Abstract
The neutron exposure accelerator system for biological effect experiments (NASBEE) was developed to study biological effects of fast neutrons. We have characterized the NASBEE neutron beams with neutron energy spectrum, absorbed dose energy distributions, and space distributions. The neutron energy spectrum shows 2.3 MeV as mean energy and 3.0 MeV as kerma of tissue‐equivalent‐plastic (A150) weighted mean energy, and the maximum neutron energy was determined to be 9 MeV. Neutron absorbed doses occupy 82% of the NASBEE neutron beam. NASBEE has been used to learn some of the outcomes of the biological effects of fast neutrons.
