An Optimized D-T neutron Generator Shielding for Prompt Gamma Ray Neutron Activation Analysis of Light Elements

We present an MCNP analysis of optimal gamma-detector shielding materials and their thicknesses for 14 MeV D-T neutron generator for detection of light elements by prompt gamma ray neutron activation analysis. Tungsten seems to be the best choice for the primary neutron-beam shielding of a minimum t...
