Abstract

The invention discloses a small neutron generator which outputs high-flux neutrons in a specific direction. A rectangular penning ion source educes deuterium ions or deuterium tritium mixed ions with a certain width, and the ions bombard a long directional target under the coaxial electric field acceleration so as to generate high-flux neutrons in the axis direction of the target. Because the rectangular penning ion source and the long direction target can be prolonged randomly according to the requirements, the intensity of the ion beam output from the ion source, the power bore by the long directional target and the corresponding neutron yield are greatly improved. The axial projected area of the long directional target is small, so that the neutron flux level is 1 to 2 higher than that of the normal neutron generator in the axial direction; the small directional high-flux neutron generator is applicable to the fields which have direction requirements, such as neutron therapy, picture taking and explosive detection.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the nuclear technology and application fields, in particular to a small accelerator neutron generator. Background technique [0002] Small neutron sources are generally divided into radioactive neutron sources and accelerator neutron sources. The radioactive neutron source uses radionuclides to generate neutrons, with low yield and short life. The accelerator has a high yield of neutron sources, and no neutrons are produced after the power is turned off. It is convenient to use, has good controllability and high safety. [0003] The accelerator neutron source uses the deuterium ions or deuterium-tritium mixed ions produced by the ion source, and is accelerated by an accelerating electric field to obtain higher energy. D / D or D / T fusion reaction occurs on the target, and it is released in the 4π direction. child. When the ion beam bombards the target, it produces high energy deposition. Even under the condition of water cooli...
