A Compact Accelerator Driven Neutron Source for Industry and Medicine — •Holger Höltermann — Bevatech GmbH, Mörfelden-Walldorf

The use of neutrons is established since decades and essential for industry, medicine, life sciences, and research. Classical neutron sources are mainly neutron generators, with low neutron flux, or research reactors and spallation sources, which are large and cost intensive installations. A cost efficient, effective, and compact neutron source with neutron yields up to 1e13 neutrons per second could bridge the gap existing. It will offer potential users either a dedicated standalone version for high demands of a single application such as BNCT or a full variable user facility.
