Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for generating neutrons may include: a hollow casing configured to rotate about a central axis, the casing including a wall having a central region substantially at the central axis and a peripheral region, wherein the wall defines a cavity, and wherein the cavity is configured to contain a first coolant fluid; an active layer at least partially on the peripheral region external to the cavity, wherein the active layer is configured to realize a neutron-generating reaction; at least one particle accelerator configured to direct an ion beam on the active layer to activate the neutron-generating reaction; movement means configured to rotate the casing about the central axis and to force the first coolant fluid to contact the wall at the active layer for cooling the casing; and external cooling including a second coolant fluid contacting at least an external portion of the wall.
