Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.03(Nuclear Science & Technology)At CERN, gas-filled ionization chambers PTW-34031 (PMI) are commonly used in radiation fields including neutrons, protons and -rays. A response function for each particle is calculated by the radiation transport code FLUKA. To validate a response function to high energy neutrons, benchmark experiments with quasi mono-energetic neutrons have been carried out at RCNP, Osaka University. For neutron irradiation with energies below 200 MeV, very good agreement was found comparing the FLUKA simulations and the measurements. In addition it was found that at proton energies of 250 and 392 MeV, results calculated with neutron sources underestimate the experimental data due to a non-negligible gamma component originating from the target Li(p,n)Be reaction.

Recently, many high-energy accelerators are used for various fields. Shielding data for high-energy neutrons are therefore very important from the point of view of radiation protection in high energy accelerator facilities. However, the shielding experimental data for high energy neutrons above 100 MeV are very poor both in quality and in quantity. In this study, neutron penetration spectral fluence and ambient dose through iron and concrete shields were measured with a Bonner sphere spectrometer (BSS). Quasi-monoenergetic neutrons were produced by the Li(p,xn) reaction by bombarding a 1-cm thick Li target with 246-MeV and 389-MeV protons in the Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP) of the Osaka University. Shielding materials are iron blocks with a thickness from 10 cm to 100 cm and concrete blocks with a thickness from 25 cm to 300 cm.

Times Cited Count:12 Percentile:66.54(Engineering, Electrical & Electronic)In this study, responses of Bonner sphere spectrometer (BSS) for 245 and 388 MeV neutrons was measured at RCNP, Osaka University. The neutrons are generated in the Li(p,n) reaction and its spectra consist of a high-energy peak and a continuum down to the low energy. Therefore, the observed counts of BSS caused by the continuum need to be subtracted. Adjusting a Li target angle and a collimator position, 0 deg and 30 deg component of generated neutron are available. While the 0 deg component contains both the peak and the continuum, the 30 deg component is considered to contain only the continuum. Therefore, the response of the peak is obtained. The spectra were measured using the time-of-flight (TOF) method with a NE213 scintillator.

Measurements of neutron spectra and neutron doses were performed in high-energy neutron fields at the Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP), Osaka University, Japan, using two extended Bonner Sphere Spectrometers (BSS), a WENDI-II REM meter, a DARWIN dosimeter, an extended FUJI REM counter, and the time-of-flight (TOF) method employing NE213 liquid organic scintillators. The quasi-mono-energetic neutron fields were generated by the Li(p,n)Be reaction from a Li target, injected by 246 and 389 MeV protons. The BSS and TOF neutron energy spectra were folded with H*(10) fluence-to-dose conversion coefficients and the resulting values for the neutron ambient dose equivalent were compared with those directly measured by various other instruments used in this experiment. Agreement among all H*(10) neutron doses was very reasonable considering the complexity of the experiment.
