In this study, the neutron and gamma doses in the dry channel and in the internal irradiation site of the Miniature Neutron Source research reactor (MNSR) has been calculated and measured. The MNSR reactor is a light water reactor with a maximum power of 30 kW and equipped with various irradiation facilities, including five irradiated sites, five irradiation sites and a dry channel. The interna...
In this paper, we describe the performance of the Los Alamos spallation-driven solid-deuterium ultra-cold neutron (UCN) source. Measurements of the cold neutron flux, the very low energy neutron production rate, and the UCN rates and density at the exit from the biological shield are presented and compared to Monte Carlo predictions. The cold neutron rates compare well with predictions from the...
The present status of neutron beam production techniques above 20 MeV is discussed. Presently, two main methods are used; white beams and quasi-monoenergetic beams. The performances of these two techniques are discussed, as well as the use of such facilities for measurements of nuclear data for fundamental and applied research. Recently, two novel ideas on how to produce extremely intense neutr...
The distribution of the count rate of neutrons (per second) near the Earth’s surface for two directions: towards the Earth and away from it, is studied using the experimental data, obtained in Moscow during 1996. The analysis shows that the mathematical approximation of the neutron count rate distribution can be described by a sum of two functions: a Poison distribution and a log-normal distrib...
Radiation sensitive polymer gels are among the most promising three-dimensional dose verification tools developed to date. Polymer gel dosimeter known by the acronym MAGIC has been tested for evaluation of its use in boron neutron capture (BNCT) dosimetry. We irradiated a large (diameter 10 cm, length 20 cm) cylindrical gel phantom in the epithermal neutron beam of the Finnish BNCT facility at ...
The cosmogenic neutron yield Yn characterizes the matter ability to produce neutrons under the effect of cosmic ray muons with spectrum and average energy corresponding to an observation depth. The yield is the basic characteristic of cosmogenic neutrons. The neutron production rate and neutron flux both are derivatives of the yield. The constancy of the exponents α and β in the known dependenc...
This paper investigates whether a fusion power plant could be designed to be passively proliferation-proof. Even low neutron production rates enable fissile-fuel breeding, so such a fusion reactor must burn neutron-lean fuels. To burn these fuels economically requires a highpower-density fusion concept, and a D-He field-reversed configuration will be analyzed here. The paper discusses physics a...
This chapter gives a short introduction into neutron scattering instrumentation to allow the non-specialist reader to acquire the basics of the method necessary to understand the technical aspects in the topical articles. The idea is not to go into details but to elaborate on the principles as general as possible. We start with a short discussion of neutron production at large-scale facilities....
background: the poly-allyl diglycol carbonate (padc) detector is of particular interest for development of a fast neutron dosimeter. fast neutrons interact with the constituents of the cr-39 detector and produce h, c and o recoils, as well as (n, α) reaction. these neutron- induced charged particles contribute towards the response of cr-39 detectors. material and methods: electrochemical etchin...
Building an accelerator at six geographically dispersed sites is quite mad, but politically expedient. The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), currently under construction in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, combines a pulsed 1 Gev H superconducting linac with a compressor ring to deliver 2MW of beam power to a liquid mercury target for neutron production [1]. Accelerator components, target and experimental ...
