Dosimetry of fission neutrons in a 1-W reactor, UTR-KINKI.
The energy spectrum of fission neutrons in the biological irradiation field of the Kinki University reactor, UTR-KINKI, has been determined by a multi-foil activation analysis coupled with artificial neural network techniques and a Au-foil activation method. The mean neutron energy was estimated to be 1.26 +/- 0.05 MeV from the experimentally determined spectrum. Based on this energy value and ...
متن کاملMicrodosimetry on a mini-reactor UTR-KINKI for educational uses and biological researches.
Microdosimetry study has been carried out at the education and research mini-reactor of Kinki University (UTR-KINKI) using a tissue equivalent gas proportional counter (TEPC). The microdosimetric single event spectra for 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 5 microm site sizes were obtained in the lineal energy range from 1 to 1000 keV/microm. Neutron and gamma-ray fractional doses were estimated from the single e...
متن کاملNeed of Reactor Dosimetry Preservation
The nuclear safety requirements and philosophy have changed by the development of new nuclear systems and this imposes special research and development activity. Reactor dosimetry which is applied for determination of neutron field parameters and neutron flux responses in different regions of the reactor system plays an important role in determining of radiation exposure on reactor system eleme...
متن کاملTagging fast neutrons from a 252Cf fission-fragment source.
Coincidence and time-of-flight measurement techniques are employed to tag fission neutrons emitted from a 252Cf source sealed on one side with a very thin layer of Au. The source is positioned within a gaseous 4He scintillator detector. Together with α particles, both light and heavy fission fragments pass through the thin layer of Au and are detected. The fragments enable the corresponding fis...
متن کاملPersonal dosimetry in a mixed field of high-energy muons and neutrons.
High energy accelerators quite often emit muons. These particles behave in matter as would heavy electrons and are thus difficult to attenuate with shielding in many situations. Hence, these muons can be a source of radiation exposure to personnel and suitable methods of measuring the absorbed dose received by these people is obviously required. In practical situations: such muon radiation fiel...
