Further development of the LNMRI/IRD's TNF2 thermal system for flexible dose rate irradiation

The 'Inverse Square Law' (ISL)(  1) requires the existence of a point radiation source to be validated, but in some cases where there is more than one source, its use is possible as long as a point is determined where a virtual source can be positioned and from this point the points correspond to the ISL. Ambient dose equivalent rate values were obtained by simulation and measurements at various points along the LNMRI Thermal Neutron Flux 2 (TNF2) central axis front face, determining a function corresponding to the inverse square of the distance and the font position at the virtual point 'y0', so that the ISL is respected. This function will help in the neutron monitors calibration, previously estimating the ambient dose equivalent at a certain distance from the face.
