Explore: Neutron Generators

Neutron generators are neutron source devices which contain compact linear particle accelerators and that produce neutrons by fusing isotopes of hydrogen

Dedicated neutron sources like neutron generators, research reactors and spallation sources produce free neutrons for use in irradiation and in neutron scattering

A neutron source is any device that emits neutrons, irrespective of the mechanism used to produce the neutrons. Neutron sources are used in physics, engineering

accelerator-based neutron generators. Normal neutron generators use a three-inch (7.5 cm) cylinder, too large for implanted neutron capture therapy and for neutron inspection

these can be suitable sources for neutron imaging. Portable accelerator based neutron generators utilizing the neutron yielding fusion reactions of deuterium-deuterium

market in 2000, as neutron generators. A company called NSD-Gradel developed a compact IEC device that fused ions and created neutrons and sold the product

A modulated neutron initiator is a neutron source capable of producing a burst of neutrons on activation. It is a crucial part of some nuclear weapons

Cockcroft–Walton generator). That process is used in miniaturized versions of their original accelerator, in the form of small sealed tube neutron generators, for

Neutron is a partially reusable medium-lift two-stage launch vehicle under development by Rocket Lab. Announced on March 1, 2021, the vehicle is designed

tritium, where fusion takes place, releasing a flux of neutrons. Hundreds of neutron generators are produced annually for use in the petroleum industry
