DETERMINATION OF ABSOLUTE NEUTRON FLUX BY GOLD ACTIVATION

Journal Article · · Reactor Sci.
A technique is described for determining the neutron flux in a beam to better than 1% from an absolute measurement of the activity induced in gold foils by neutron capture. The construction of special gridded ionization chambers with B/sup 10/s layers and their calibration in terms of the gold cross section to form secondary standards is described. (auth)
