Abstract
Technique and instrumentation to detect, reliably, small number of neu trons emitted in sharp burst (duration less-than-or-equal-to 10(-6) s) has been developed. Using this method typically a congruent-to 10(1) neutron/burst could be detected in the presence of other interfering r adiations such as X/gamma-rays and electromagnetic interference. The d evice could be triggered to detect single bursts. Or it could be opera ted in free-running mode, to record continuously, randomly occurring b urst and store them in a personal computer.
