Abstract
The paper deals with the characterization of the neutron output during operation the neutron generator in the pulsing mode. The characterization is performed by a cadmium covered He-3 detector. First, the adequacy of a cadmium covered He-3 detector to study the pulsed mode operation of neutron generator is assessed using Monte Carlo simulations in MCNP6 code. Second, the pulsing mode operation of the D-D P-385 Thermo Fisher Scientific neutron generator with a maximal neutron output of 7 x 106 n/s is studied. The study shows the dependence of neutron emission and pulse shapes on the frequency, duty factor, high voltage and beam current.
