The energy spectra of neutrons were measured by a time-of-flight method for 120 GeV protons on thick graphite, aluminum, copper, and tungsten targets with an NE213 scintillator at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility. Neutron energy spectra were obtained between 25 and 3000 MeV at emission angles of 30, 45, 120, and 150. The spectra were parameterized as neutron emissions from three moving sources and then compared with theoretical spectra calculated by PHITS and FLUKA codes. The yields of the theoretical spectra were substantially underestimated compared with the yields of measured spectra. The integrated neutron yields from 25 to 3000 MeV calculated with PHITS code were 16-36% of the experimental yields and those calculated with FLUKA code were 26-57% of the experimental yields for all targets and emission angles.

Silicon carbide is the most prominent candidate for accident tolerant fuel cladding in terms of oxidation resistance and cladding integrity at high temperatures in steam. However, dilution of silica from SiC in aqueous environment under long-term corrosion can become a concern when considering SiC as nuclear graded materials. In order to improve its corrosion resistance in water for normal operations, coating of Ti layer on SiC was proposed. In this study, oxidation behavior and oxidation kinetics of Ti-coated SiC are studied via a thermogravimetric system at 1200-1500C. Influence of the Ti coating layer on oxidation kinetics and behavior of SiC will then be discussed and reported.
