Time-encoded imaging is useful for identifying potential special nuclear materials and other radioactive sources at a distance. In this study, a large field-of-view time-encoded imager was developed for gamma-ray and neutron source hotspot imaging based on a depth-of-interaction (DOI) detector. The imager primarily consists of a DOI detector system and a rotary dual-layer cylindrical coded mask. An EJ276 plastic scintillator coupled with two SiPMs was designed as the DOI detector to increase the field of view and improve the imager performance. The difference in signal time at both ends and the log of the signal amplitude ratio were used to calculate the interaction position resolution. The position resolution of the DOI detector was calibrated using a collimated Cs-137 source, and the full width at half maximum of the reconstruction position of the Gaussian fitting curve was approximately 4.4 cm. The DOI detector can be arbitrarily divided into several units to independently reconstruct the source distribution images. The unit length was optimized via Am-Be source-location experiments. A multidetector filtering method is proposed for image denoising. This method can effectively reduce image noise caused by poor DOI detector position resolution. The vertical field of view of the imager was (− 55°, 55°) when the detector was placed in the center of the coded mask. A DT neutron source at 20 m standoff could be located within 2400 s with an angular resolution of 3.5°.

时间编码成像技术可用于远距离识别潜在的特殊核材料和其他放射源。在这项研究中,开发了一种基于相互作用深度(DOI)探测器的大视场时间编码成像仪,用于伽马射线和中子源热点成像。该成像仪主要由一个 DOI 探测器系统和一个旋转式双层圆柱形编码掩模组成。为增加视场和提高成像仪性能,设计了一个与两个 SiPM 相结合的 EJ276 塑料闪烁体作为 DOI 探测器。两端的信号时间差和信号振幅比对数被用来计算相互作用的位置分辨率。使用准直铯-137 源校准了 DOI 探测器的位置分辨率,高斯拟合曲线重建位置的半最大全宽约为 4.4 厘米。DOI 探测器可任意分为多个单元,以独立重建源分布图像。单元长度通过 Am-Be 源定位实验进行了优化。提出了一种用于图像去噪的多探测器滤波方法。该方法可有效降低因 DOI 探测器位置分辨率低而导致的图像噪声。当探测器置于编码掩模中心时,成像仪的垂直视场为(- 55°,55°)。可以在 2400 秒内定位距离为 20 米的 DT 中子源,角度分辨率为 3.5°。

A molten salt reactor (MSR) has outstanding features considering the application of thorium fuel, inherent safety, sustainability, and resistance to proliferation. However, fissile material ({^{233}hbox {U}}) is significantly rare at the current stage, thus it is difficult for MSR to achieve a pure thorium-uranium fuel cycle. Therefore, using plutonium or enriched uranium as the initial fuel for MSR is more practical. In this study, we aim to verify the feasibility of a small modular MSR that utilizes plutonium as the starting fuel (SM-MSR-Pu), and highlight its advantages and disadvantages. First, the structural design and fuel management scheme of the SM-MSR-Pu were presented. Second, the neutronic characteristics, such as the graphite-irradiation lifetime, burn-up performance, and coefficient of temperature reactivity were calculated to analyze the physical characteristics of the SM-MSR-Pu. The results indicate that plutonium is a feasible and advantageous starting fuel for a SM-MSR; however, there are certain shortcomings that need to be solved. In a 250 MWth SM-MSR-Pu, approximately 288.64 kg ({^{233}hbox {U}}) of plutonium with a purity of greater than 90% is produced while 978.00 kg is burned every ten years. The temperature reactivity coefficient decreases from (-4.0) to (-6.5) pcm K(^{-1}) over the 50-year operating time, which ensures a long-term safe operation. However, the amount of plutonium and accumulation of minor actinides (MAs) would increase as the burn-up time increases, and the annual production and purity of ({^{233}hbox {U}}) will decrease. To achieve an optimal burn-up performance, setting the entire operation time to 30 years is advisable. Regardless, more than 3600 kg of plutonium eventually accumulate in the core. Further research is required to effectively utilize this accumulated plutonium.

