Calculations of the number of participating nucleons and the number of collisions were made, using experimental parameters from existing literature. Three symmetric systems were investigated: copper (Cu-63), gold (Au-197) and lead (Pb-208), which are some of the main elements studied in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerators. The calculations showed that as the energy of collision increased from RHIC to LHC energies, the number of collisions approximately doubled, largely due to the increased inelastic cross section. |

We evaluated the practicality of a transportable neutron radiography system. Calculations of neutron fluxes and energy distributions due to an americium-beryllium neutron source were performed using MCNP (Monte Carlo N-Particle) software package. The result shows that the safe source activity level is in the order of micro-Ci. This demonstrates the challenges in constructing a practical, efficient, and safe radiography system. |
