1. Reações nucleares de alta energia (" Spallation") e sua aplicação em cálculo de sistemas nucleares acionados por Fonte / High energy nuclear reactions ("Spallation") and their application in calculation of the acceleration driven systems (ADS)
Neste trabalho apresentamos um estudo das reações nucleares de alta energia que são fundamentais na definição do termo fonte dos reatores nucleares subcríticos acionados por fonte externa. Estas reações nucleares, também conhecidas como "spallation", consistem na interação de hádrons de alta energia com os núcleons do núcleo atômico. A fenomen

2. Spallation physics and the ADS target design
This paper reviews the physics of the spallation which is a nuclear reaction in which a particle (e.g. proton) interacts with a nucleus. Given to the high energy of the incident proton, in a first stage it interacts with the individual nucleons in an intranuclear cascade which leads to the emission of secondary particles (neutrons, protons, mesons, etc.). In

3. The utilization of crisp code in hybrid reactor studies
One of the main applications of the Hybrid Reactors (ADS - Accelerator Driven System) is the incineration of transuranics (TRU) by fast neutrons that emerge from a spallation source in a sub critical reactor waste burner [1, 2]. For this application, an accurate description and prediction of spallation reaction is necessary, including all the characteristics

4. Developement of crisp package for spallation reaction studies and its utilization in ADS (Accelerator Driven System)
The progress of nuclear physics had allowed a better understanding of nuclear structure and reaction mechanisms, but also enables important applications of nuclear energy in our modern way of life. We can point out those ones related to power generation from nuclear reactors, providing an almost inexhaustive power source due to the huge quantities of nuclear

5. On positron radiation belt in the Earth's magnetosphere
The ratio of positron/electron fluxes originated in nuclear spallation reactions in the Earth's magnetosphere is considered. It is supposed that positrons as well as electrons are produced in the decay of charged pions (pi±® m± ->e±) born in nuclear collisions of trapped relativistic inner zone protons with the residual atmospher
