Abstract

The web-based application NEBOAS was developed to calculate the neutron yield of the accelerator-based neutron source MONNET (MONo-energetic NEutron Tower) at JRC-Geel. Neutrons are produced with p and d-induced reactions on particular targets. NEBOAS provides double differential neutron yields, as a function of the angle of neutron emission and energy. It provides also integrated neutron yields, and neutron energy spectra. Any projectile energy may be utilized, as long as it is covered by the nuclear data available on thin targets (that just degrade the projectiles' energy) or thick targets (that stop the projectiles). The calculation employs reaction cross-section evaluations from Evaluated Nuclear Data File (ENDF) or compilations of experimental measurements from the Experimental Nuclear Reaction Data (EXFOR), and stopping powers as recommended in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) or the Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter (SRIM-2013) databases.
