A PRELIMINARY REPORT ON MEASUREMENTS OF DIFFUSION PARAMETERS IN WATER BY THE PULSED-NEUTRON METHOD

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4122795
The substance of this paper was given in a talk at the American Nuclear Society Meeting in Chicago, June 15, A 25-Mev electron linac, capable of producing 2 x 10/sup 10/ n/pulse by the ( gamma ,n) process in water-cooled lead or tungsten-alloy targets, was used to study neutron diffusion parameters in water. The detector used in the measurements was a small fission counter 0.25 in. in diameter and 0.5 in. long with a 1 mg/cm/sup 2/ coating of U/sup 235/ on the outer electrode. Perturbation effect was determined by comparing the measured decay with the detector in the center to that measured with the detector on the surface. (W.D.M.)
