Design of a cryogenic deuterium gas target for neutron therapy
Conference

OSTI ID:7230523
A cryogenic deuterium gas target operating at 80/sup 0/K and 10 atm pressure has been designed for use with a small cyclotron; the D(d,n) reaction is used to produce a neutron beam suitable for radiation therapy. The target is cooled by circulation of the gas in a closed loop between the target and an external heat exchanger immersed in liquid nitrogen.
