Monte Carlo calculation of the effective neutron generation time
The Monte Carlo calculation of the effective (i.e. adjoint weighted) neutron generation time Keff, especially for continuous energy simulations, is not straightforward nor standard in Monte Carlo codes. The use of the non-adjoint weighted neutron generation time K (standard in most Monte Carlo codes) as an approximation of the effective one can lead to a serious bias. We show here that the diff...
متن کاملThe study of neutron interactions with soft tissue using Monte Carlo simulation using the source PF
The most important part of neutron therapy treatment (NCT1) is to achieve a beam of neutrons with suitable energy and intensity, as well as the least pollution and damage. In this study, in order to correct the neutron spectrum from D-D fusion and its use in neutron therapy, a set of different materials which are called the Beam Shaping Assembly (BSA) was placed in the direction of energy 2.45 ...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Calculation for the neutron-rich Ca isotopes
We computed ground-state energies of calcium isotopes from 42Ca to 48Ca by means of the Auxiliary Field Diffusion Monte Carlo (AFDMC) method. Calculations were performed by replacing the 40Ca core with a mean-field self consistent potential computed using Skyrme interaction. The energy of the external neutrons is computed by projecting the ground-state from a wave function built with the single...

متن کاملThe influence of neutron contamination on pacemaker in photon beam radiotherapy by LINAC using the Monte Carlo method
Introduction: In radiation therapy with high-energy photon beams (E > 7 MeV) neutrons are generated mainly in LINACs head thorough (γ, n) interactions. These neutrons affect the shielding requirements in radiation therapy rooms. According to the protocol TG-34, photon absorbed dose of 10Gy can cause permanent damage to the pacemaker and the dose of 2Gy can make minor changes in...
