Abstract

This study aims to investigate the neutronic characteristics of spallation targets for Accelerator-Driven subcritical System (ADS) and find the optimal target design for reducing the strength of the required beam current. All the calculations were conducted using the MCNP6.1 with cross-section library ENDF/B-VII. In this study, the influence of several parameters on spallation targets is investigated, such as neutron production with various spallation target layouts, spallation neutron distribution with different proton beam energy levels, and spallation neutron spectrum.
