Description

The paper devoted to simulation of neutron source based on gas-dynamic trap concept. DOL code was used as a main tool for numerical calculations. Stability against Drift-Cyclotron Loss-Cone (DCLC) and Double Hump (DH) modes is estimated according to [I.A.Kotelnikov, I.S.Chernoshtanov, V.V.Prikhodko.
