A Cobalt Neutron-flux Integrator [PDF]

open access: yesHealth Physics, 1961
A fast-neutron detector, expected to be useful for health physies purposes, is described. The detector is a cobalt disk embedded in a cadmium- cased paraffin moderator. The Co/sup 60/ produced in a disk during irradiation is measured subsequently with a gamma -ray scintillation spectrometer to determine the integrated neutron exposure.

Characterization of the neutron flux during production of 18F at a medical cyclotron and evaluation of the incidental neutron spectrum for neutron damage studies.

open access: yesApplied Radiation and Isotopes, 2019
The fast neutron spectrum was measured in an irradiation position adjacent to two 18F (fluorine-18) production targets at a medical cyclotron. The neutron spectrum was modeled using MCNP6 and experimentally determined using activation foils.

Seasonal and Lunar Month Periods Observed in Natural Neutron Flux at High Altitude [PDF]

open access: yesPure and Applied Geophysics, 2016
Air radon concentration measurement is useful for research on geophysical effects, but it is strongly sensitive to site geology and many geophysical and microclimatic processes such as wind, ventilation, air humidity and so on inducing very big ...

Evaluating the dependency of neutron spectra and absorbed dose rates on the collimation field size in fast neutron therapy

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
The aim of this research was to investigate the relationship between the collimator aperture and fast-neutron flux, neutron-energy spectrum and absorbed dose rate.

Development of neutron flux measurement module for research reactors based on FPGA. Part-1-Model development and generic verification

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2020
Many Instrumentation and Control (I&C) systems of Research reactors experience aging difficulties that necessitate optimizing operations and safety systems. Therefore, great attention paid to FPGA-based I&C use particularly in safety systems; this is due

Calculation of Thermal Neutron Diffusion Length in a Light Water Media using MCNP Code [PDF]

open access: yesمجله علوم و فنون هسته‌ای, 2023
One of the key parameters of neutron diffusing media is the thermal neutron diffusion length. The popular calculational method is founded on utilizing MCNP code and curve fitting of a mathematical function to the neutron flux distribution in the media ...

CALCULATION OF NEUTRON FLUX DISTRIBUTION AT PIERCING BEAM PORTS OF PLATE TYPE RESEARCH REACTOR BANDUNG

open access: yes, 2020
Based on a strategic plan of TRIGA 2000 Bandung’s future operation, BATAN has already decided to implement an option to convert the fuel elements core of TRIGA 2000 from using the cylindrical type of elements produced by General Atomic to MTR plate type ...

Impact of physical model error on state estimation for neutronics applications* [PDF]

open access: yesESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2023
In this paper, we consider the inverse problem of state estimation of nuclear power fields in a power plant from a limited number of observations of the neutron flux. For this, we use the Parametrized Background Data Weak approach.

A large-scale magnetic field produced by a solar-like dynamo in binary neutron star mergers [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2023
The merger of two neutron stars launches a relativistic jet, which must be driven by a strong large-scale magnetic field. However, the magnetohydrodynamical mechanism required to build up this magnetic field remains uncertain.

The Unit of Neutron Flux [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1961
A unit of neutron flux, the chad, is defined as follows: 1 chad = 10/sup 1//sup 2/ n/cm/sup 2/ sec. The flux in most existing or contemplated power reactors lies in the range of lO/sup 1//sup 2/ to lO/sup 1//sup 3/ n/cm/sup 2/ sec, the flux in zero energy reactors is generally about 10/sup 9/ n/cm/sup 2/ sec, and that encountered in subcritical ...
