چکیده
A 14 MeV neutron generator described in this paper.Neutrons are produced in D-T, D-D,T-T reactions. The production of 14 MeV neutrons from DD neutrons generator resulting from tritium build up from d(d,p)t reaction in the target under 30mA, 300 KeV deuteron beam, bombarding a water-cooled, rotating target, size of beam spot on target is 1.8 cm is obtained. An estimate of the capital cost 14 MeV neutron generators for radioisotope production.

Neutron Generators Developed at Lbnl for Homeland Security and Imaging Applications*
The Plasma and Ion Source Technology Group at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has developed various types of advanced D-D (neutron energy 2.5 MeV), D-T (14 MeV) and T-T (0–9 MeV) neutron generators for wide range of applications. These applications include medical (Boron Neutron Capture Therapy), homeland security (Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis, Fast Neutron Activation Analysis and Pul...
متن کاملResponse of LaBr3(Ce) scintillators to 2.5 MeV fusion neutrons.
Measurements of the response of LaBr3(Ce) to 2.5 MeV neutrons have been carried out at the Frascati Neutron Generator and at tokamak facilities with deuterium plasmas. The observed spectrum has been interpreted by means of a Monte Carlo model. It is found that the main contributor to the measured response is neutron inelastic scattering on (79)Br, (81)Br, and (139)La. An extrapolation of the co...

The compact neutron generator MP320 (Thermo Scientific Inc.) operating on the principle of a deuterium-tritium reaction was tested before its planned application as the neutron source for the purpose of Fast Neutron Activation Analysis applications. Plates made from Al, Fe, Sn and Si were irradiated by a 14 MeV neutron beam and typical neutron induced reactions were identified. Abstrakt Kompakt...
متن کاملPFC / JA - 93 - 17 14 MeV Neutron Yields from D - T Operation of the MIT Cockcroft
As part of our fusion product-diagnostic development program, we have begun a series of experiments with 14 MeV neutrons generated in a Cockcroft-Walton accelerator. Two different detectors have been used to measure the neutron yield: a silicon SBD and a Cu foil. The energy of the emitted neutrons has been determined by using two spectrometers: the SBD and a 3 He proportional counter. The react...
متن کاملNeutron generator at Hiroshima University for use in radiobiology study.
A neutron generator (HIRRAC) for use in radiobiology study has been constructed at the Research Institute for Radiation Biology and Medicine, Hiroshima University (RIRBM). Monoenergetic neutrons of which energy is less than 1.3 MeV are generated by the 7Li(p,n)7 Be reaction at proton energies up to 3 MeV. The protons are accelerated by a Schenkel-type-accelerator and are bombared onto the 7Li-t...
