A prototype compact accelerator-based neutron source (CANS) for Canada [PDF]
Journal of Neutron Research, 2021 Canada’s access to neutron beams for neutron scattering was significantly curtailed in 2018 with the closure of the National Research Universal (NRU) reactor in Chalk River, Ontario, Canada. New sources are needed for the long-term; otherwise, access will only become harder as the global supply shrinks.

ACCELERATOR BASED CONTINUOUS NEUTRON SOURCE. [PDF]
, 2003 Until the last decade, most neutron experiments have been performed at steady-state, reactor-based sources. Recently, however, pulsed spallation sources have been shown to be very useful in a wide range of neutron studies. A major review of neutron sources in the US was conducted by a committee chaired by Nobel laureate Prof. W. Kohn: ''Neutron Sources

EXTENDED MSM METHOD TO ESTIMATE THE REACTIVITY OF A SUB-CRITICAL CORE DRIVEN BY AN ACCELERATOR BASED NEUTRON SOURCE [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 The Modified Source Multiplication method is used to determine an unknown reactivity level of a reactor from a known one if one has access to the detector counting for both levels when the reactor is fed by a constant neutron source like an Am-Be source.