考虑到钍燃料的应用、内在安全性、可持续性和抗扩散性,熔盐反应堆(MSR)具有突出的特点。然而,现阶段裂变材料十分稀缺,因此熔盐堆很难实现纯钍铀燃料循环。因此,使用钚或浓缩铀作为 MSR 的初始燃料更为实际。在本研究中,我们旨在验证利用钚作为初始燃料的小型模块化 MSR(SM-MSR-Pu)的可行性,并强调其优缺点。首先,介绍了 SM-MSR-Pu 的结构设计和燃料管理方案。其次,计算了石墨辐照寿命、燃烧性能和温度反应系数等中子特性,分析了 SM-MSR-Pu 的物理特性。结果表明,钚是 SM-MSR 的一种可行且有利的起始燃料,但仍有一些缺陷需要解决。在 250 MWth SM-MSR-Pu中,大约会产生288.64千克({^{233}hbox {U}})纯度大于90%的钚,而每十年会燃烧978.00千克。在 50 年的运行时间里,温度反应系数从 (-4.0) 下降到 (-6.5) pcm K(^{-1}) ,从而确保了长期安全运行。然而,钚的数量和微量锕系元素(MAs)的积累会随着燃烧时间的延长而增加,({^{233}hbox {U}})的年产量和纯度也会下降。为了达到最佳的燃烧性能,最好将整个运行时间设定为 30 年。无论如何,堆芯中最终会积累超过 3600 千克的钚。要有效利用这些积累的钚,还需要进一步的研究。

Because of their economy and applicability, high-power thyristor devices are widely used in the power supply systems for large fusion devices. When high-dose neutrons produced by deuterium–tritium (D–T) fusion reactions are irradiated on a thyristor device for a long time, the electrical characteristics of the device change, which may eventually cause irreversible damage. In this study, with the thyristor switch of the commutation circuit in the quench protection system (QPS) of a fusion device as the study object, the relationship between the internal physical structure and external electrical parameters of the irradiated thyristor is established. Subsequently, a series of targeted thyristor physical simulations and neutron irradiation experiments are conducted to verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis. In addition, the effect of irradiated thyristor electrical characteristic changes on the entire QPS is studied by accurate simulation, providing valuable guidelines for the maintenance and renovation of the QPS.

The High-energy Fragment Separator (HFRS), which is currently under construction, is a leading international radioactive beam device. Multiple sets of position-sensitive twin time projection chamber (TPC) detectors are distributed on HFRS for particle identification and beam monitoring. The twin TPCs’ readout electronics system operates in a trigger-less mode due to its high counting rate, leading to a challenge of handling large amounts of data. To address this problem, we introduced an event-building algorithm. This algorithm employs a hierarchical processing strategy to compress data during transmission and aggregation. In addition, it reconstructs twin TPCs’ events online and stores only the reconstructed particle information, which significantly reduces the burden on data transmission and storage resources. Simulation studies demonstrated that the algorithm accurately matches twin TPCs’ events and reduces more than 98% of the data volume at a counting rate of 500 kHz/channel.

目前正在建造的高能碎片分离器(HFRS)是国际领先的放射性束装置。高能碎片分离器上分布着多套位置敏感的双时间投影室(TPC)探测器,用于粒子识别和束流监测。由于双 TPC 的计数率很高,其读出电子系统以无触发模式运行,这给处理大量数据带来了挑战。为解决这一问题,我们引入了一种事件构建算法。该算法采用分层处理策略,在传输和聚合过程中压缩数据。此外,它还能在线重建孪生 TPC 事件,并只存储重建后的粒子信息,从而大大减轻了数据传输和存储资源的负担。仿真研究表明,该算法能准确匹配孪生 TPC 事件,并在 500 kHz/通道的计数率下减少了 98% 以上的数据量。

A dedicated weak current measurement system was designed to measure the weak currents generated by the neutron ionization chamber. This system incorporates a second-order low-pass filter circuit and the Kalman filtering algorithm to effectively filter out noise and minimize interference in the measurement results. Testing conducted under normal temperature conditions has demonstrated the system’s high precision performance. However, it was observed that temperature variations can affect the measurement performance. Data were collected across temperatures ranging from (-20) to (70;{^circ }{text{C}}), and a temperature correction model was established through linear regression fitting to address this issue. The feasibility of the temperature correction model was confirmed at temperatures of (-5) and ({40};{^circ }{text{C}}), where relative errors remained below 0.1(%) after applying the temperature correction. The research indicates that the designed measurement system exhibits excellent temperature adaptability and high precision, making it particularly suitable for measuring weak currents.

