  1. 1. Modelling the evolution of an ion beam through a 3 MV Pelletron accelerator

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Niek van Woudenberg; [2021]
    Keywords : accelerator modelling; ion-beam transport; Pelletron simulation; 3D simulation; cross-validation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work simulations of the LIBAF Pelletron were performed to gain insight into the parameters that govern the machine operation and control. Three simulation packages: COMSOL, WARP and TURTLE/TRANSPORT were employed, and cross-validation of these software packages was performed by test-case simulations. READ MORE

  2. 2. Development of a Neutron Activation Analysis station at the Lund Ion Beam Analysis Facility

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

  3. 3. Characterisation of a neutron experimental station at the Lund Ion Beam Analysis Facility

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Markus Kristensson; [2018]
    Keywords : neutrons; fast neutrons; thermal neutrons; neutron production; fusion; target materials; moderators; moderator materials; beam dump materials; neutron detection; neutron detector; coincidence measurements; nuclear physics; LIBAF; Lund Ion Beam Analysis Facility; particle accelerator; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : At the 3 MeV light ion accelerator of the Lund Ion Beam Analysis Facility (LIBAF), a beamline is about to be constructed with the purpose of producing neutrons as a higher yield complement to the current Source-Testing Facility. When operational, the beamline will provide the possibility of tagging both thermal and fast neutrons. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Characteristics of B4C Coated Scintillators

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Anton Bodahl; [2016]
    Keywords : B4C; Scintillators; Coincidence Measurements; LIBAF; Homogenity Measurements; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The characteristics of Boron Carbide (B4C) coated polyvinyltoluene scintillators with a sputtered B4C coating ranging between 200 and 1000 nm have been studied using a photomultiplier - Lanthanum Bromide detector setup with a PuBe neutron source. The raw data from the detectors was analysed by imposing a detector coincidence condition. READ MORE
