X-band electron linac coupled with Tungsten and Beryllium as photon and neutron converter makes a compact neutron source system with short pulse, which is advantageous for Time of Flight (ToF) measurement. With its relatively small size and short ToF path, this compact neutron source along with G-GEM detector can be implemented in on-site nuclear debris measurement system, especially for Fukushima Daiichi area.
