Plane rectangular tritium target response to excitation by uniform distributed normal accelerated deuteron beam

This work is a contribution to analytical study of the spatial dependency of the d-T mean neutron energy in the vicinity of a homogeneous tritium-occluded rectangular plane target. An accelerated deuteron beam excites the tritium target with normal incidence to the target plane. The transverse density of accelerated deuteron beam is assumed to be constant close to the target. Due consideration being paid to d-T collision kinetics, depending upon mass and kinetic energy of particles involved in the nuclear collision, nuclear reaction energy, etc, in particular circumstances, the elementary neutron energy emission in non-dispersive media can be considered to be omni-directional or very low anisotropical. Consequently, analytical expressions can be considerably simplified, taking into account the exothermic character of d-T fusion reaction. A number of expressions for energetic prediction of the fast neutron generated, in this case, by d-T reaction are proposed. Animated three-dimensional-graphics is suggested. Computationally tractable tools are of importance in the study of some situations such as induced reactions and activation analysis using 14 MeV neutrons, investigations in health-physics, radiation dose characterization, nuclear medicine, damage effects, and simulation studies.
