Abstract :
With a cylindrical discharge type fusion device that generates fast neutron design of various combinations of reflectors, moderators and shield materials were studied for, the neutron beam with desired energy spectrum. Optimized reflector design and comparison of their materials are discussed by both experimental and numerical studies.
