Abstract
Abstract
We describe the design of a neutron activator that contains a beryllium target, a lead/bismuth moderator, graphite/PbF2 reflectors, and a boron absorber. Production of the 99Mo isotope using millimeter-sized 98Mo samples located in various regions of the activator was simulated using the MCNPX code. If the 98Mo samples are placed in the reflector region, the yield increases due to a larger flux of epithermal neutrons.
