The MCNPX and MCNP5C codes are used to simulate the reaction 9Be(p,n)9B. The photons and neutrons intensities resulting of this reaction are calculated as a functions of the 9Be target thickness. To calculate this intensity, the protons with energ y 15.0MeV and protons current 200.0μA are used. In addition, the angular distribution of the emitted photons and neutrons from the reaction 9Be(p,n)9B is calculated as a function of the 9Be target thickness. The maximum value of the photons and neutrons flux is found to be at angle 00 for thin targets. The calculated values using MCNPX of the neutrons spectrum emission from reactions of 9Be(p,n)9B and 207Pb(p,n) is compared to experimental values. There is a good agreement between them.
The MCNP5-beta code was used to calculate the reaction rate and the neutron energy response matrix of a neutron spectrometry consisting of a Polyethylene sphere with variable diameter and BF3 detector, using point and disk neutron sources, the reacti on rate and the response matrix of disk neutron source shows higher values than those obtained for point neutron source in addition the response with disk neutron source at the energy range shows a maximum value for sphere of 10 inch diameter where the response with point neutron source stile increasing in this condition .The results obtained in this work for the disk neutron source agreed well with published results.
The analytical relationship that gives the neutron beam flux does not take into account the probability of decay. In this research, we concluded the analytical relationship of the probability non decay of free neutron during the passage of the sam ple to be analyzed by NAA. And the conclusion of the analytical relationship to the probability of non-capture of the free neutron during the its passage of the sample to be analyzed by NAA in a simpler method than the previous conclusion. We conducted an application study to investigate the effect of the probability non decay of free neutrons, that flowing through sample, On the flux of transient neutron beam, for neutron beam with various large thickness samples and for different energies of neutrons. The effect of probability of neutron decay on neutron beam flux could not be negligible for all the energies which are bigger than of thermal.
In this study, a simulation of the MTR-22MW reactor and a study of standard and mixed fuel combustion using the Codes GETERA and MCNP5. The Results of the simulation showed that the operation time of the reactor in the case of standard fuel is 274 days and if the use of mixed fuel is 135 days.
This papers reports the investigation of extensions of the group by means of the cyclic group A=<a> of order p, where p is a prime number. It has been concluded from this work that, all non isomorphic extensions of the group C(n) by means of the group A ,that correspond to irreducible representations of the group A , are: - p Z
