Design development of double-layer beam shaping assembly using extension nozzle to increase the quality of epithermal neutron beam as a boron neutron capture therapy neutron source
Double layer beam shaping assembly (DLBSA) is a system that moderates fast neutrons into epithermal neutrons. The epithermal neutrons that leave the aperture in the DLBSA system are broadened in the space, thereby reducing the intensity and homogeneity of the epithermal neutron beams. Therefore, it...
