Abstract

Studies were carried out to collimator modelling and dosimetry BNCT of in vitro and in vivo test using MCNP-X code. Collimator modelling performed to obtain neutron beam as required by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Dosimetry calculations performed to obtain the results of the dose calculation (dosimetry) in the application of BNCT.  Collimator modelling and dosimetry simulations performed with MCNPX program. Neutron sources used for simulation, namely cyclotrons HM-30, energy 30 MeV, the current is 1.1 mA. Collimator modelling utilizes to program MCNPX covers cells target as beryllium, collimator wall (reflector), moderate, filter, gamma-ray shielding, and aperture. The simulation results of the modelling are Φepi 1.02241x1010 n/cm2 s, Df/Φepi 2.36487x10-11 Gy-cm2/n, Dγ/Φepi 4.68416x10-12 Gy-cm2/n, Φth/Φepi 3.76285x10-01, J/Φepi 8.37678x103. Based on the calculation of the dose rate that has been done, the result that the optimal dose rate at a depth of 1cm.

Abstract

A research of design of double layer collimator using 9Be(p,n) neutron source has been conducted. The research objective is to design a double layer collimator to obtain neutron sources that are compliant with the IAEA standards. The approach to the design of double layer collimator used the MCNPX code. From the research, it was found that the optimum dimensions of a beryllium target are 0.01 mm in length and 9.5 cm in radius. Collimator consists of a D2O and Al moderator, Pb and Ni as a reflector, and Cd and Fe as a thermal and fast neutron filter. The gamma filter used Bi and Pb. The quality neutron beams emitted from the double layer collimator is specified by five parameters: epithermal neutron flux 1 ×109 n/cm2s; fast neutron dose per epithermal neutron flux 5 ×1013 Gy cm2s; gamma dose per epithermal neutron flux 1×1013 Gy cm2s; ratio of the thermal neutron flux of epithermal neutron flux 0; and the ratio of epithermal neutron current to total epithermal neutron 0.54.

Abstract

A Double Layer Beam Shaping Assembly (DLBSA) is designed to produce epithermal neutrons for BNCT purposes. The MCNPX program is utilized as the software to design the DLBSA and phantom. Distribution of epithermal neutron and gamma flux in the DLBSA and phantom and absorbed dose in phantom are computed using the Particle and Heavy Ion Transport System (PHITS) program. Testing results of epithermal neutron beams irradiation on water phantom shows that epithermal neutrons are thermalized and penetrate the phantom up to 12 cm in depth. Maximum value of absorbed dose is 2 x 10-3 Gy at a depth of 2 cm in phantom.