Dispersion fuels, knowned for their excellent safety performance, are widely used in advanced reactors, such as high-temperature gas-cooled reactors. Compared with deterministic methods, the Monte Carlo method has more advantages in the geometric modeling of stochastic media. The explicit modeling method has high computational accuracy and high computational cost. The chord length sampling (CLS) method can improve computational efficiency by sampling the chord length during neutron transport using the matrix chord length's probability density function. This study shows that the excluded-volume effect in realistic stochastic media can introduce certain deviations into the CLS. A chord length correction approach is proposed to obtain the chord length correction factor by developing the Particle code based on equivalent transmission probability. Through numerical analysis against reference solutions from explicit modeling in the RMC code, it was demonstrated that CLS with the proposed correction method provides good accuracy for addressing the excluded-volume effect in realistic infinite stochastic media.

An efficient parallel algorithm of variational nodal method for heterogeneous neutron transport problems 异质中子输运问题变分节点法的高效并行算法

The heterogeneous variational nodal method (HVNM) has emerged as a potential approach for solving high-fidelity neutron transport problems. However, achieving accurate results with HVNM in large-scale problems using high-fidelity models has been challenging due to the prohibitive computational costs. This paper presents an efficient parallel algorithm tailored for HVNM based on the Message Passing Interface standard. The algorithm evenly distributes the response matrix sets among processors during the matrix formation process, thus enabling independent construction without communication. Once the formation tasks are completed, a collective operation merges and shares the matrix sets among the processors. For the solution process, the problem domain is decomposed into subdomains assigned to specific processors, and the red-black Gauss-Seidel iteration is employed within each subdomain to solve the response matrix equation. Point-to-point communication is conducted between adjacent subdomains to exchange data along the boundaries. The accuracy and efficiency of the parallel algorithm are verified using the KAIST and JRR-3 test cases. Numerical results obtained with multiple processors agree well with those obtained from Monte Carlo calculations. The parallelization of HVNM results in eigenvalue errors of 31 pcm/(-)90 pcm and fission rate RMS errors of 1.22%/0.66%, respectively, for the 3D KAIST problem and the 3D JRR-3 problem. In addition, the parallel algorithm significantly reduces computation time, with an efficiency of 68.51% using 36 processors in the KAIST problem and 77.14% using 144 processors in the JRR-3 problem.

异质变分节点法(HVNM)已成为解决高保真中子输运问题的一种潜在方法。然而,由于计算成本过高,在使用高保真模型的大规模问题中使用 HVNM 取得精确结果一直是个挑战。本文基于消息传递接口标准,提出了一种为 HVNM 量身定制的高效并行算法。该算法在矩阵形成过程中将响应矩阵集平均分配给不同的处理器,从而实现了无需通信的独立构建。一旦矩阵形成任务完成,一个集体操作就会在处理器之间合并和共享矩阵集。在求解过程中,问题域被分解为分配给特定处理器的子域,并在每个子域内采用红黑高斯-赛德尔迭代来求解响应矩阵方程。相邻子域之间进行点对点通信,沿边界交换数据。并行算法的准确性和效率通过 KAIST 和 JRR-3 测试案例进行了验证。使用多处理器得到的数值结果与蒙特卡罗计算得到的结果非常吻合。对于三维 KAIST 问题和三维 JRR-3 问题,HVNM 的并行化导致的特征值误差分别为 31 pcm/(-)90 pcm,裂变率均方根误差分别为 1.22%/0.66%。此外,并行算法大大减少了计算时间,在 KAIST 问题中使用 36 个处理器的效率为 68.51%,在 JRR-3 问题中使用 144 个处理器的效率为 77.14%。

