Accelerator LUE-200.
Status, Capabilities and Development Problems
The article reports on the status of the accelerator facility of the Laboratory of Neutron Physics (LNP) of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR, Dubna) — the
driver of an intense pulsed source of resonant neutrons. The general scheme of the linear electron accelerator and the features of its basic systems are presented.
LUE-200 consists of two accelerating sections on a traveling wave with an operating frequency of 2856 MHz with SLEDtype microwave power compression systems.
The pulsed beam current at the accelerator output reaches 2 A with a pulse duration of 80–120 ns. With an average beam particle energy of 90–110 MeV
and an acceleration cycle frequency of 50 Hz, the average beam power reaches 0.95–1.0 kW. The integral neutron flux (in the thermal and resonance energy range)
from a non-multiplying W-target reaches values of ∼ 1.06 · 1012 s-1. The possibilities of further development of the accelerator are discussed.

Harris Model and IBM for Pu, Cm, Fm, No
For heavy even nuclei Pu, Cm, Fm and No, the description of the energies
of yrast bands in the Harris phenomenological model of the variable moment of inertia and in the interacting boson model (IBM), including IBM phenomenology, is considered. For two nuclei,
244Pu and 248Cm, the results of calculations in the extended IBM version are also presented. Comparison of these results made it possible to identify different characteristics
of the behavior of the moment of inertia as a function of the square of the rotational frequency and obtain corresponding interpretations of their features. In particular, a version
is proposed that explains the weakening of the growth of the moment of inertia for spins of states greater than 24+ in a number of nuclei.

Achieving the Desired Field Gradient in PM-Based Quads through Computerized Sort-Out of PM Units with Measured Parameters
The study is focused on the optimized design and fabrication of a PM-based quadrupole for beam transportation and focusing in the DC140 cyclotron. The quad has
a modular configuration with a set of geometrically similar PM bricks in every module. Prior to assembly, geometrical and magnetic parameters were measured over the whole set of PMs.
The measured data were used to adjust positions and orientations of PM bricks. A generalized procedure is proposed in a form of a program module to retrieve, sort out,
and group specifications of individual PMs from the measurement database. This procedure can be applied to compare and select parameters for various magnets based on PM assemblies
without limitation on the PM nomenclature.

Inspection of Geometric and Magnetic Parameters of PM-Based Quads in Precision Transport System for Accelerator Application
The study is focused on performance of permanent magnet–based quadrupoles (PMQ) used for beam transportation and focusing in the DC140 cyclotron.
An inspection procedure is examined, which combines 3D field simulation and measurement for geometric and magnetic parameters of PM units. The results are used to
guide practical measurement technique and instrumentation decisions. A set of supplied PM units has been measured and an optimum intramagnet PMQ
configuration has been determined. As a result, the prototype, reference, and test magnets have been assembled.

Calculation of the Reactivity of a Pulsating Reactor Taking into Account the Thermoelastic Deformation of the Fuel
The paper studies the change of the reactivity of the pulsed reactor IBR-2 due to the thermal expansion of the fuel caused by a single power pulse.
In the accepted model, the temperature is found by solving a system of two-dimensional nonstationary heat equations.
The deformation of fuel pellets is calculated in 3D geometry using the finite element method. Critical calculations were performed using the Monte Carlo method
in the full geometry of the reactor. It is shown that the reactivity of the reactor has a complex dependence on time. The obtained results will be used for accurate calculations
of the dynamics of a pulsed reactor.

Beam Profile Measurement at the Entrance of the Gas-Filled Solenoid GASSOL
A beam profilometer has been developed and tested for use at the entrance
of the gas-filled solenoid GASSOL during its commissioning and adjustment.
The profilometer is constructed as a mosaic of cathodes, each measuring current
generated by secondary emission during bombardment by accelerated ions being
measured from each cathode. A corresponding number of current amplifier
channels is used to measure the currents from the cathodes. A software program
has been developed for visualizing the beam profile. During an experiment with
a 40Ar+4 ion beam at an energy of 4 MeV per nucleon, the lower sensitivity limit
of the profilometer was found to be less than 0.001 pnA. The upper sensitivity
limit, determined through thermal calculations, is 100 pnA. A critical factor is
the risk of signal cable contact failures due to heating. The accuracy of beam
centre determination, ∓1 mm, falls within the specified tolerance for radial
displacement of the beam axis relative to the magnetic axis of the solenoid.
