Abstract: Abstract In this study, a novel (20 wt% B4C+6061Al)/Cf/6061Al neutron-shielding layer composite was successfully designed and fabricated by the Monte Carlo particle transport programme (MCNP) and spark plasma sintering, respectively. The MCNP simulation and thermal-neutron-shielding test… read more here.
