taking into account geometric characteristics. It was possible to obtain a normal...
متن کاملNeutron flux Measurement at Tapiro fast reactor for APD’s Irradiation fluence evaluation
The Avalanche Photodiodes (APD) were chosen as photon sensors for the barrel region of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter. The LHC will be a hard environment for what concerns the radiation levels in the detectors. The most relevant damage on APDs is caused by neutrons that produce an increase in the dark current of these devices. In the CMS-ECAL collaboration a big effort was indeed done to u...
متن کاملReconstruction of the Neutron Flux in a Slab Reactor
In this electronic article we use the one-dimensional multigroup neutron diffusion equation to reconstruct the neutron flux in a slab reactor from the nuclear parameters of the reactor, boundary and symmetry condition, initial flux and . The diffusion equation was solved analytically for one single homogeneous fuel region and for two regions considering fuel and reflector. To validate the metho...
