摘要

We have optimized a cold neutron moderator to be operated at the RIKEN accelerator-driven compact neutron source (RANS) to broaden cold neutron applications and provide more choices for RANS users. We selected a safe and easy to manage material, mesitylene, as the RANS cold moderator. An efficient moderator system was designed by studying and optimizing a coupled cold neutron moderator of mesitylene at 20 K with a polyethylene (PE) pre-moderator at room temperature in the slab geometry with Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System (PHITS) simulations. The parameters of mesitylene and PE thickness, the reflector, and the shielding configuration were studied to increase cold neutron intensities within [0.1 meV, 10 meV] and thermal neutron intensities within [10 meV, 100 meV]. Consequently, an integrated cold neutron intensity of 1.15 ×10~3n/cm~2/μA at 2 m from the neutron-producing target was finally achieved, which was 12 times higher than that of the current RANS moderator with 4 cm PE according to simulation results. The cold and thermal neutron intensities of the optimized cold neutron moderator was compared with a cold neutron source based on solid methane, which has a beryllium target and the same proton energy as RANS. The results showed attractive application prospect of mesitylene as cold neutron moderator material.
