Description

In this work, the rate of radiation damage production in a uranium target of the neutron source at NSC KIPT under electrons irradiation with an energy of 100 MeV was estimated. The contribution of elastic and inelastic processes is determined: high-energy electrons and gamma quanta, photo-neutron production, fragments arising from photo-fission, damage from neutrons. It was found that the main input into damage production in a uranium target give fragments of photo-fission. (author)
