Abstract:In this study, a neutron calibration field of a 241Am-Be standard source at the Institute for Nuclear Science and Technology is characterized in terms of neutron spectral fluxes and neutron ambient dose equivalent ( ) rates based on ISO 8529 recommended generalized fit method together with measurements using a Bonner Sphere Spectrometer and MAXED unfolding techniques. The total, direct and scattered neutron components as well as rates and neutron spectral fluxes are separated from each other. The direct rates… Show more
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.
