Reconstruction of the Neutron Flux in a Slab Reactor
In this electronic article we use the one-dimensional multigroup neutron diffusion equation to reconstruct the neutron flux in a slab reactor from the nuclear parameters of the reactor, boundary and symmetry condition, initial flux and . The diffusion equation was solved analytically for one single homogeneous fuel region and for two regions considering fuel and reflector. To validate the metho...
متن کاملInvestigation of neutron flux by thermoluminescence dosimeters in the neutron-gamma mixed field
Introduction: Neutrons have many applications in various fields, such as medicine. The important application of neutron in medical science is in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). Because of this, determination of neutron dose and flux is critical for the health maintaining of workers and patients exposed to this beam. The neutron radioisotope sources produce gamma rays in ...
متن کاملCollimator Design for Neutron Radiography Systems Using a Reactor Flux
This paper is aimed to investigate the design of an optimized neutron radiography system that utilizes the flux of a reactor. Moderation, collimation aspects are studied. A Monte Carlo code, MCNP4C, was utilized to achieve a maximum and more homogenous neutron flux in the collimator outlet next to the image plane, taking into account geometric characteristics. It was possible to obtain a normal...
متن کاملSimulation of the Performance of a Fundamental Neutron Physics Beamline at the High Flux Isotope Reactor
We study the expected performance of the proposed fundamental neutron physics beamline at the upgraded High Flux Isotope Reactor at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. A curved neutron guide transmits the neutrons from the new cold source into a guide hall. A novel feature of the proposed guide is the use of vertical focussing to increase the flux for experiments that require relatively small cross-...
متن کاملMaximum mass of neutron stars with a quark core
Massive neutron stars (NS) are expected to possess a quark core. While the hadronic side of the NS equation of state (EOS) can be considered well established, the quark side is quite uncertain. While calculating the EOS of hadronic matter we have used the Brueckner-Bethe-Goldstone formalism with realistic two-body and three-body forces, as well as a relativistic mean field model. For quark matt...
