چکیده
Abstract Tangential compact neutron emission spectrometer (CNES) based on the Cs 2 LiYCl 6 :Ce with 7 Li-enrichment (CLYC7) scintillator is newly installed in Large Helical Device (LHD). Measurement of energy spectrum was performed using CNES tangential neutral beam (NB) heated deuterium plasma discharges. The Doppler shift according to direction NB injection has been obtained. When fast ions moving away from CNES, lower shifted obtained, whereas upper obtained when toward CNES. almost consistent virgin deuterium-deuterium evaluated by simple two-body kinematic calculation.

The compact neutron spectrometer at ASDEX Upgrade.
The first neutron spectrometer of ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) was installed in November 2008. It is a compact neutron spectrometer (CNS) based on a BC501A liquid scintillating detector, which can simultaneously measure 2.45-MeV and 14-MeV neutrons emitted from deuterium (D) plasmas and γ radiation. The scintillating detector is coupled to a digital pulse shape discrimination data acquisition (DPSD) sys...

Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is known to be a promising and new cancer therapy which can kill tumor cells suppressing damage to normal tissues. Recently, accelerator based neutron sources (ABNS) for BNCT are under development especially in Japan. For characterization of the neutron field, we carried out the series study concerning thermal/epi-thermal neutron spectrometry especially for ...
متن کاملCompact thermal neutron sensors for moderator-based neutron spectrometers.
In the framework of the NESCOFI@BTF project of the Italian Institute of Nuclear Physics, different types of active thermal neutron sensors were studied by coupling semiconductor devices with a suitable radiator. The objective was to develop a detector of small dimensions with a proper sensitivity to use at different positions in a novel moderating assembly for neutron spectrometry. This work di...
متن کاملNeutron Dosimetry and Neutron Spectrum Unfolding Using Neural Networks
An artificial neural network has been designed to obtain the neutron spectra from the Bonner spheres spectrometer's count rates. The neural network was trained using 101 neutron spectra taken from IAEA's compilations. These include calibration, reference and operational neutron spectra whose energy distribution is different from UTA4 response matrix, therefore the spectra were converted from le...
