Utilizing (p,d) and (p,t) Reactions to Obtain (n,f) Cross Sections in Uranium Nuclei Via the Surrogate-Ratio Method
Utilizing (p,d) and (p,t) reactions to obtain (n, f) cross sections in uranium nuclei via the surrogate-ratio method The surrogate ratio method has been tested for (p, d) and (p, t) reactions on uranium nuclei. 236 U and 238 U targets were bombarded with 28-MeV protons and the light ion recoils and fission fragments were detected using the Silicon Telescope Array for Reaction Studies detector a...
متن کاملSurrogate Measurement of the 238Pu(n,f) Cross Section
The neutron-induced fission cross section of 238 Pu was determined using the surrogate ratio method. The (n,f) cross section over an equivalent neutron energy range 5–20 MeV was deduced from inelastic α-induced fission reactions on 239 Pu, with 235 U(α, α f) and 236 U(α, α f) used as references. These reference reactions reflect 234 U(n,f) and 235 U(n,f) yields, respectively. The deduced 238 Pu...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of Photoneutron Source by MCNPX Monte Carlo Code for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy
Introduction Electron linear accelerator (LINAC) can be used for neutron production in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). BNCT is an external radiotherapeutic method for the treatment of some cancers. In this study, Varian 2300 C/D LINAC was simulated as an electron accelerator-based photoneutron source to provide a suitable neutron flux for BNCT. Materials and Methods Photoneutron sources w...
متن کاملS - factors and reaction rates of ( p , n ) - reactions on 117 Sn , 118 Sn , 122 Sn , and 124
Astrophysical S-factors and reaction rates were derived from available cross sections of (p,n)-reactions on 117Sn, 118Sn, 122Sn, and 124Sn isotopes at incident proton energies up to 9MeV. The statistical theory predictions of the observable quantities are ∼2 times smaller at near threshold energies and have better agreement at higher energies. A large number of nuclear data primarily concerning...
متن کاملMeasurement of reaction cross-sections for Y at average neutron energies of 7.24-24.83 MeV
We measured neutron-induced reaction cross-sections for Y(n,γ)Y and Y(n,α)Rb reactions with the average neutron energy region from 7.45 to 24.83 MeV by an activation and off-line γ-ray spectrometric technique using the MC-50 Cyclotron at Korea Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences. The neutron-induced reaction cross-sections of Y as a function of neutron energy were taken from the TEND...
