Description

Numerical calculations of the energy dependent efficiency of two types of detectors for thermal neutrons are reported. It is found that a relative nomalization error of up to 5% might be present in 'corrected' spectra if only one vanadium measurement is made and the 'wall effect' is ignored. (Auth.)
