The transport processes of a neutron in the multi-sphere spectrometer are simulated using the Geant4 code. Two sets of response functions of the PE spheres are obtained for calculating the^(241)Am–Be neutron spectrum.Response Function 1 utilizes the thermal neutron scattering model G4 Neutron HPThermal Scattering for neutron energies of ≤4 eV, and Response Function 2 has no thermal treatment. Neutron spectra of an^(241)Am–Be neutron source are measured and compared to those calculated by using the response functions. The results show that response function with thermal treatment is more accurate and closer to the real spectrum.展开更多

This device was developed on the basis of previous Bonner sphere spectrometry (BSS), aiming to obtain a more accurate neutron spectrum in the HL-2A tokamak hall. The previous BSS contained eight Bonner spheres (BS). This EBSS contains 13 3He-filled detectors embedded in polyethylene spheres (PS), pre-amplifiers, and a parallel processing data acquisition system (DAQ). A response matrix is simulated in Geant4 taking the effect of the environment into account.展开更多
