Abstract
This study aimed to verify whether neutron energy and flux could be simultaneously measured by a new technique that used array-type threshold detectors. Neutrons generated by nuclear reactions between 26-MeV protons and beryllium targets in the KIRAMS MC50 cyclotronwere measured using array-type threshold detectors fabricated by superimposing four array-type activation foils composed of Au, Ag, In, and Cu. The measurement results were compared to the simulation results obtained using MCNPX and FISPACT codes. The study results showed that the spatial distribution of high-speed neutrons was mostly concentrated at the center of the beam whereas that of thermal neutronswas relatively sparse at the center of the beam.

에너지별로 중성자의 분포를 동시에 측정할 수 있는 방법을 제시했는데, 전산모사와 측정을 병행하여 중성자의 에너지에 따라 분포가 달라짐을 확인한 것이 흥미로왔다.
