Neutron Capture and Neutron Halos
The connection between the neutron halo observed in light neutron rich nuclei and the neutron radiative capture process is outlined. We show how nuclear structure information such as spectroscopic factors and external components of the radial wave function of loosely bound states can be derived from the neutron capture cross section. The link between the direct radiative capture and the Coulomb...
متن کاملBoron Neutron Capture Therapy
A project aimed at the development of an accelerator facility devoted to Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is ongoing at the National Atomic Energy Commission of Argentina [1]. In a first stage of development, the accelerator will be capable of delivering proton or deuteron beams of 30 mA at about 1.4 MeV which is suitable for neutron production through the 9Be(d,n) reaction. In this context...
متن کاملNeutron Capture Gamma Rays ( Thermal Neutron
Detection of landmines using nuclear techniques has been studied extensively since the late 1940s. Nuclear techniques look at either a return radiation, which is characteristic of explosive components that are infrequently found in soil (e.g., nitrogen or carbon), or an intensity change of a noncharacteristic scattered radiation, which is a function of a parameter that differs between soil and ...
متن کامل10B Concentration, Phantom Size and Tumor Location Dependent Dose Enhancement and Neutron Spectra in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy
Background: The amount of average dose enhancement in tumor loaded with 10B may vary due to various factors in boron neutron capture therapy.Objective: This study aims to evaluate dose enhancement in tumor loaded with 10B under influence of various factors and investigate the dependence of this dose enhancement on neutron spectra changes.Material and Methods: In this simulation stud...
متن کاملAn investigation into the potential applicability of gel dosimeters for dosimetry in boron neutron capture therapy
Background: The aim of this work was to establish how well gel dosimeters performed, as substitutes for brain tissue compared with standard phantom materials such as water, polymethyl-methacrylate (or PMMA), A150 plastic and TE- liquid phantom material for dosimetry of neutron beams in boron neutron capture therapy. Materials and Methods: Thermal neutron fluence, photon dose and epithermal neu...
