Diagnosing plasma magnetization in inertial confinement fusion implosions is important for understanding how magnetic fields affect implosion dynamics and to assess conditions magnetized experiments. Secondary deuterium–tritium (DT) reactions provide two diagnostic signatures infer neutron-averaged magnetization. Magnetically confining tritons from deuterium–deuterium (DD) the hot spot increase...

The performance of a explosives detection system based on the pulsed fast/thermal neutron analysis technique was assessed using Monte Carlo simulations. The aim was to develop and implement simulation methods, to support and advance the data analysis techniques of the characteristic -ray spectra, potentially leading to elemental characterization of innocuous objects using the full spectrum anal...

BNCT is a radiotherapy modality based on the neutron capture and fission reactions that occur when boron-10 is irradiated by thermal neutrons. This reaction generates alpha and lithium that produce high density of ionizations in close to the reaction site. The concept provides high absorbed doses into the cancerous cells preserving the adjacent healthy tissues. Nowadays, the available neutron s...

Double Toeplitz (DT) codes are with a generator matrix of the form (I,T) T matrix, that is to say constant on diagonals parallel main. When tridiagonal and symmetric we determine its spectrum explicitly by using Dickson polynomials, deduce from there conditions for code be LCD. Using special concatenation process, construct optimal or quasi-optimal examples binary ternary LCD DT over extension ...

A new approach to fast-neutron dosimeq is described. It involves circulating a liquid with dissolved chemicals between a localized neutron field and a remote area where neutron-induced radioactivities are measured continuously. This approach employs reactions whch generate relatively short-lived radioactive byproducts. Sensitivity to the neutron energy spectrum is achieved by choosing several r...
