| Research Abstract |
An Idea of new techniques of ion beam therapy con bine with Boron neutron capture therapy is investigated. As the first step, Monte Carlo phits code is tested with neutron production cross section of ^H(^C,n) reaction. It was found that the two body scattering cross section, such as ^H(^C,n)^Nis not include in the QMD cross section of phits. Then, cross section of the ^H(^C,n)^N reaction measurement was carried out. The ration ofthe cross section of the ^H(^C,n)^N reaction and the ^H(^C,n) reactionwas estimated. Including this ratio, the bron neutron dose in body is estimated. The bron neutron dose in this method could not be yielded in the body. It shows that further idea is needed for this technique.
