Systematic error studies in measurement of neutron multiplication

  • 1. Southwest Inst. of Nuclear Physics and Chemistry, Chengdu (China)

Description

Systematic errors in measurement of neutron multiplication have been experimentally studied. The neutron multiplications in Pb, 15 cm in thickness, have been measured with the moderators of 41 and 46 cm thick. The validity of the experimental principle was verified with a small polyethylene sphere 10 cm in thickness. It is found that the reproducibility of TAD system is satisfactory. The flux perturbation of enriched Li glass detectors to neutron field was studied in detail. The corrections in the moderator were calculated and a new analyzed with 1-D ANISN code and ENDF/B-VI library data. (author). 11 refs, 2 figs, 4 tabs
