We have performed an evaluation of cross sections on C for both neutron and proton with energies between 20 MeV and 3 GeV. The evaluation is based on measured data as well as predictions from nuclear model calculations and some systematics. The results are compared with available experimental data and the LA150 evaluation. Thick target neutron production spectra for proton incident on carbon ar...

The chemical evolution of nascent quark matter core in a newborn compact neutron star is studied in presence of a strong magnetic field. The effective rate of strange quark production in degenerate quark matter core in presence of strong magnetic fields is obtained. The investigations show that in presence of strong magnetic fields a quark matter core becomes energetically unstable and hence a ...

A two-step reaction scheme for the production of extremely neutron-rich radioactive beams, fission followed by cold fragmentation, is considered. The cross sections of the second step, the cold fragmentation of neutron-rich fission fragments, are estimated with different computer codes. Discrepancies between an empirical systematics and nuclear-reaction codes are found. PACS: 25.40.Sc Spallatio...

in the present work, we have obtained the equation of state for neutron star matter considering the in uence of the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic spin state. we have also investigated the structure of neutron stars. according to our results, the spin asymmetry stiens the equation of state and leads to high mass for the neutron star.

background: in neutron interaction with matter and reduction of neutron energy due to multiple scatterings to the thermal energy range, increasing the probability of thermal neutron capture by neutron captures makes dose enhancement in the tumors loaded with these materials.   objective: the purpose of this study is to evaluate dose distribution in the presence of  10 b ,  157 gd  and  33 s  ne...

Background: Prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) is known as a non-invasive technique capable of measuring elemental concentration in voluminous samples in a short period of time. Also it is a valuable diagnostic tool for total body elemental measurements. 252Cf and 241Am-Be sources which are usually used in this method, generate not only neutrons, but also emit high-energy and unwa...

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 neut...
