Abstract
The Geant4 code is used for Monte Carlo modeling of the angular distribution of the neutron yield from an 3H(d, n)4He reaction in a tritium target, and the effect the collimator unit has on the neutron flux. The number of all nuclear reaction channels in a 232Th + natU (50/50%) target per 14.1-MeV neutron is also found, along with the optimum size of the target for the maximum yield of secondary neutrons.
