After introductory remarks on the origin and detection of thermal neutrons, a description is given of the factors which must be considered in building BF/sub 3/ counters. The cathode material must bs resistant to the corrosive effect of BF/sub 3/ and must not become too activated. The purity of the filling gas influences the counting properties of the tube. The dimensions of the tube and the filling pressure determine the form of the pulse-height distribution which is to be measured by the counter. Possible uses of the BF/sub 3/ counter are indicated, especially the dosimetry of thermal and fast neutrons. (auth)
