Abstract
Neutron response functions for superheated droplet detectors have been anal yzed from threshold up to 2 MeV incident energy, taking into account a grad ual threshold function, in terms of temperature and incident energy. A meth od for obtaining fitted parameters is described. Detection mechanisms up to 14 MeV are discussed.
