ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENT OF THE FAST NEUTRON FLUX IN THE REACTOR RA

Journal Article · · Bull. Inst. Nuclear Sci. "Boris Kidrich" (Belgrade)
OSTI ID:4792533
S>The absolute neutron flux in a hole of the reactor RA was determined by using the Ai (n, alpha )Na reaction, andby counting the Na/4 2.5-Mev photopeak activity. A method for the determination of sigma /sub eff/ for the Ai reaction as a mean value between the two limiting cases of neutron spectra was used. The flux at the power level of 5 Mw was found to be (2.5 plus or minus 0.9) x 10/ sup 12/ n/cm/sup 2/ sec. (auth)
