Description

The HANARO Cold neutron Research Facility (CNRF) construction project was formulated since early 2003. During the feasibility study, a user survey on cold neutron instruments, which includes SANS, TAS, TOF spectrometer, spin-echo spectrometer, neutron interferometer, powder-Laue diffractometer, etc., were performed. Beside these instruments, CNRF especially includes the neutron activation analysis instruments using the cold neutron beams. At present, a Cold Neutron Activation Station (CONAS) has been under construction with a support by the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) since May 2010. CONAS consists of Neutron Depth Profiling (NDP) and Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis (PGAA) instruments. This project will finish in April 2012. In order to estimate the CONAS, the MCNPX code was adopted in this study for estimating and optimizing the setup parameters of these instruments
