Originální abstrakt

Neutron flux is an important parameter for Accelerated Driven Systems. Density of the neutron flux is different in various positions inside a spallation target. The neutron flux can be obtained with the use of threshold activation detectors. An experiment with the spallation target made of 512 kg natural uranium and deuteron beam with energy 8 GeV was performed at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research. Ten samples of Co-59 were irradiated of the secondary neutrons inside the spallation target at different positions. The reaction rates were determined by the gamma-ray spectroscopy with threshold activation detectors. The neutron flux was calculated by reaction rates. The experimental results were compared with Monte Carlo simulations.
