3He detector design for low-level transuranic waste assay
Description
From this study it appears that a logical configuration of 3He detectors imbedded in CH2 for nondestructive assay of low-level transuranic waste is: rho = 1 atmosphere, d = 2.54 cm, x = 5.08 cm, t = 15.24 cm, h = 61 cm, and N = 5. If a greater detector response is desired, the best way to achieve it is to first double the detector height, h, and then to increase the number of tubes, N, and/or increase the 3He density, rho
