Abstract

The Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics (BINP) Novosibirsk proposed a highly intense 14 MeV neutron source based on a gas dynamic trap (GDT) [1], The GDT is an axisymmetric mirror plasma device. In case of the complete effectiveness at the necessary parameters this type of neutron source promises several advantages in comparison to other proposals [2]. Its actual disadvantage is the incomplete data base which does not yet allow a reliable interpolation of its feasibility. To close this gap is the goal of the experimental and computational research presently being under way.
