The prior design of a GDT-based fusion neutron source was optimized based on a refreshed understanding of GDT operation. A two-step progressive development route of a GDT-based fusion neutron source was suggested. Potential applications of GDT are discussed. Preliminary analyses show that a fusion neutron source based on the GDT concept is suitable for plasma-material interaction research, fusion material and subcomponent testing, and capable of driving a proof-of-principle fusion fission hybrid experimental facility.展开更多

To this end, we investigate the feasibility and expected impact of a possible experiment at EicC(Electron-ion collider in China). We show the simulation results on the statistical precision of an EicC measurement, based on the model of leading neutron tagged DIS process and the parton distribution functions of the pion from JAM18 global analysis. The simulation shows that at EicC, the kinematics cover the x π range from 0.01 to 1, and the Q2 range from 1 to 50 GeV2, within the acceptable statistical uncertainty. Assuming an integrated luminosity of 50 fb-1, in the low-Q2 region(< 10 GeV2), the Monte Carlo data show that the suggested measurement in the whole x π range reaches very high precision(< 3%). To perform such an experiment, only the addition of a far-forward neutron calorimeter is needed.展开更多
