Tasks

  • Realization and characterisation of calibration fields with monoenergetic neutrons in the energy range En between 1.2 keV and 20 MeV
  • Characterisation of neutron calibration fields at external facilities:
    • iThemba, Cape Fown: quasi-monoenergetic neutrons (60 MeV < En < 200 MeV)
  • Realization of calibration fields for high energy photons (Eγ > 3 MeV)
  • Determination of the (spectral) neutron fluence
  • Calculation of the neutron energy distribution from neutron producing targets
  • Monte Carlo simulation of experiments
  • Participation in international comparisons
  • Irradiations and calibrations of detectors and dosemeters in (quasi-) monoenergetic neutron fields and in neutron fields with broad energy distributions (Be+p, Be+d)
  • Development and investigation of neutron detectors and calculation of their energy dependent response
  • Production and characterisation of neutron fields for radio-biological experiments
