An ionization chamber for fission fragment analysis
Fission fragments play a pivotal role in understanding the entire nuclear fission process, and their effects are widespread to all applications involving nuclear fission: reactor design and maintenance, waste removal, active and passive integration of nuclear materials, simulations, and the fundamental theories of fission. Currently, experimental data on the characteristic properties of fission...
متن کاملNeutron Transport Analysis of the Processes Affecting the in situ Calibration of ITER In-Vessel Neutron Flux Monitors Equipped with a Micro-Fission Chamber System
Neutron transport analysis is used to evaluate the effects of neutron calibration source position, support structure, and water coolant on the in situ calibration of the in-vessel neutron flux monitor using the micro-fission chamber (MFC) system by applying a Monte Carlo code for neutron and photon transport (MCNP). Results indicate that changing the position of a neutron calibration source lea...
متن کاملModulating the Neutron Flux from a Mirror Neutron Source
A 14-MeV neutron source based on a Gas-Dynamic Trap will provide a high flux of 14 MeV neutrons for fusion materials and sub-component testing. In addition to its main goal, the source has potential applications in condensed matter physics and biophysics. In this report, the author considers adding one more capability to the GDT-based neutron source, the modulation of the neutron flux with a de...
متن کاملCalibration of iridium-192 source by ionization chamber for high dose rate brachytherapy
Background: The effectiveness and safety of brachytherapy treatment is mainly concerned with the calibration of sources and their traceability to internationally accepted Standards. Secondary Standard Dosimetry Laboratory (SSDL) does not offer calibration of ionization chambers with gamma-ray spectrum of high dose rate source 192Ir . This work has been carried out to calibrate the high dose rat...
متن کاملIonization chamber-based reference dosimetry of intensity modulated radiation beams.
The present paper addresses reference dose measurements using thimble ionization chambers for quality assurance in IMRT fields. In these radiation fields, detector fluence perturbation effects invalidate the application of open-field dosimetry protocol data for the derivation of absorbed dose to water from ionization chamber measurements. We define a correction factor C(Q)IMRT to correct the ab...
