BNCT(Boron Neutron Capture Therapy)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the need for academic resources related to the design and modeling of beam tubes for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) applications in nuclear reactors. Participants recommend utilizing databases like Web of Knowledge (WOK) to find relevant literature. Several specific journals are suggested, including Applied Radiation and Isotopes, Health Physics, and Progress in Nuclear Energy. An article cited 311 times from WOK is also shared as a valuable resource. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the importance of accessing scholarly databases for research on BNCT.

My research is about Design and modeling of beam tube of nuclear reactor for BNCT(Boron Neutron Capture Therapy) application and I need some journals and related books about it.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
thanks a lot for ur suggestion .could u please tell me some journals about it.
 
Oh.thanks.I've found every things in ur suggested article.

Are you a student, if so I think you should learn how to find literature about BNCT in databases e.g. Web of Knowledge(WOK). I find many journals about it using BNCT and reactor as topic in WOK. I list some journals as below:APPLIED RADIATION AND ISOTOPES, HEALTH PHYSICS PROGRESS IN NUCLEAR ENERGY ANNALS OF NUCLEAR ENERGY JOURNAL OF RADIOANALYTICAL AND NUCLEAR CHEMISTRY NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY and so on. Attachment is the article downloaded from WOK. It has been cited by 311 times. I hope this can help you.

Thread 'MCNP6 BURN Card Issue: Zero Burnup for Material in Fuel Assembly'

Hello everyone, I am currently working on a burnup calculation for a fuel assembly with repeated geometric structures using MCNP6. I have defined two materials (Material 1 and Material 2) which are actually the same material but located in different positions. However, after running the calculation with the BURN card, I am encountering an issue where all burnup information（power fraction(Initial input is 1,but output file is 0), burnup, mass, etc.） for Material 2 is zero, while Material 1...

Thread 'Beginner Seeking Help: MCNP6 Burnup Example (OECD-NEA Benchmark)'

Hi everyone, I'm a complete beginner with MCNP and trying to learn how to perform burnup calculations. Right now, I'm feeling a bit lost and not sure where to start. I found the OECD-NEA Burnup Credit Calculational Criticality Benchmark (Phase I-B) and was wondering if anyone has worked through this specific benchmark using MCNP6? If so, would you be willing to share your MCNP input file for it? Seeing an actual working example would be incredibly helpful for my learning. I'd be really...
