74. Updates on the BLUME and TRTM OIMs impact on the collimated neutrons entering Complementary Experiments Room R160 at DONES

Dr. Arkady Serikov (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT))

2/10/24, 9:00

Neutron energy spectra collimated by the Neutron Beam Tube and Shutter (NBT&S) at the entrance to the Complementary Experiments Room (CER) R160 are presented in this work, with particular investigation of the impact caused to neutron spectra by the materials of the High Flux Test Module (HFTM) and Other Irradiation Modules (OIMs). At KIT we develop two OIMs: BLUME (BLanket fUnctional Materials...

76. Collimated neutron beam facility at DONES [on-line]

Grzegorz Wojtania (NCBJ)

IFMIF-DONES is intended to be a powerful source of fast neutrons and as such it is of interest for various scientific and technology communities. Facility for Complementary Experiments is a part of DONES designed to broaden the scientific potential of the installation. With a dedicated experimental area of almost 300 m2 the facility will provide on-demand access to collimated neutron beam...

66. Radiation shielding for the Complementary Experiments Hall [on-line]

Dr. Grzegorz Tracz (IFJ PAN)

2/10/24, 9:40

Biological dose rates in the Complementary Experiments Hall were calculated. The study includes also the neighbouring rooms that, due to the radiation safety classification, are to be mostly in the so called “green zone”, i.e. the dose rate is to be below 10 μSv/h. The dose rate in the corridor and outside the DONES facility was also computed. Besides, the impact of HVAC was investigated....

79. An accelerator-driven graphite pile for thermal neutrons at IFMIF-DONES [on-line]

Carlos Guerrero (Universidad de Sevilla / Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA))

2/10/24, 9:55

Thermal neutrons are a powerful tool for basic and applied science. Their main applications are radioisotope production, neutron imaging, metrology or activation analysis; but they can also be used to induce nuclear reactions allowing for research on nuclear structure, among others. At IFMIF-DONES the neutrons will be produced with a fast spectrum, but this can be duly moderated to provide...

81. Sequential decay reactions induced by neutrons on light nuclei

Matko Milin (Physics Department, Faculty of Science, University of Zagreb, Croatia)

2/10/24, 10:10

Structure of light atomic nuclei is a object of renewed interest - part of it stems from the recent advent of ab initio calculations, but part is also due to the exotic configurations found at high excitation energies and/or in neutron-rich nuclei. Halo states, nuclear molecules and other exotic clustering are just some of the examples of such unusual quantum structures found and studied in...
