Diffraction scattering of 6Li ions from atomic nuclei
Abstract
The possibility of the application of superconducting electron linear accelerator as a driver for the prototype of future accelerator-driven nuclear power plants with sub-critical assemblies is considered. The linac will operate in continuous-wave mode with maximal pulse repetition rate of 13 MHz. The maximal electron beam energy will be 130 MeV with average current 1 mA. For selected design of sub-critical assembly the neutron fluxes inside the neutron production target, core and reflector have been calculated by means of the ORNL SCALE5 code, as well as using the Geant4- based RaT 3.0 code developed in NSC KIPT.
