ARRS

Same of the international ongoing projects:



JSI-CEA collaboration project: Epithermal neutron flux determination and validation of nuclear cross-sections and through activation measurements employing neutron spectrum filters
Objectives:
-    Identification of combinations nuclear reactions and neutron spectrum filters (boron nitride, natural and enriched boron carbide) with a sensitivity in the epithermal energy range of the neutron spectrum.
-    Experimental measurements of the reaction rates at the JSI TRIGA reactor
-    Feedback information on the suitability of the reaction-filter combinations, dosimetry nuclear data validation
Publications:
-    Radulović, V., Trkov, A., Jaćimović, R., Gregoire, G., Destouches, C., Use of boron nitride for neutron spectrum characterization and cross-section validation in the epithermal range through integral activation measurements, Nucl. Inst. Meth. A, 840, 5-14, 2016.



NATO SPS project: E-SiCure - Engineering silicon carbide for enhanced borders and ports security
Main objective: combine theoretical, experimental and applied research towards the development of radiation-hard SiC-based detectors of special nuclear materials (SNM). This will be achieved through material manipulation processes in order to control defects responsible for detection efficiency limitations.
Publications:
