摘要: 针对裂变源中子反射实验中涉及到的中子源能谱问题,选取两套用公式拟合、被普遍认可的252Cf自发裂变能谱,分别将其应用于该类实验的数值模拟中。对实验测点的中子注量及裂变反应率进行了对比研究,结果表明,相对于Maxwell谱,Watt谱能更好地与实验结果符合。Abstract: Aimed at the problem of the energy spectrum of spontaneous fission source, which was used in neutron albedo experiments, we selected two sets of 252Cf fission spectra, which were fitted by formulae and were universally accepted. And they were applied in neutron albedo experiments independently. Neutron fluence and fission rate on each detecting point were compared and analyzed. The results show that Watt spectrum agrees the experiment data better than that of Maxwell spectrum.
