Synthesis of neutron-rich transuranic nuclei in fissile spallation targets

Igor Mishustin, Yury Malyshkin, Igor Pshenichnov +1

A possibility of synthesizing neutron-reach super-heavy elements in spallation targets of Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS) is considered. A dedicated software called Nuclide Compos…

Comparative study of RBE and cell survival fractions for H, He, C and O beams using Geant4 and Microdosimetric Kinetic model

Lucas Burigo, Igor Pshenichnov, Igor Mishustin +1

Beams of He and O nuclei are considered for ion-beam cancer therapy as alternative options to protons and C nuclei. Spread-out Bragg peak (SOBP) distributions o…

Measurement of the total cross section of uranium-uranium collisions at GeV

W. Fischer, A. J. Baltz, M. Blaskiewicz +7

Heavy ion cross sections totaling several hundred barns have been calculated previously for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). These to…

Monte Carlo modeling of spallation targets containing uranium and americium

Yury Malyshkin, Igor Pshenichnov, Igor Mishustin +1

Neutron production and transport in spallation targets made of uranium and americium are studied with a Geant4-based code MCADS (Monte Carlo model for Accelerator Driven Systems).…

Microdosimetry spectra and RBE of H-1, He-4, Li-7 and C-12 nuclei in water studied with Geant4

Lucas Burigo, Igor Pshenichnov, Igor Mishustin +1

A Geant4-based Monte Carlo model for Heavy-Ion Therapy (MCHIT) is used to study radiation fields of H-1, He-4, Li-7 and C-12 beams with similar ranges (~160-180 mm) in water. Micro…

Microdosimetry of radiation field from therapeutic C-12 beam in water: a study with Geant4 toolkit

Lucas Burigo, Igor Pshenichnov, Igor Mishustin +1

We model the responses of Tissue-Equivalent Proportional Counters (TEPC) to radiation fields of therapeutic C-12 beams in a water phantom and to quasi-monoenergetic neutrons in a P…
