introduction bnct is an effective method to destroy brain tumoral cells while sparing the healthy tissues. the recommended flux for epithermal neutrons is 109 n/cm2s, which has the most effectiveness on deep-seated tumors. in this paper, it is indicated that using d-t neutron source and optimizing of beam shaping assembly (bsa) leads to treating brain tumors in a reasonable time where all iaea ...

One of the radiotherapy has boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). They may make it easier to kill tumor cells with BNCT. In BNCT, it is important for boron agents, which have high selectively and high accumulation, to be introduced into tumor cells. To date, the main boron compounds used by the clinical study are sodium mercaptododecaborate (BSH) and pboronophenylalanine (BPA). But, there are n...

Multi-step nuclear reactions in the core of an OMEGA implosion can be used to infer the density of the deuterium-tritium (DT) fuel at peak compression, an important measure of the implosion performance. A three-step process leads to the production of tertiary neutrons with energies up to 30 million electron volts (MeV), more than twice the energy of the primary neutrons (14.1 MeV) from the dire...

The neutron monitor provides continuous ground-based recording of the hadronic component in atmospheric secondary radiation which is related to primary cosmic rays. Simpson (1948) discovered that the latitude variation of the secondary hadronic component was considerably larger than the muon component suggesting the response of a neutron monitor is more sensitive to lower energies in the primar...

DT neutron yield (Y(n)), ion temperature (T(i)), and down-scatter ratio (dsr) determined from measured neutron spectra are essential metrics for diagnosing the performance of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosions at the National Ignition Facility (NIF). A suite of neutron-time-of-flight (nTOF) spectrometers and a magnetic recoil spectrometer (MRS) have been implemented in different locat...

In a recent investigation of solid D2 as a UCN source[1], it was surmised that the yield of UCN is correlated with the spin states of the deuterium molecules. Subsequently, detailed neutron scattering calculations and measurements of the UCN lifetime in mixtures of paraand ortho-deuterium quantitatively verified this conjecture.[2,3,4,5,6] The work we report here was motivated by our attempt to...

In former papers we showed that during the decay of a neutron star’s magnetic field under the influence of the Hall–drift, an unstable rise of small–scale field structures at the expense of the large–scale background field may happen. This linear stability analysis was based on the assumption of a uniform density throughout the neutron star crust, whereas in reality the density and all transpor...

Ballistic neutron guides are efficient for neutron transport over long distances, and in particular elliptically shaped guides have received much attention lately. However, elliptic neutron guides generally deliver an inhomogeneous divergence distribution when used with a small source, and do not allow kinks or curvature to avoid a direct view from source to sample. In this article, a kinked do...

We present results of a recent Chandra X-ray Observatory observation of the central compact object (CCO) in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. This observation was obtained in an instrumental configuration that combines a high spatial resolution with a minimum spectral distortion, and it allowed us to search for pulsations with periods longer than ≈ 0.68 s. We found no evidence of extended emi...

In this research, the applicability of several metal hydrides as neutron moderator and shielding for D-D fusion sources has been investigated by MCNPX code. The results have been investigated in three steps to find the materials with lower thermal, fast and total neutron fluxes than conventional shielding materials. The results show relative advantages of LaNi5H6, VH, TiH2, TaH, Mg (BH4)2, YH2,...
