Improved methods for measurements of thermal neutron dose by the fission-track technique

Creators

Description

We describe scanning electron microscope and reflected light observations of fission tracks that lead to highly reproducible track density measurements for different observers. These new observational techniques are used to calibrate two uranium-doped glasses for neutron dose measurements. The glasses are available to other investigators.
