Description

Ten mono-energetic neutron irradiation fields have been developed at the Facility of Radiation Standards in Nuclear Science Research Institute. In these fields, mono-energetic neutrons can be stably generated over a wide energy range with five digits from 8 keV to 19 MeV using an accelerator and they are used for the performance test of the neutron detectors.
