Description

The nonideality of the epithermal neutron flux distribution at a reactor site parameter (α) and the thermal-to-epithermal neutron ratio (f) were determined in three typical irradiation positions of the IEA-R1 reactor of IPEN-CNEN/SP, Sao Paulo, Brazil, using the 'Cd-ratio for multimonitor' and 'bare bi-isotopic monitor' methods, respectively. This characterization is to be used in the k0-method of NAA, recently introduced at the IPEN. (author)
