A Monte Carlo model for the detection efficiency of cylindrical geometry used in fission isomer studies
Description
This paper describes a Monte Carlo calculation of the detection efficiency of cylindrical geometry, using solid state nuclear track detectors. A method is presented for determining the half-life of a fission isomer, which gives results in good agreement with direct electronic timing measurements. (orig.)
