Abstract
This study investigated the optimum composition of the MAGAT polymer gel which is to be used in the quality assurance measurement of the thermal neutron, fast neutron and gamma ray components in the irradiation field used for boron neutron capture therapy at the Kyoto University Reactor. Simulations using the PHITS code showed that when combined with the gel, 6Li concentrations of 0, 10 and 100Â ppm were found to be potentially usable.
