The Spallation Target for the Ultra Cold Neutron Source Ucn
A source of ultra cold neutrons, based on the spallation process is under construction at PSI. With the help of a fast kicker the whole ~1 MW proton beam (590 MeV, 2 mA) from the accelerator will be switched onto the UCN spallation target for approximately 8 seconds every 15 minutes. The spallation neutrons are thermalized in a large heavywater moderator at room temperature and further cooled i...
متن کاملNeutron Imaging at Spallation Neutron Sources
Neutron imaging is a powerful method for non-destructive investigations where the high penetration through metals and the high contrast for hydrogenous materials is exploited in particular. The complementary to X-ray studies is a clever alternative in many cases of scientific and industrial applications. Reactor based neutron sources are becoming less available, caused by the shutdown of aged f...
متن کاملNeutron Spallation Studies for an Accelerator Driven Subcritical Reactor
Nuclear power production can benefit from the development of more comprehensive alternatives for dealing with long-term radioactive waste. One such alternative is an accelerator-driven subcritical reactor (ADSR) which has been proposed for both energy production and for burning radioactive waste. Here we investigate the effects of the size of the ADSR spallation target on the total neutron yiel...
متن کاملLinac-driven Spallation-neutron Source*
Strong interest has arisen in accelerator-driven spallationneutron sources that surpass existing facilities (such as ISIS at Rutherford or LANSCE at Los Alamos) by more than an order of magnitude in beam power delivered to the spallation target. The approach chosen by Los Alamos (as well as the European Spallation Source) provides the full beam energy by acceleration in a linac as opposed to pr...
متن کاملThe Spallation Neutron Source Project
The SNS is a "joint-venture" project of five DOE National Laboratories, aimed at building the world's most powerful accelerator-based pulse spallation source. At its planned 2 MW operation, it will produce neutron fluxes at least a factor of ten greater than Rutherford Appleton Laboratory’s ISIS, currently the world’s leading spallation source. The current design of the SNS, shown in Figure 1, ...
