1. Name of Experiment:
 ------------------
 TUD Measurement of Neutron and Photon Spectra in an ITER Bulk Shield Mock-up
 (1996)

2. Purpose and Phenomena Tested:
 ----------------------------
 Determination of neutron and photon spectra in a neutronic mock-up of the
 International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) shielding system
 irradiated with 14-MeV neutrons.

3. Description of Source and Experimental Configuration:
 ----------------------------------------------------
 The 14-MeV d-T Frascati Neutron Generator (FNG, [1]) was the neutron
 source. The angular dependence of the source intensity is presented in
 Figure 1. The angular dependence of the source energy distribution is
 shown in Figure 2.
 The geometry of the mock-up is outlined in Figure 3. It consists of a
 combination of slabs made from the water equivalent material Perspex
 and the stainless steel SS316 (simulating shield-blanket and vacuum
 vessel) and has a front cross-section area of 100 cm x 100 cm. The total
 thickness of the assembly is 94.26 cm including a 1 cm thick Cu layer
 in front (simulating first wall). Behind this assembly a block of Cu and
 SS316 plates was arranged (simulating the coils for the toroidal magnetic
 field of the TOKAMAK; dimensions: depth 30 cm, area 47 cm x 47 cm).
 The rear part of the assembly was surrounded with a polythene shield
 covering also the last 30 cm of the Perspex/SS316 block in order to
 reduce room-return background.
 Neutron and photon spectra were determined in the mock-up on the central
 axis of the assembly at two positions:

 Position A: Measurement behind the 6 cm thick Perspex layer inside a SS316
 slab, at a total penetration depth 41.5 cm from the front of
 the assembly (Cu 1 cm, SS316 26.08 cm, and Perspex 14.42 cm).

 Position B: Measurement in a SS316 layer at the total penetration depth
 87.6 cm from the front of the assembly (Cu 1 cm, SS316 59.82 cm,
 and Perspex 26.78 cm).

 The detectors were placed on the axis of the d-beam of the neutron generator.

4. Measurement System:
 ------------------
 A NE213 scintillator was employed for simultaneously measuring the neutron
 spectra for energies E>1 MeV and the photon spectra for energies E>0.2 MeV.
 For each registered event both the pulse-height and a pulse-shape parameter
 were recorded to distinguish between neutrons and photons.
 Pulse-height distributions from three different hydrogen-filled
 proportional detectors, one methane-filled proportional detector and a
 stilbene scintillator were used for determining the neutron flux spectra
 for energies ranging from 20 keV up to about 3.6 MeV, overlapping
 with the NE213 spectra [2-6].
 Measurement uncertainties are provided with the tabulated spectra and are
 between 2 and 10 %.

5. Description of Results and Analysis:
 -----------------------------------
 Neutron energy spectrum:
 The NE213 pulse-height spectra were unfolded by the DIFBAS code [7]
 with a response matrix developed at Physikalisch-Technische
 Bundesanstalt Braunschweig [8], to obtain spectral fluxes.
 The evaluation procedure of the proton recoil spectra from the
 proportional detectors and from the stilbene scintillator consisted in
 an iterative differentiation with inclusion of the following
 corrections: wall effect, non-linear light output function, anisotropy
 effect of stilbene, energy dependent sensitivity of the stilbene
 crystal and correction of neutron reactions on carbon resulting in
 alpha-particles. The results are shown in Figure 4. The neutron energy
 spectra represent a combination of the partial spectra obtained with
 the different detectors which were in each case corrected for material
 and size of the detector to a spherical detection volume of 2.0 cm
 radius filled with SS316.

 Photon energy spectrum:
 The pulse-height distribution from the NE213 detector for photons was
 unfolded with the DIFBAS code [7] with a response matrix calculated
 with the MCNP code. The results are shown in Figure 5. Also the photon
 energy spectra represent the spectral fluences in a SS316 sphere with
 radius of 2 cm and were normalized to one source neutron.

 Calculations:
 Examples of calculations carried out with the 3-D Monte Carlo code
 MCNP-4A [9] and the data libraries FENDL-1 [10] and FENDL-2 [11] are
 presented (Figure 6, Figure 7) [12].
 The geometry model for MCNP-4A including neutron source backing and the
 experimental environment (walls, floor, racks, ...) is given by the
 input file as well as a FORTRAN subroutine for MCNP source description.

 The input data for the 2D discrete ordinates transport calculation [13]
 are provided, including inputs for the codes TRANSX, GIP, GRTUNCL and DORT.
