Purpose: Out‐of‐field neutron doses resulting from photonuclear interactions in the head of
a linear accelerator pose an iatrogenic risk to patients and an occupational risk to personnel …

Abstract Using Monte Carlo methods, the neutron spectra in 31 energy groups of several
isotopic neutron sources were estimated. For each source the neutron mean energy; the …

A liquid fueled thorium molten salt reactor (TMSR-LF), one of the Generation IV reactors,
was designed by the Shanghai Institute of Applied Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences …

NSDUAZ (Neutron Spectrometry and Dosimetry from the Universidad Autónoma de
Zacatecas) is a user friendly neutron unfolding package for Bonner sphere spectrometer …

A subcritical nuclear reactor is a device where the nuclear-fission chain reaction is initiated
and maintained using an external neutron source. It is a valuable educational and research …

Monte Carlo calculations were carried out to characterize the neutron field produced by the
calibration neutron sources of the Neutron Standards Laboratory at the Research Center for …

In proton therapy facilities, high-energy neutron fields are generated as a consequence of
(p, Xn) nuclear interactions. UPM has designed and tested its own extended-range Bonner …

The neutronics hall of the Nuclear Engineering Department at the Polytechnical University of
Madrid has been characterized. The neutron spectra and the ambient dose equivalent …

Neutron spectrum and ambient dose equivalent has been measured around two 10 MV
linear accelerators. Measurements were carried out in Mevatron and Primus model linacs …

This paper presents the characterization of a neutron calibration field of a 241 Am− Be
source using Bonner sphere spectrometer. The characterization of the neutron field in terms …
