Shielding design and neutronics calculation of the GDT based fusion neutron source ALIANCE

Fusion engineering and design, 2021
This paper presents the high flux neutron shielding design and extensive neutronics calculations of GDT based fusion neutron source ALIANCE. Neutron distribution of ALIANCE is strongly inhomogeneous along the axis: significant portion of the neutron flux

Neutron imaging with an inertial electrostatic confinement fusion neutron source

Applied Optics, 2022
A compact inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) fusion neutron source was developed. Imaging tests using the cylindrical IEC neutron source were conducted with the indirect imaging plate (IP) method using dysprosium foil and an imaging plate. An array of B 4

Fusion for Neutrons: A Realizable Fusion Neutron Source

IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science, 2011
For 60 years, fusion research has been focused on fusion for energy as the ultimate carbon-free solution to the world's energy problems. It is proving a worthy but difficult task. However, it is relatively easy to produce high-energy fusion neutrons.

Initial Neutronics Investigation of a Liquid-Metal Plasma-Facing Fusion Nuclear Science Facility

Fusion science and technology, 2019
The use of a liquid-metal (LM) plasma-facing component (LM-PFC) in fusion reactor designs has some advantages as well as some disadvantages as compared to traditional designs that use a solid plasma-facing wall.

Neutron Imaging of Laser Fusion Targets

Science, 1988
A long-term goal of inertial-confinement fusion research is the generation of energy by imploding capsules containing deuterium-tritium fuel. Progress in designing the capsules is aided by accurate imaging of the fusion burn. Penumbral coded-aperture techniques have been used to obtain neutron images that are a direct measurement of the fusion burn ...

Neutron and plasma irradiations of fusion reactor materials using fusion plasma neutron sources

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 1992
Abstract A compact and steady-state DT plasma with parameters relevant to a fusion-reactor, the FEF (fusion engineering facility), has been considered as a neutron source for the development of fusion reactor materials providing both. (1) 14 MeV fusion neutron irradiation testing, and (2) high charged particle flux for testing of plasma-facing ...

Criteria for neutron fusion

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 1979
Abstract The reaction 6Li(n, α) T is studied as a possible mechanism for driving a fuel pellet of 6LiD to fusion temperatures through bombardment with low energy neutrons. The criterion Jt ⩾ 1023 for fusion by this scheme is derived where J is incident neutron current (cm−2 · s−1) and t is time (s). The possibility of fusion through implosion is also

Fission–fusion neutron source

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2009
In order to meet the requirements of fusion power reactors and nuclear waste treatment, a concept of fission-fusion neutron source is proposed, which consists of a LiD assembly located in the heavy water region of the China Advanced Research Reactor. This assembly of LiD fuel rods will be irradiated with slow neutrons and will produce fusion neutrons ...
