Calibration of CFUL01 fission chambers in the standard neutron fields of the BR1 reactor at SCK CEN [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
Recent subcritical VENUS-F experiments showed that fission chambers with a threshold deposit like U-238 can essentially improve the on-line sub-criticality measurments with the beam interruption method, which is currently supposed to be the main method ...

Fast Neutron Fluence Rate Measurement for the Neutron Beams at IHNI-1

Journal of Isotopes, 2017
To validate and determine the contamination source term of fast neutrons produced by the first in-Hospital Neutron Irradiator (IHNI-1) for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), a boron-covered 235U fission chamber was designed to be used for the ...

Application of Nonnegative Tensor Factorization for neutron-gamma discrimination of Monte Carlo simulated fission chamber’s output signals

Results in Physics, 2017
For efficient exploitation of research reactors, it is important to discern neutron flux distribution inside the reactor with the best possible precision. For this reason, fission and ionization chambers are used to measure the neutron field.

Machine learning methods for fission product identification from Bragg curves

AIP Advances, 2023
A fission time projection chamber (fission-TPC) was developed to provide precise neutron-induced fission measurements for several major actinides. As fission fragments lose energy in one of the gas volumes of the fission-TPC, energy loss information is ...

Experimental information on mass- and TKE-dependence of the prompt fission γ-ray multiplicity

Physics Letters B, 2021
Prompt γ rays from the spontaneous fission of 252Cf were measured with cerium-doped LaBr3 detectors. The average prompt fission γ-ray multiplicity, Mγ, was determined as a function of fragment mass number (A) and total kinetic energy (TKE).
