Description

Using BC-501A detector 252Cf spontaneous fission neutron source has been measured and neutron detection efficiencies with different neutron threshold energies has been obtained under 252Cf neutron distribution. The nuclear temperature of 252Cf neutron source has been obtained by T=1.42 ± 0.03 MeV. (authors)
