Modelisation and distribution of neutron flux in radium–beryllium source (226Ra–Be)

Аннотация

Using the Monte Carlo N-Particle code (MCNP-6), to analyze the thermal, epithermal and fast neutron fluxes, of 3 millicuries of radium–beryllium, for determine the qualitative and quantitative of many materials, using method of neutron activation analysis. Radium–beryllium source of neutron is established to practical work and research in nuclear field. The main objective of this work was to enable us harness the profile flux of radium–beryllium irradiation, this theoretical study permits to discuss the design of the optimal irradiation and performance for increased the facility research and education of nuclear physics.
