PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a neutron capture therapy system that reduces the potential safety hazards caused by radiation for workers.SOLUTION: A neutron capture therapy system pertaining to the present application includes a vacuum tube transporting the charged particle beam, a neutron generating part to generate the neutron beam and a beam shaping part to shape the neutron beam. The beam shaping part is provided with an accommodating part. The neutron generating part is disposed at an end of the vacuum tube. The vacuum tube has a first position and a second position. The neutron capture therapy system further includes a removal device, which includes a moving part that drives the vacuum tube to move. The moving part has a third position and a fourth position. When the moving part is in the third position, the vacuum tube is in the first position. When the moving part is in the fourth position, the vacuum tube is in the second position, and the neutron generating part is located at the outer side of the beam shaping assembly, thereby reducing the direct contact between a worker and the neutron generating part after the nuclear reaction has occurred.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4

Described herein is a compact combined active and passive cooling system to cool electronic audio-video circuitry, wherein all of the AV circuitry and cooling system fits within an enclosure that can be installed in a standard wall gang-box located in interior walls of structures. The combined active and passive cooling system uses convection, conduction, and radiation in active and passive cooling modes to dissipate heat generated by the AV circuitry into the room in which the gang box is located, and further uses the wall plate surface to dissipate heat into the room.

A method and system for checking a gauge response is described. The method includes positioning samples with known profiles and uniform compositions between a radiation source and a subset of detectors in a detector array linearly arranged in a first direction. Sample signals are generated by irradiating the samples with radiation from the radiation source and detecting radiation transmitted through the samples and to the subset of detectors. The method includes inputting the sample signals into calibrations for each of the subset of detectors and each of the one or more samples, thereby determining values corresponding to each of the one or more samples and each of the subset of detectors. The method determines if the values corresponding to the one or more samples are consistent with the know values of the samples, and thereby provides an indication as to the state of calibration of the gauge.
