[Nuclear processes on operation of linear accelerators (author's transl)]. 1981

T Kaulich, and W Seeger

The primary nuclear reactions possibly occurring in accelerators operated on an energy level between 8 and 20 MeV are outlined, and their probability is estimated. Furthermore, the authors discuss which photoneutron rates par micron As are to be expected in case of different threshold energies in a tungsten sheet with a thickness of 6 mm and which secondary nuclear processes are induced by the photoneutrons.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009502 Neutrons Electrically neutral elementary particles found in all atomic nuclei except light hydrogen; the mass is equal to that of the proton and electron combined and they are unstable when isolated from the nucleus, undergoing beta decay. Slow, thermal, epithermal, and fast neutrons refer to the energy levels with which the neutrons are ejected from heavier nuclei during their decay. Neutron
D010315 Particle Accelerators Devices which accelerate electrically charged atomic or subatomic particles, such as electrons, protons or ions, to high velocities so they have high kinetic energy.
