9. Beryllium target for proton-induced neutron production: CoolGal

Alberto Monetti (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

Compact accelerator-driven neutron sources (CANS) provide excellent opportunities for generating intense neutron beams. As research nuclear reactors close, CANS provide a cost-effective alternative, supporting communities that rely on advanced neutron instrumentation; in addition, their distributed nature allows for broader accessibility, including use as training centers. The potential...

12. HBS Tantalum Target Development for Neutron Production at HiCANS

Within the HBS (High Brilliance neutron Source) project, the Jülich Centre for neutron Science (JCNS) at Forschungszentrum Jülich has developed a new kind of HiCANS which shall serve as a competitive user facility. One of its key components is the neutron target designed to operate at a 70 MeV proton beam. It is designed as a stationary solid tantalum target consisting of three layers as shown...

18. Miniaturized Microdosimeters for Hadron Therapy

Microdosimetry is a spectrometric technique which measures energy imparted by ionizing radiation in sensitive volumes of micrometric dimensions. Starting from microdosimetric quantities it is possible to derive radiation quality descriptors of interest for the clinics, such as the Linear Energy Transfer (LET) or a physics-based estimation of the Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE), using...

23. Radiation protection benchmark to test nuclear models between a nucleon within energy range 20 and 200 MeV and a light nucleus (C, N, O)

EURADOS has established that there is a weakness [1] in the nuclear model concerning the interaction of a
nucleon with an energy of between 20 and 200 MeV with light nuclei, primarily carbon, nitrogen and oxygen.
However, this type of interaction is fundamental for describing the transport of nucleons in the human body
as in secondary dose calculation in protontherapy for example. This type...
