Description
Full text: A large variety of neutron detectors both BF3 and 3He gas-filled, with excellent characteristics and long shelf life are being routinely fabricated at Neutron Detection Systems Section, Solid State Physics Division, BARC. They range from small beam monitors (0.2c/nv) to large size signal detectors (100c/nv). Typical energy resolution of these detectors is 8% - 25% (FWHM) for BF3 and 5% - 15% for 3He-filled detectors. Some of the typical applications of these detectors are towards neutron scattering, area monitoring, nuclear waste monitoring and in applied physics experiments
