Calculation of displacements per atom distributions in solid materials

  • 1. Center of Technological Applications and Nuclear Developments, Havana City (Cuba)

Description

The results of the calculations of the displacements per atom distribution induced by the gamma irradiation on YBa2Cu3O(7-X) superconductor and Iron slabs up to 15 MeV are presented. Firstly, a calculation procedure for the displacements cross sections and the displacements per atom distributions was introduced, relaying on the application of the energy flux distribution values of secondary electrons, formerly calculated using the Monte Carlo methods based code system MCNPX. Finally, calculation results of displacements per atom distribution were compared with the corresponding energy deposition profiles, obtaining nearly linear correlations among them at different depth positions for a wide range of Gamma Radiation initial energy
