Design development of double-layer beam shaping assembly using extension nozzle to increase the quality of epithermal neutron beam as a boron neutron capture therapy neutron source

Ядерна фізика та енергетика, 2021
Double layer beam shaping assembly (DLBSA) is a system that moderates fast neutrons into epithermal neutrons. The epithermal neutrons that leave the aperture in the DLBSA system are broadened in the space, thereby reducing the intensity and homogeneity ...

Epithermal neutron instrumentation at ISIS [PDF]

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2014
The advent of pulsed neutron sources makes available high epithermal neutron fluxes (in the energy range between 500 meV and 100 eV). New dedicated instrumentation, such as Resonance Detectors, was developed at ISIS spallation neutron source in the last years to apply the specific properties of this kind of neutron beam to the study of condensed matter.

Epithermal neutron beam interference with cardiac pacemakers [PDF]

Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 2011
In this paper, a phantom study was performed to evaluate the effect of an epithermal neutron beam irradiation on the cardiac pacemaker function. Severe malfunction occurred in the pacemakers after substantially lower dose from epithermal neutron irradiation than reported in the fast neutron or photon beams at the same dose rate level.
