THE USE OF SCINTILLATION DETECTORS IN FAST NEUTRON DOSIMETRY

OSTI ID:4719730
Two fast neutron scintillation counters are described. 0ne is a multilayer type, permitting neutron doses between 0.2 and 5 Mev to be measured within an error of plus or minus 10%, beginning with a dose power of 0.1 mu rad/sec and over; the device ensures a good discrimination of gamma -radiation; the second is a spherical type, permitting the fast neutron flux to be measured at a density of 10 neutron/cm sec and over within an error of plus or minus (10 to 15)%. The drawbacks of the devices are; the indications are dependent upon the directlon of neutron motion, and are independent of the neutron energy only within a rather narrow range, An advantage of the devices is their high sensitivity.
