Neutron Transport Calculations Using Monte-Carlo Methods
Fusion reactions from direct-drive inertial confinement fusion experiments at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) release large amounts of stored nuclear energy. Most of it is given off as energetic neutrons. Plastic scintillators are used as detectors for these neutrons. The neutrons that interact with the scintillator produce photons that are recorded using a photomultiplier tube on a f...
متن کاملThe influence of neutron contamination on pacemaker in photon beam radiotherapy by LINAC using the Monte Carlo method
Introduction: In radiation therapy with high-energy photon beams (E > 7 MeV) neutrons are generated mainly in LINACs head thorough (γ, n) interactions. These neutrons affect the shielding requirements in radiation therapy rooms. According to the protocol TG-34, photon absorbed dose of 10Gy can cause permanent damage to the pacemaker and the dose of 2Gy can make minor changes in...

In radiation therapy with high-energy photon beams (E > 10 MV) neutrons are generated mainly in LINACs head thorough (γ,n) interactions. These neutrons affect the shielding requirements in radiation therapy rooms. According to the AAPMTG-34 report, photon absorbed dose of 10Gy can cause permanent damage to the pacemaker and the dose of 2Gy can make minor changes in the functioning of the pac...
متن کاملThe study of neutron interactions with soft tissue using Monte Carlo simulation using the source PF
The most important part of neutron therapy treatment (NCT1) is to achieve a beam of neutrons with suitable energy and intensity, as well as the least pollution and damage. In this study, in order to correct the neutron spectrum from D-D fusion and its use in neutron therapy, a set of different materials which are called the Beam Shaping Assembly (BSA) was placed in the direction of energy 2.45 ...
