Abstract: | Accelerator-based target design and optimization is an approach for neutron generation. The target plays an important role for a neutron source on an electron accelerator. For optimizing a neutron source using 10 MeV electron beams of Rhodotron-TT200, Pb, Ta, or W alloys with Be were calculated as photo-neutron converter. The neutron yield, flux and energy were simulated using the MCNPX code. The results indicate that a 10 MeV electron beam is capable of producing high-intensity neutron flux of 1013n·cm-2·s-1 with average energy of 0.8 MeV. |
