OSTI ID:4161193
A method for mixed gamma -neutron dosimetry was tested on a model using a proportional counter filled with BF/sub 3/. An ordinary counter surrounded by a layer of paraffin for retarding n from a Po--Be source was used. Pulses caused by capture of thermal n were considerably greater than pulses caused by gamma rays. Results of investigations made with a Po--Be n source and with Ra as the gamma source showed that the proposed method is applicable for dosimetry. (Ref. Zh., Fiz. 1963)
