LVR-15 reactor epithermal neutron beam parameters--results of measurements.
The epithermal neutron beam of the LVR-15 reactor provides the appropriate conditions for varied BNCT activity. The principal parameters have been frequently determined. The following detectors have been used for the measurement: set of activation monitors of different nuclides irradiated in free beam and in the water phantom, Si semiconductor detector with (6)LiF converter, twin ionization chambers, thermoluminescence dosimeters, gel dosimeters used for imaging of separate part of dose, neutron spectrometer of Bonner type. Obtained results of measured parameters are presented in the paper.
