Description

Book Synopsis

Despite the often difficult and time-consuming effort of performing experiments with fast (14 MeV) neutrons, these neutrons can offer special insight into nucleus and other materials because of the absence of charge. 14 MeV Neutrons: Physics and Applications explores fast neutrons in basic science and applications to problems in medicine, the environment, and security.

Drawing on his more than 50 years of experience working with 14 MeV neutrons, the author focuses on:

  • Sources of 14 MeV neutrons, including laboratory size accelerators, small and sealed tube generators, well logging sealed tube accelerators, neutron generators with detection of associated alpha particles, plasma devices, high flux sources, and laser-generated neutron sources
  • Nuclear reactions with 14 MeV neutrons, including measurements of energy spectra, angular distributions, and deductions of reaction mechanism
  • Nuclear reactions with three particles in

    Table of Contents

    Introduction. Nuclear Reaction d+t→α+n. Sources of 14 MeV Neutrons. Detectors. Nuclear Reactions Induced by 14 MeV Neutrons. Fast Neutron Activation Analysis: An Analytical Method. Applications of Tagged Neutron Beams. Nuclear Reactions Logging. Medical Applications of 14 MeV Neutrons.
