Shielding design in neutron activation experiment system based on D-T neutron tube
نویسندگان
چکیده
The deuterium-tritium neutron generator should be fully shielded for the safety of operators participating in experiments since D-T is commonly used activation experiments. In this study, MCNP5 code was to simulate shielding effect thermalization device previously designed by our group with Pb and boron-containing polyethylene as material. dose rate outside previous can not meet requirement, so a concrete wall needed between operators. Two models are walls. One model that experimental same room, another one there an L-shaped them. both models, less than 5 ?Svh-1.

Shielding studies on a total-body neutron activation facility
Background: Prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) is known as a non-invasive technique capable of measuring elemental concentration in voluminous samples in a short period of time. Also it is a valuable diagnostic tool for total body elemental measurements. 252Cf and 241Am-Be sources which are usually used in this method, generate not only neutrons, but also emit high-energy and unwa...

متن کاملNeutron Tube Design Study for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy Application
Radio-frequency (RF) driven ion sources are being developed in Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) for sealed-accelerator-tube neutron generator application. By using a 5-cm-diameter RF-driven multicusp source H yields over 95% have been achieved. These experimental findings will enable one to develop compact neutron generators based on the D-D or D-T fusion reactions. In this new neut...
