Characterization of Am-Be neutron source based PGNAA setup using aqueous solutions of Chlorine and Boron
Background: A 5 Ci 241Am-Be radio isotopic neutron source-based prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) setup was designed for estimation of minimum detectable concentration (MDC) of elements in aqueous solutions. Materials and Methods: Performance variables related to PGNAA setup (source to sample distance, sample to detector distance and volume of water) were optimized experimentally...
متن کاملAn Optimum Landmine Detection System Using Polyethylene Moderator and 241Am-Be as a Neutron Source
In this paper an optimized moderating structure using an 241Am-Be neutron source for detecting landmines (using the PGNAA method) has been investigated by experiment. The experimental set up composed of a Pb cylindrical shell enclosing the neutron source, embedded in a fixed size High-density polyethylene (HDPe) cylinder with the variable thickness of the upper and lower moderator. The optimizi...
متن کاملDesigning an Am-Be miniature neutron source
Background: Miniature neutron sources with high neutron flux have abundant applications in medicine, industry and researches. The most important general characteristic of miniature neutron sources is their diameter which is 3mm in average. In this research, we have surveyed and designed an Am-Be miniature neutron source fabrication. Materials and Methods: This investigation resulted in creation...
متن کاملFlux calculation in LSNAA using an 241Am–Be source
The CITATION code based on neutron diffusion theory is used for flux calculation inside voluminous sample in prompt gamma activation analysis with an isotopic neutron source (241Am–Be). The code used the specific parameters related to energy spectrum source, irradiation system materials (shielding, reflector, etc.), geometry and elemental composition of the sample. The flux distribution (therma...
متن کاملstudy of neutron yield for the 241am9be source
beryllium chemical combination has a considerable effect on the design and fabrication of the241am9be neutron source. in this investigation the beryllium combinations were studied as a generator ofneutrons with various mass percentage, and the neutron yields were also calculated using the results of thealice and srim codes calculations per unit incident charge. the neutron yields of beryllium ...