A new measurement method for the spatial distribution of neutron beam flux in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is being developed based on the two-dimensional Micromegas detector. To address the issue of long processing times in traditional offline position reconstruction methods, this paper proposes a field programmable gate array based online position reconstruction method utilizing the micro-time projection chamber principle. This method encapsulates key technical aspects: a self-adaptive serial link technique built upon the dynamical adjustment of the delay chain length, fast sorting, a coordinate-matching technique based on the mapping between signal timestamps and random access memory (RAM) addresses, and a precise start point-merging technique utilizing a circular combined RAM. The performance test of the self-adaptive serial link shows that the bit error rate of the link is better than 10−12 at a confidence level of 99%, ensuring reliable data transmission. The experiment utilizing the readout electronics and Micromegas detector shows a spatial resolution of approximately 1.4 mm, surpassing the current method’s resolution level of 5 mm. The beam experiment confirms that the readout electronics system can obtain the flux spatial distribution of neutron beams online, thus validating the feasibility of the position reconstruction method. The online position reconstruction method avoids traditional methods, such as bubble sorting and traversal searching, simplifies the design of the logic firmware, and reduces the time complexity from O(n2) to O(n). This study contributes to the advancement in measuring neutron beam flux for BNCT.

3D robust anisotropic diffusion filtering algorithm for sparse view neutron computed tomography 3D image reconstruction 用于稀疏视图中子计算机断层扫描三维图像重建的三维鲁棒各向异性扩散滤波算法

The most critical part of a neutron computed tomography (NCT) system is the image processing algorithm, which directly affects the quality and speed of the reconstructed images. Various types of noise in the system can degrade the quality of the reconstructed images. Therefore, to improve the quality of the reconstructed images of NCT systems, efficient image processing algorithms must be used. The anisotropic diffusion filtering (ADF) algorithm can not only effectively suppress the noise in the projection data, but also preserve the image edge structure information by reducing the diffusion at the image edges. Therefore, we propose the application of the ADF algorithm for NCT image reconstruction. To compare the performance of different algorithms in NCT systems, we reconstructed images using the ordered subset simultaneous algebraic reconstruction technique (OS-SART) algorithm with different regular terms as image processing algorithms. In the iterative reconstruction, we selected two image processing algorithms, the Total Variation and split Bregman solved total variation algorithms, for comparison with the performance of the ADF algorithm. Additionally, the filtered back-projection algorithm was used for comparison with an iterative algorithm. By reconstructing the projection data of the numerical and clock models, we compared and analyzed the effects of each algorithm applied in the NCT system. Based on the reconstruction results, OS-SART-ADF outperformed the other algorithms in terms of denoising, preserving the edge structure, and suppressing artifacts. For example, when the 3D Shepp–Logan was reconstructed at 25 views, the root mean square error of OS-SART-ADF was the smallest among the four iterative algorithms, at only 0.0292. The universal quality index, mean structural similarity, and correlation coefficient of the reconstructed image were the largest among all algorithms, with values of 0.9877, 0.9878, and 0.9887, respectively.

中子计算机断层扫描(NCT)系统最关键的部分是图像处理算法,它直接影响重建图像的质量和速度。系统中的各种噪声会降低重建图像的质量。因此,要提高 NCT 系统重建图像的质量,必须使用高效的图像处理算法。各向异性扩散滤波(ADF)算法不仅能有效抑制投影数据中的噪声,还能通过减少图像边缘的扩散来保留图像边缘结构信息。因此,我们提出将 ADF 算法应用于 NCT 图像重建。为了比较不同算法在 NCT 系统中的性能,我们采用了有序子集同步代数重建技术(OS-SART)算法,以不同的正则项作为图像处理算法重建图像。在迭代重建中,我们选择了两种图像处理算法,即总变异算法和分裂布雷格曼求解总变异算法,与 ADF 算法的性能进行比较。此外,我们还使用了滤波后投影算法与迭代算法进行比较。通过重建数值模型和时钟模型的投影数据,我们比较并分析了 NCT 系统中应用的每种算法的效果。根据重建结果,OS-SART-ADF 在去噪、保留边缘结构和抑制伪影方面优于其他算法。例如,在重建 25 个视角的三维 Shepp-Logan 时,OS-SART-ADF 的均方根误差是四种迭代算法中最小的,仅为 0.0292。重建图像的通用质量指数、平均结构相似度和相关系数在所有算法中最大,分别为 0.9877、0.9878 和 0.9887。
