Estimation of neutron and gamma dose in the MNSR research reactor
In this study, the neutron and gamma doses in the dry channel and in the internal irradiation site of the Miniature Neutron Source research reactor (MNSR) has been calculated and measured. The MNSR reactor is a light water reactor with a maximum power of 30 kW and equipped with various irradiation facilities, including five irradiated sites, five irradiation sites and a dry channel. The interna...
متن کاملEstimation of neutron effective dose from DD and DT neutron generators and the design of appropriate shield for standing user
Neutron Generators (NG) are used as a neutron source for different applications. During recent years, major efforts are underway to develop a high yield compact NG. In this way, radiation protection aspects need to be considered during the operation of these high yield NGs. In this paper the neutron effective dose of a NG operator has been calculated using MCNPX Monte Carlo code. The results sh...
متن کاملDevelopment and Characterization of a Neutron Personal Dose Equivalent Monitor
The authors developed a new neutron-measuring instrument that was designed to measure a neutron personal dose equivalent, Hp(10). This instrument is composed of a conventional moderator-based neutron dose equivalent meter and a neutron shield made of borated polyethylene which covers a backward hemisphere to adjust the angular dependence. The whole design was determined on the basis of MCNP cal...
متن کاملNeutron Contamination Unexpected Dose in Varian LINAC
Introduction: Neutron contamination is very harmful for the patients receiving radiation therapy due to the high relative biological effect of neutrons. Medical linear accelerators head are made up of materials with high atomic numbers, and High-energy photons interaction with heavy materials can produce neutron contamination. In this study, neutron equivalent dose, neutron spe...
متن کاملEstimation and calculation of radiation dose of copper-64 for nuclear medicine usage
Radioactive materials used in nuclear medicine are the radioisotopes or drugs that are identified with radioisotopes. A radiopharmaceutical transfusion is one of diagnostic methods and a radiation value approved should be measured. The nuclear medicine images of diagnostic methods can be made by a gamma camera (γ-camera). In this article, we used MCNPX2.4 for internal dosimetry assessment when ...
