Abstract:
In order to meet the increasing needs of the electronics industry for neutron single-event-effect testing the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source designed and built a new test facility, ChipIr, on its Second Target Station. The ChipIr design presented a number of challenges and opportunities as it was the first time a fast-neutron beamline had been incorporated into an existing target...
Abstract:
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), presently the highest power spallation neutron source worldwide, is in the final stages of its power upgrade from 1.4 to 2.8 MW. I will discuss the facility performance with particular focus on the opportunities offered by the high power to support applications in addition to the primary neutron...
Abstract:
IFMIF-DONES (International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility – DEMO Oriented Neutron Source) [1,2] is a pioneering accelerator-based neutron irradiation facility currently under construction in Granada, Spain. It is a part of the European roadmap to fusion electricity and a key laboratory to prepare for the construction of the DEMO fusion power plant.
The main mission of...
Abstract:
The capabilities of neutron time of flight (n_TOF) spallation facility at CERN was investigated for electronics testing, as the demand of testing in such facilities is increasing and their availability in the worlds is limited. The neutron fields in a recently consolidated irradiation station (NEAR) are studied through Monte Carlo simulations, well-characterized...
