Title: Utilization of Baeten's Dead-Time Correction Formalism for Multiplicity Counting

Conference ·
OSTI ID:769017

We evaluate a dead-time correction formalism for double and triple coincidences in multiplicity counting. We will describe the accuracy by which S (singles), D (doubles), and T (triples) (and consequently, the mass, multiplication, and alpha) of fissile material samples can be determined using this formalism.
