The are several documents regarding the issue of concrete composition in fusion program. In general, the material specifications for IFMIF/DONES need to be compliant with the materials and compositions considered for DEMO in the PPPT programme. A reference document is Material compositions for PPPT neutronics and activation analyses that guides to *Recommended chemical composition of...
Neutronics analyses performed in this work continue the task of neutron spectra assessments [1] inside the Complementary Experiments Room (CER) collimated by the Neutron Beam Tube and Shutter (NBT&S) system. The NBT&S system is developed to supply neutrons from the D-Li target of the IFMIF-DONES Test Cell (TC) to the CER (Room R160) for conducting experiments with neutron spectra variated from...
The intense flux of high energy neutrons, that will be generated at the upcoming DONES facility offers a unique possibility for material production, cross section measurements and investigation of exotic nuclear properties.
Radioactive material for samples that are interesting for nuclear astrophysics, but difficult to produce in the right amount and purity, could be made here. This enables...
Neutron imaging is a non-intrusive inspection tool of interest in many applications. The most employed technique involves thermal neutrons, in most cases from a nuclear reactor, that offer an excellent contrast for light elements, mainly hydrogen, thus complementing gamma- and X-rays. However, all these have serious limitations when dealing with large samples. In these cases, only fast (MeV)...
