In this research, dose calculation and measurement from B10 (n, α) Li7 reaction usingfiltered neutron beam at the Nuclear Research Institute have been reported. Calculation was carried out by Monte Carlo method using MCNP5 code. Neutron activation technique using vanadium foil was employed to determine neutron flux at various positions in phantom from which neutron dose has been calculated using conversion factor. These calculations are basics for the dose determination research of the Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) in Vietnam.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
