Triple-mode detector for fast neutrons, slow neutrons, and gamma ray spectroscopy

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus related to neutron detection and gamma ray detection. In one aspect, a detector comprises a scintillator structure that comprises an organic scintillator and an inorganic scintillator. The organic scintillator is in the form of one or more elements of a specified length. The inorganic scintillator is in the form of one or more elements of the specified length. First ends of the one or more organic scintillator elements and first ends of the one or more inorganic scintillator elements define a first surface. Second ends of the one or more organic scintillator elements and second ends of the one or more inorganic scintillator elements define a second surface.

As-Run Physics Analysis for the AGC-4 Experiment Irradiated in the ATR

This Engineering Calculations Analysis Report (ECAR) documents the results of the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) detailed physics analyses performed to calculate the displacements per atom (DPA) and the fast neutron fluence (E > 0.1 MeV) of the Advanced Graphite Creep (AGC) experiment, AGC-4, irradiated in the ATR East Flux Trap (EFT) (see Figure 1) during ATR Cycle 157D, 158A, 162A, 162B, 164A, 164B, 166A, and Cycle 166B. This ECAR also reports the neutron and photon heat rates for the materials of the AGC-4 experiment for ATR Cycle 158A (timestep 19), which provides to the maximum heating. The results for these evaluations and analysis are reported herein. The AGC-4 as-run specimen neutron fast fluence (E > 0.1 MeV), DPA, and material heat rate calculations were performed using a general-purpose Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) code. All calculated results are tabulated herein.
