Activation of samples in the secondary neutron flux generated with a 66 MeV proton beam on a radionuclide production target

Motetshwane, Mogakolodi Adolf (Botswana International University of Science and Technology, 2019-02)

In this work, a small activation chamber was specially designed to facilitate the irradiation of selected samples with secondary neutrons behind a radionuclide production target in the vertical-beam target station (VBTS) ...
Biological shielding calculations for a 10 MeV Rhodotron electron accelerator facility

Tikologo, Otsile (Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2019-06-01)

This thesis focuses on biological shielding calculations for a 10 MeV Rhodotron electron beam accelerator operating in dual mode to produce a 10 MeV primary electron beam and 7.5 MeV secondary X-rays, generated by hitting ...
Detection of diamonds using the tagged neutron method

Sebele, Motswakae (Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2022-01)

Current technologies for the detection and extraction of diamonds involve the repeti tive mechanical crushing of kimberlite ore, resulting in the damage of real diamonds. In particular, the breakage of large diamonds into ...
