Energy response for high-energy neutrons of multi-functional
We have developed a small, light, and multi-functional electronic personal dosimeter (EPD) using four semiconductor radiation detectors for dose monitoring of workers at nuclear power plants and high-energy accelerator facilities. This dosimeter is about 103 x 55 x 15 mm in size and approximately 110 g in weight, and capable of measuring gamma-ray and neutron doses in Hp(10), and beta-ray dose ...
متن کاملNeutrons and Neutron Generators
This article was originally intended as a brief introduction to the article by Richard Hull on the Farnsworth/Hirsch “fusor.” However, as there has been some interest by a number of subscribers in neutron generators, I decided to provide a somewhat more lengthy tutorial on the reactions that produce neutrons, some practical applications of neutrons, and a few of the various types of devices tha...
متن کاملDesign of Active-Type Personal Dosemeter for High-Energy Neutrons
In order to design an active-type personal dosemeter having sufficient sensitivity to high-energy neutrons up to 100 MeV, the characteristic response of several types of silicon (Si) semiconductor detectors has been investigated experimentally and theoretically. At first, the response of each detector has been checked to protons accelerated by a Van de Graff accelerator installed at Kobe Univer...
متن کاملActivation Measurements for Thermal Neutrons
The neutron energy spectrum from the atomic bomb consisted of a range of energies from thermal to fast neutrons. Fast neutrons contribute a larger dose to the human body than lowenergy neutrons per unit flux. The evaluation of the fast neutron component has been performed based on analyses of P (>3 MeV) activity measured immediately after the Hiroshima bomb and Ni (>2 MeV), which has a much lon...
متن کاملThermal conductivity of neutrons in neutron star cores
The diffusive thermal conductivity of neutrons in dense matter [ρ ∼ (1−8)×10 g cm] of neutron star cores is calculated. The contribution from neutron–neutron and neutron–proton collisions is taken into account. We use the transition probabilities calculated for symmetric dense nucleon matter on the basis of the Dirac– Brueckner approach to the in-medium effects and the Bonn model of bare nucleo...
