Title: Measurement of high energy neutrons via Lu(n,xn) reactions

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/562330· OSTI ID:562330

High energy neutrons can be assayed by the use of the nuclear diagnostic material lutetium. We are measuring the (n,xn) cross sections for natural lutetium in order to develop it as a detector material. We are applying lutetium to diagnose the high energy neutrons produced in test target/blanket systems appropriate for the Accelerator Production of Tritium Project. 3 refs., 5 figs., 1 tab.
