摘要
Abstract In order to enhance the performance and lifetime of the lithium target used in accelerator-based neutron sources for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) treatment, an exploration of target design was conducted based on the 2.8 MeV, 20 mA proton beam. A comparison between scanning magnets and octupole magnets was performed for beam uniform, with octupole magnets selected to effectively avoid localized high thermal densities over short durations. Exploration was conducted on the performance of tantalum and vanadium as interlayers within the lithium target, considering aspects such as cooling, hydrogen diffusion, and neutron performances. This study revealed that, as the majority of energy deposition occurs within the interlayer, the presence of an appropriately thick tantalum or vanadium interlayer has minimal impact on cooling effectiveness, ensuring temperatures remain below 144 ° C. The addition of an interlayer effectively reduces the maximum hydrogen concentration in copper, thus preventing copper blistering. Within the investigated thickness range, the interlayer does not affect neutron spectrum in the forward direction of the target, mitigating concerns regarding its impact on beam shaping.
