Multi-group Transport Methods for High-resolution Neutron Activation Analysis
The accurate and efficient simulation of coupled neutron-photon problems is necessary for several important radiation detection applications. Examples include the detection of nuclear threats concealed in cargo containers and prompt gamma neutron activation analysis for nondestructive determination of elemental composition of unknown samples. In these applications, highresolution gamma-ray spec...
متن کاملIterative Methods for Neutron Transport Eigenvalue Problems
We discuss iterative methods for computing criticality in nuclear reactors. In general this requires the solution of a generalised eigenvalue problem for an unsymmetric integro-differential operator in 6 independent variables, modelling transport, scattering and fission, where the dependent variable is the neutron angular flux. In engineering practice this problem is often solved iteratively, u...
متن کاملNeutron Transport Calculations Using Monte-Carlo Methods
Fusion reactions from direct-drive inertial confinement fusion experiments at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) release large amounts of stored nuclear energy. Most of it is given off as energetic neutrons. Plastic scintillators are used as detectors for these neutrons. The neutrons that interact with the scintillator produce photons that are recorded using a photomultiplier tube on a f...
متن کاملAnalytical solutions for the neutron transport using the spectral methods
We present a method for solving the two-dimensional equation of transfer. The method can be extended easily to the general linear transport problem. The used technique allows us to reduce the two-dimensional equation to a system of one-dimensional equations. The idea of using the spectral method for searching for solutions to the multidimensional transport problems leads us to a solution for al...
