The HOmogeneous Thermal NEutron Source (HOTNES) is a new type of thermal neutron irradiation assembly developed by the ENEA-INFN collaboration. facility fully characterized in terms field and dosimetric quantities, either computational experimental methods. This paper reports results first "HOTNES users program"", carried out 2016, covering variety active detectors such as scintillators, solid-state, single crystal diamond gaseous detectors.
Radiation-resistant, gamma-insensitive, active thermal neutron detectors were developed to monitor the cavity of E_LIBANS project. Silicon and silicon carbide semiconductors, plus vented air ion chambers, chosen for this purpose. This communication describes performance these detectors, owing on results dedicated measurement campaigns.
In the framework of developing instrumentation aimed at measuring radiation quality, a new production improved silicon microdosimeters based on Monolithic Silicon Telescope (MST) technology has been recently finalized. Reduced dead layer, high fluence rate capability and better chord length distribution have obtained thorough modified process design. Electrical functional tests successfully completed are presented.
The e_LiBANS project aims at producing intense thermal neutron fields for diverse interdisciplinary irradiation purposes. It makes use of a reconditioned medical electron LINAC, recently installed the Physics Department and INFN in Torino, coupled to dedicated photo-converter, developed within this collaboration, that uses (γ,n) reaction high Z targets. Produced neutrons are then moderated energies concentrated an volume. To measure characterize real time field inside cavity new detectors...
The e_LiBANS project aims at creating accelerator based compact neutron facilities for diverse interdisciplinary applications. After the successful setting up and characterization of a thermal source on medical electron LINAC, similar assembly epithermal neutrons has been developed. is an Elekta 18 MV LINAC coupled with photoconverter-moderator system which deploys ({\gamma},n) photonuclear reaction to convert bremsstrahlung photon beam into field. This communication describes development...
