A SLOW NEUTRON DETECTOR (in German)

Journal Article · · Czechoslov. J. Phys.
OSTI ID:4241291
A scintillation detector for thermai and resonance neutrons prepared from a molten mixture of ZnS(Ag) and B/sub 2/O/sub 3/ is described. With optimum behavior of both components and optimum detector thickness, a relatively great efficiency (up to 25%) was obtained. The detector can also be used in high gamma background, since the efficiency of the gamma detection could be reduced below 10/ sup -7%/ by appropriate calibration of the discriminator with an efficiency for thermal neutrons of approximately 6%.
