摘要：
Various spallation sources have been used to transmute long-lived radioactive waste, mostly making use of the wide energy neutron fluence. In addition to neutrons, a large number of protons and gamma rays are also emitted from these sources. In this paper Cd-nat is proved to be a useful activation detector for determining both thermal-epithermal neutron as well as secondary proton fluences. The fluences measured with Cd-nat compared with other experimental data and calculations of DCM-DEM code were found to be in reasonable agreement. An accumulation of therma-epithermal neutrons around the center of the target (i.e. after approx. 10 cm) and of secondary protons towards the end of the target is observed. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
