A new investigation into the estimation of transferred energy from a neutron source to a human’s body

Since neutrons especially fast neutron has a high weighting factor in radiation dosimetry, exposing the human’s body to a neutron source in a laboratory or clinic may put body tissues at risk and dangerous situations. In doing so, in this investigation, body tissue together with soft tissues (including adipose and skin) were decomposed into their fundamental elements, and then got emitted by neutrons. This research can be put into operation all tissues about cancer therapy. The amounts of neutron energy because of the collision between neutrons and nuclei of the basic elements got calculated in the tissue Next, some results got concluded. The results imply that the highest transferred energy happens within the energy range 3.5-10.5 MeV and also energy ranges 15-16.5 MeV. As well, the tendencies of the transferred-energy graphs were very in a similar way and are the same as other fundamental elements, and the maximum transferred energy happened for the elements that had a small atomic weight.
