Abstract :
The Munich Accelerator for Fission Fragments (MAFF) facility planned at the research reactor FRM-II in Munich is dedicated to produce, cool and accelerate high-intensity neutron-rich radioactive beams. The radioactive beam of fission fragments results from bombarding a uranium target by the thermal neutrons emerging from the reactor. Part of the nuclides is released from the target/ion source unit in a non-ionized state. This contribution is concerned with simulating the distribution of the non-ionized radioactivity along the MAFF beamline. The calculations are performed with the help of the computer program MOVAK3D. The calculated fraction of non-ionized radioactivity at the border of the experimental area is at the level of about 10−7, relative to the activity produced in the target.
