GENESIS: Gamma Energy Neutron Energy Spectrometer for Inelastic Scattering
2024, Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated EquipmentInvestigating characteristics of neutrons from accelerator-driven compact source using novel target of compressed beryllium-powder
2023, Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated EquipmentProbing yields and angular distributions of Be(d,n) neutrons with novel target of compressed beryllium-powder
2022, Radiation Physics and ChemistryCitation Excerpt :The inelastic deuteron scattering and three-body interactions (d,2n) and (d,np) create the low energy fraction of spectrum (Allisy et al., 1989; Cierjacks, 1983). The major contribution of works investigated the d + Be source reactions and concerned with the spectral flux distributions and neutron yields measurements were performed within the last 50 to 40 years ago (Lone et al., 1977; Madey et al., 1977; Meadows, 1993; Meulders et al., 1975; Weaver et al., 1973; Saltmarsh et al., 1977; Brede et al., 1989; Graves et al., 1979; Bonnett and Parnell, 1982; Bonnett and Parnell, 1982, 1982; Waterman et al., 1979). In all previous works, a metallic beryllium target was used with different thicknesses.
Neutron spectrum determination of accelerator-driven d(10)+Be neutron source using the multi-foil activation technique
2022, Radiation Physics and ChemistryCitation Excerpt :The inelastic deuteron scattering and three-body interactions (d, 2n) and (d,np) create the low energy fraction of spectrum below 2 MeV and the peak at an energy of 0.8 MeV (Cierjacks, 1983; Allisy et al., 1989). The most of research works related to the d + Be source reaction come from the 70s and 80s of the last century, and they mainly include the results published by Lone et al. (1977), Weaver et al. (1973), Saltmarsh et al. (1977), Brede et al. (1989), Graves et al. (1979), Meulders et al. (1975), Madey et al. (1977), Bonnett and Parnell (1982), Meadows (1993), and Waterman et al. (1979), who were concerned with the spectral flux distributions and neutron yields measurement. The illustrations of experimentally found shapes of the d + Be neutron spectra measured by J.P. Meulders and M.A. Lone using the time-of-flight (TOF) method and scintillation probes are depicted in Figs. 1 and 2 (Meulders et al., 1975; Lone et al., 1977).
Thick target neutron yields from LiF, C, Si, Ni, Mo, and Ta bombarded by 6.7 MeV/u deuterons
2020, Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated EquipmentCitation Excerpt :In recent years, the process of neutron production by deuteron-induced reactions has been a candidate for various applications, such as radiation damage evaluation for fusion materials [1], boron neutron capture therapy [2], medical radioisotope production [3], and nuclear transmutation studies [4]. In recent studies, deuteron data such as double-differential cross sections (DDXs) and double-differential thick target neutron yields (DDTTNYs), were measured for neutron application [5–9]. These studies have also measured deuteron data for light elements, such as Li, Be, and C, as potential neutron sources.
