DECAY OF POLONIUM-BERYLLIUM FAST NEUTRON SOURCES

Journal Article · · Health Physics (England)
The half life for fast neutron emission of three Po-Be fast neutron sources was measured by long counter detection methods and found to agree to within less than 2% of the half life of the alpha -emitter even, in one case, over a period of ten half lives. (auth)
