Abstract:We present an overview of ongoing work on three types of neutron flux monitors under investigation and development for the two European ITER Test Blanket Modules: 1) a neutron activation system, 2) silicon carbide diodes, 3) selfpowered neutron detectors for fast neutrons. A pneumatic test system for neutronics tests for a TBM-NAS was constructed at the DT neutron generator laboratory of Technical University of Dresden. Several irradiations have been performed with focus on the simultaneous measurement of the … Show more
