Caractérisation des Distributions Spatiales des Flux de Neutrons à l'aide des Détecteurs Solides de Traces Nucléaires
Keywords:
Détecteurs Solides de Traces Nucléaires, Réacteur Nucléaire, Détection des Neutrons, Flux de neutrons.Abstract
Une technique de caractérisation de la distribution spatiale du flux de neutrons du canalneutronographique du réacteur nucléaire NUR est présentée. Cette technique est basée sur la
visualisation dans un détecteur solide de traces nucléaires des impacts des particules chargées
issues des réactions nucléaires induites par les neutrons dans un convertisseur boré des neutrons
en particules chargées.
