NIF ETA Experiment
Description
The NIF energy tuning assembly (ETA) experiment was designed to spectrally shape the NIF deuterium-tritium fusion neutron source into a thermonuclear and prompt fission neutron spectrum. The environment was modeled in MCNP5 with a full-scale NIF model and neutron flux covariance with SCALE Sampler with MAVRIC. The neutron flux was unfolded using measured activation products and the initial guess spectrum with covariance information. A highly enriched uranium sample was fielded in the experimental cavity of the ETA and fission products have been measured in the unique environment.
