The accelerator-based D-D/D-T fusion neutron source, with mono-energy and high-intensity, is the key equipment to carry out the advanced research of neutron physics and neutron application technology, which provide reliable neutron source for basic research of neutron physics, new nuclear energy utilization system research and development, fusion device research and development, nuclear...
With the continuous development of neutron sources in various fields, achieving efficient miniaturization of accelerator-based neutron sources has become a research hotspot. Traditional large-scale neutron sources devices are limited by their large size and high energy consumption, restricting their feasibility in small laboratories and field applications. Therefore, designing a compact and...
Moderators are essential parts of neutron sources for neutron scattering experiments for both accelerator and reactor based sources. In accelerator driven sources particularly spallation sources it is much easier and more cost effective to change performance by changing the moderator than by changing the accelerator. The balance of neutron flux, brightness, resolution, and energy...
Abstract
Neutron sources are important for the R&D of advanced nuclear energy systems and extended nuclear technology applications. FDS Consortium has developed series neutron sources for different applications, including the Mini Neutron Generator MINEG, Compact Neutron Source CONEG, High Intensity Neutron Source HINEG and Volumetric Neutron Source VNEG.
MINEG, with minimal...
