Measurement of the thermal neutron distribution in a water phantom using a cyclotron based neutron source for boron neutron capture therapy

We have been developed an epithermal neutron source for boron neutron capture therapy(BNCT), consisting of a cyclotron accelerator that can provide a ~ 1 mA, 30 MeV proton beam, a neutron production beryllium target and the moderator that can reduce the energy of fast neutrons to an effective energy...
