Abstract
A device for studies of neutron-physical characteristics of thorium fuel is described in this paper. The device consists of a thorium subcritical assembly combined with a source of fast neutrons. A long magnetic trap with injection of high energy neutral atoms into a plasma column serves as a source of thermonuclear neutrons. The subcritical assembly design consists of Fuel Block of the Unified Design. The analysis of the requirements for the plasma as the neutron source is presented in the paper.
