How Can I Find Real Accelerators for BNCT Data Comparison?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the search for real accelerator-based neutron sources for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) to compare with MCNP-X output data. The user is conducting research using a 2.5 MeV imaginary accelerator and seeks guidance on locating relevant theses or data. Suggestions include utilizing Google to search for resources related to Kyoto and BNCT. A specific link to a paper from the Cyclotrons 2010 conference is provided as a potential resource. The conversation highlights the challenge of finding applicable real-world data for BNCT research.

Hello All
I'm doing my theses in BNCT(Boron neutron capture therapy).I did it with 2.5 Mev imaginary accelerator.
there are many reactors to compare my data with theirs.but Unfortunately I couldn't find some Real accelerators based on BNCT to compare my MCNP-X output data with theirs.
could u please guide me.
How can I find them?

Hello, I'm currently trying to compare theoretical results with an MCNP simulation. I'm using two discrete sets of data, intensity (probability) and linear attenuation coefficient, both functions of energy, to produce an attenuated energy spectrum after x-rays have passed through a thin layer of lead. I've been running through the calculations and I'm getting a higher average attenuated energy (~74 keV) than initial average energy (~33 keV). My guess is I'm doing something wrong somewhere...
