Abstract

The 14 MeV neutron generator (FNG), in operation at the ENEA Energy Center of Frascati, Italy, is described. It produces up to 1 X 10¹¹ neutrons per second and consists essentially of a deuterium-ion accelerator, a beam transport system, and a target of titanium tritide, where neutrons are produced by the T(d,n)⁴He fusion reactions. An application of FNG in the context of research activity on controlled thermonuclear fusion research is also briefly described.
