Montpellier, France Institut de radioprotection et de sûreté nucléaire Temps plein

IRSN, a public expert with industrial and commercial activities, was set up in 2001.The Institute is placed under the joint authority of the French Ministries of Defense, Environment, Industry, Research, and Health.

IRSN is the nation’s public service expert in nuclear and radiation risks, and its activities cover all the related scientific and technical issues. It interacts with all parties concerned by these risks (public authorities, local authorities, companies, research organizations, stakeholders’ associations, etc.) to contribute to public policy issues relating to nuclear safety, human and environmental protection against ionizing radiation, and the protection of nuclear materials, facilities, and transport against the risk of malicious acts.

**Poste et missions**:
IRSN is the public expert in the field of radiation protection and nuclear safety. In this context, the Laboratoire de micro-irradiation, Métrologie et Dosimétrie des Neutrons (LMDN) contributes to the establishment of reference neutron beams and participates in the development of new detectors for the characterization of various neutron fields produced in industry and the medical field. In this perspective, a collaboration between the Laboratoire pour l'Utilisation des Lasers Intenses (CNRS/LULI) and the LMDN aims to characterize the neutron emission produced by the laser of the CNRS APOLLON facility and to design an activation neutron spectrometer consisting of several targets arranged in series.

**Supervision and Collaboration**

The day-to-day supervision of the post-doc will be carried out by the Laboratoire de micro-irradiation, de Métrologie et de Dosimétrie des Neutrons (IRSN/SDOS/LMDN) at Cadarache.

This work will be carried out in strong synergy with:

- The Ionizing Radiation Dosimetry Laboratory (IRSN/SDOS/LDRI, Fontenay-aux-Roses)
- The Neutronics Laboratory (IRSN/SNC/LN, Fontenay-aux-Roses)
- The Laboratory for the Use of Intense Lasers (CNRS/Polytechnique/LULI)

The regular interactions between laboratories will be done remotely and face-to-face according to the needs (participation in measurement campaigns, training,...).

**Objectifs**:
Gamma-ray spectrometry measurements of the activation of the metal foils constituting the neutron spectrometer provide only integral and not spectral data of the activity. Thus, the determination of the neutron spectrum is indirect and is usually carried out using so-called "deconvolution" software, which makes it possible to obtain knowledge of the neutron spectrum from the activation measurements, knowing the response functions of the targets as a function of the incident neutron energy. The determination of these response functions is one of the tasks of a thesis currently being carried out at LULI in close collaboration with the LMDN. To date, the codes used by the LMDN for the determination of neutron spectra require prior knowledge of the type of neutron spectrum. These deconvolution codes are based on either Bayesian approaches or iterative algorithms.

The aim of this post-doctoral contract is therefore to:

- to participate in the design of the neutron spectrometer (choice of target materials, thicknesses and their order relative to the incident beam) with AI methods to be defined,
- to use the AI approach already studied to reconstruct the neutron spectra emitted in the Apollon installation by transposing these complementary and innovative methodologies (thanks to the establishment of detector response functions)
- to combine and compare Bayesian approaches and AI-based methods for spectrometer optimization.

The different steps of this post-doctoral position will therefore be:
A) to appropriate the different algorithms and neural network architectures already validated,

B) to adapt the codes based on the Bayesian models by using the expertise of LULI (simulations, other measurements)

C) to build and enrich a learning base for neural networks derived from simulations,

D) to optimize the neural network architecture,

E) to consider the use of AI or optimization tools useful in the design of the detector.

F) To potentially adapt the developed tools for other types of reference detectors owned by the laboratory (scintillators, Bonner spheres, etc..)
