Studies of the High-Intensity Field of Intermediate Neutrons of a BR-K1 Reactor

A new high-intensity source of intermediate neutrons in the center of the active zone of a powerful pulsed BRK1 reactor has been created. Measurement of the differential energy spectrum of neutrons in the source has been performed by the neutron-activation method, using the standardized KASKAD compu...

More Information
Summary:A new high-intensity source of intermediate neutrons in the center of the active zone of a powerful pulsed BRK1 reactor has been created. Measurement of the differential energy spectrum of neutrons in the source has been performed by the neutron-activation method, using the standardized KASKAD computational program. The neutron characteristics of the created source of neutrons have been compared with foreign analogues.
