Experimental method to measure the prompt neutron spectra of 238U fission induced by fast neutrons has been developed at HI-13 Tandem Van de Graaff Accelerator Laboratory of CIAE.These techniques employ a multi-segment fission chamber and two liquid scintillator neutron detectors.TOF(time of flight)techniques are used for primary neutrons to select the fission events induced by monoenergetic neutron from 2H(d,n) reactions instead of breakup neutrons from 2H(d,np) reactions.The fission neutron TOF spectra are measured in coincidence with the fission fragments to distinguish fission neutrons from other secondary neutrons.The method permits measurements to a fairly good accuracy under large neutron and gamma ray background.The techniques are described and experimental spectra are presented.  相似文献

Fast neutron applications have gained popularity with the growth of fast neutron production facilities. Covering a larger area and/or wider angle can be one of the advantages of a fast neutron detector. In the present study, a large-area composite stilbene scintillator with the dimensions of 200 mm (D) × 20 mm (H) was fabricated to examine its scintillation properties and to evaluate its applicability to fast neutron detection. The detector response of small- and large-area composite stilbene scintillators for neutrons and gamma rays was measured and compared with that of commercial and small single-crystal stilbene scintillators. To this end, the response of each scintillator was measured for radioisotopes as well as mono-energetic neutrons generated by a Tandem accelerator. The neutron–gamma separation performance of the large-area composite stilbene scintillator was evaluated in terms of figure-of-merit (FoM) using the digital pulse shape discrimination method. The composite stilbene scintillator showed good energy linearity, as determined from its recoil proton spectra, with reasonable n–γ separation capability. The results indicated that the composite stilbene scintillator could be applied to the field of fast neutron detection, especially when a large area and/or a wide angle is to be covered and could be a good alternative to liquid scintillators.  相似文献

Monte Carlo simulation has been used to calculate the different components of neutrons and secondary gamma rays originated by 252Cf fission and also the primary gamma rays emitted directly by the 252Cf source at the exit face of a compact system designed for the BNCT. The system consists of a 252Cf source and a moderator/reflector/filter assembly. To study the material properties and configuration possibilities, the MCNP code has been used. The moderator/reflector/filter arrangement is optimised to moderate neutrons to epithermal energy and, as far as possible, to get rid of fast and thermal neutrons and photons from the therapeutic beam. To reduce the total gamma contamination and to have a sufficiently high epithermal neutron flux we have used different photon filters of different thickness. Our analysis showed that the use of an appropriate filter leads to a gamma ray flux reduction without affecting the epithermal neutron beam quality at the exit face of the system.  相似文献

Nondestructive assay methods that rely on measurement of correlated gamma rays from fission have been proposed as a means to determine the mass of fissile materials. Sensitivity studies for such measurements will require knowledge of the multiplicity of prompt gamma rays from fission; however, a very limited number of multiplicity distributions have been measured. A method is proposed to estimate the average number of gamma rays from any fission process by using the correlation of neutron and gamma emission in fission. Using this method, models for the total prompt gamma ray energy from fission adequately reproduce the measured value for thermal neutron induced fission of 233U. Likewise, the average energy of prompt gamma rays from fission has been adequately estimated using a simple linear model. Additionally, a method to estimate the multiplicity distribution of prompt gamma rays from fission is proposed based on a measured distribution for 252Cf. These methods are only approximate at best and should only be used for sensitivity studies. Measurements of the multiplicity distribution of prompt gamma rays from fission should be performed to determine the adequacy of the models proposed in this article.  相似文献

A formula is given which, for neutron energies in the range 10−4 < E < 10 eV, permits calculation of the nuclear capture, thermal diffuse and Bragg scattering cross-sections as a function of magnesium oxide (MgO) temperature and crystal parameters. Computer program has been developed to calculate the total neutron cross-section and transmission through mono-crystalline MgO. The calculated neutron transmission and effective attenuation coefficient values for MgO-single crystal at different temperatures are compared with measured ones. An overall agreement is indicated between the formula fits and experimental data. A feasibility study for the use of MgO-single crystal is discussed in terms of the optimum MgO-single crystal thickness, mosaic spread, temperature and cutting plane for efficient transmission of thermal-reactor neutrons, and also for rejection of the accompanying fast neutrons and gamma rays.  相似文献

A prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) set-up with an Am-Be source developed for in situ analysis of liquid samples is described. The linearity of its response was tested for chlorine and cadmium dissolved in water. Prompt gamma efficiency of the system has been determined experimentally using prompt gamma of chlorine dissolved in water and detection limits for different elements have been derived for domestic waste water. A methodology to analyze any kind of liquid is then proposed. This methodology consists mainly on using standards with water as bulk or in the case of absolute method, to use gamma efficiency determined with prompt gammas emitted by chlorine dissolved in water. To take into account the thermal neutron flux variations inside the samples, flux monitoring was carried out using a He-3 neutron detector placed at the external sample container surface. Finally, to correct for the differences in gamma attenuation, average gamma attenuations factors were calculated using MCNP5 code. This method was then checked successfully by determining cadmium in industrial phosphoric acid and our result was in good agreement with that obtained with inductively coupled plasma (ICP) method.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Monitoring only neutron flux in a nuclear reactor core has an advantage of offering reactor power monitoring accuracy. We started the development of a new nuclear instrumentation based on the measurement of prompt gamma rays emitted from metals placed at the neutron flux monitoring positions. The thermal neutron flux at the position of each placed metal piece can be monitored by measuring the prompt gamma rays as the count rate of each energy. The gamma-ray energy range was limited from 6 to 10 MeV to mitigate the interference of environmental gamma rays. Four metals, Ti, V, Ni, and Cu, were chosen as candidates in consideration of their neutron emission rates and self-absorption. In an experiment with a high-purity germanium semiconductor detector, we considered the identification of individual peak energies in an assumed situation where prompt gamma rays were emitted from the four different metals at the same time. Energy resolutions of the peak with the largest energy gap from the nearest energy peak of the other candidate metals were smaller than the gap. Thus, we confirmed that at least one peak for each candidate metal was able to be separated from the peaks derived from other candidate metals.  相似文献

The response of a 14 MeV neutron-based prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) system, i.e.the prompt gamma-rays count rate and the average thermal neutron flux, is studied with a large concrete sample and with a homogeneous large sample, which is made of polyethylene and metal with various concentrations of hydrogen and cadmium using the MCNP-5 (Monte Carlo N-Particle) code. The average thermal neutron flux is determined by the analysis of the prompt gamma-rays using the thermal neutron activation of hydrogen in the sample, and the thermal and fast neutron activation of carbon graphite irradiation chamber of the PGNAA-system. Our results demonstrated that the graphite irradiation chamber of the PGNAA-system fairly operates, and is useful to estimate the average thermal neutron flux of large samples with various compositions irradiated by 14 MeV neutrons.  相似文献

The purpose of this study is to develop a radiation distribution monitor using a normal plastic optical fiber. The monitor has a long operating length and can obtain continuous radiation distributions. A principle of the position sensing is based on a time-of-flight technique. The monitor is sensitive to beta rays or charged particles, gamma rays, and fast neutrons. The spatial resolutions for beta-rays ( 90Sr-90Y), gamma-rays (137Cs), and D-T neutrons are 30, 37, and 13 cm, respectively. The detection efficiencies for the beta-rays, gamma-rays, and D-T neutrons are 0.11%, 1.6×10 -5% and 1.2×10-4%, respectively. The effective attenuation length of the detection efficiency is 18 m. In this paper, we describe the basic characteristics of this monitor  相似文献

For the purpose of finding a principle for material configuration which an ideal radiation shielding in slab geometry should obey, radiation energy dependence of material configuration is studied. In the course of study, radiation shielding capability for each system of different material configuration is evaluated by using radiation shielding characteristic functions defined as dose rates of transmitted radiations in response to isotropic incidence of radiations to the slab shield with pulse-like narrow energy distributions.In shielding neutrons by steel and water layers, recommendable material configuration depends on energy distribution of incident neutrons; all steel layers should be located in the source side of all water layers, if incident neutron energies are above 5 MeV: either homogeneous array of steel and water layers or above mentioned material configuration is recommendable, if incident neutron energies are between 2 MeV and 5 MeV: all water layers should be located in the source side of all steel layers, if incident neutron energies are below 2 MeV or incident neutrons have energy spectrum of fission neutrons.Above recommendation can be understood well by considering both energy dependence of neutron cross sections of each material and the maximum amount of energy degradation at elastic scattering in each material.In designing a neutron shield, shielding of secondary gamma rays is important as well as neutron shielding. This importance is demonstrated for several types of actual cask walls which are composed of many material layers by using the characteristic functions of neutrons and gamma rays for cask walls.  相似文献

A model of an irregular situation in a spent nuclear fuel repository with the introduction of excess reactivity into the system, consisting of containers with spent fuel assemblies and water, is examined. The neutron kinetics of a critical system is calculated taking account of the thermohydraulics of the system. The character of the flow of a short-time self-sustained chain reaction — “neutron burst” — is described. It is found that an excursion of the system in the range of reactivity introduction rates examined will result in heating of the system and self-quenching of the chain reaction by negative reactivity effects with respect to fuel temperature. Intense fluxes of fission neutrons and prompt gamma rays, accompanying a self-sustained chain reaction, are formed in the excursion process. A mixed neutron and gamma ray field near the system considered is investigated. __________ Translated from Atomnaya énergiya,Vol. 104, No. 3, pp. 141–147, March, 2008.  相似文献
