Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A standard fast reactor spectrum can be created by the partial moderation of the U-235 fission spectrum in an air cavity. Spherical natural uranium shells are driven by thermal neutrons from a thermal column. The uranium is placed at the center of a spherical graphite hohlraum to reduce the anisotropic effect of a planar source of thermal neutrons. The Oregon State University (OSU) fast neutron spectrum facility design employs this method which is being used by Albert Fabry in Mol, Belgium and the NISUS assembly in London, United Kingdom, to create a fast neutron spectrum. The OSU facility uses the ther malizing column of a TRIGA Mark II reactor for a thermal neutron source. The mechanical design is presented showing the location of the facility, the aluminum container and internals, and the transport assembly. Two computer codes are introduced in the nuclear design. SLAB is a first approximation diffusion theory code which justifies the use of one foot of graphite backed with water in place of "infinite graphite." FASTSPEC is a diffusion theory approximation code in spherical geometry which shows that the design will produce a spectrum characteristic of a fast reactor. Phase I operation is a mechanical test, health physics evaluation, and a thermal neutron calibration of the facility with a thermal neutron absorber in place of the uranium. The data for phase I is included. Phase II operation will be the insertion of an uranium driver shell and the calibration of the fast spectrum. Only phase I is complete at this time.

This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis· seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) *at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac· tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 20 (thesis year 1975) a total of 10,374 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 239 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. The organization of Volume 20 is identical to that of past years. It consists of theses titles arranged by discipline and by university within each discipline.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication addresses recent developments in neutron generator (NG) technology. It presents information on compact instruments with high neutron yield to be used for neutron activation analysis (NAA) and prompt gamma neutron activation analysis in combination with high count rate spectrometers. Traditional NGs have been shown to be effective for applications including borehole logging, homeland security, nuclear medicine and the on-line analysis of aluminium, coal and cement. Pulsed fast thermal neutron analysis, as well as tagged and timed neutron analysis, are additional techniques which can be applied using NG. Furthermore, NG can effectively be used for elemental analysis and is also effective for analysis of hidden materials by neutron radiography. Useful guidelines for developing NG based research laboratories are also provided in this publication.

Book excerpt: The criteria for intense fast neutron generators for radiotherapy and fusion materials research purposes are examined. For generators producing near monoenergetic 14-MeV neutrons from the T(d, n) reaction or a broad spectrum of neutrons via deuteron stripping in a thick Be target, the demands upon accelerator and target technology are greater for the materials research application than for therapy use. The properties of sources presently available, under construction, or proposed for future construction are discussed.
