Recommended application field: These tubes are intended to generate neutrons at energies of 14 MeV. Such neutron generators are used for monitoring oil wells and ore holes, as well as in mobile or stationary neutron generators. Stage of Development: The neutron tubes NTG - 2 and NTG - 3 are at the stage of serial production. Note other types of neutron tubes are available as well.

Advantages over analogues: Main Characteristics NTG - 2 NTG - 3 Max neutron yield, (n/s) 3x108 2x108 Max avg target current (mA) 0,4 0,5 Radiation pulse repetition frequency (kHz) 0.05-20 0.02-30 Min radiation pulse duration (ms) 5 3 Operating life (hr) 200 200 Overall dimensions (mm) Diameter (without magnet) 35 60 Length 250 300 The above neutron yield values were obratined at an accelerating voltage of 110 kV. The recommended value of the magnetic field induction for the neutron tube NTG - 2 is not less than 20 mT.

The development stage readiness: tested in laboratory condition

Description of the development:
()
The neutron tube NTG - 2 is comprised of a cermet (gless-metal) body housing a Penning-type ion source with incandescent or cold cathode, a system of forming and accelerting electrodes, and a neutron-generating target. The distance between the active target surface and the tube face is 25 mm. In the glass-metal version this distance is 1 mm. The neutron tube NTG - 3 is made of cermet (glass-metal) body housing an orbitron ion source. A cylindrical neutron-generating target is arranged on the inner lateral surface of the tube body. These tudes generate neutrons with an acceleration of mixed deuterium-tritium beams of energies up to 100-120 KeV, which bombard the neutron-generating target saturated with a deuterium-tritium mixture.
