Novel concept for neutron detection: proportional counter filled with 10B nanoparticle aerosol

The high neutron detection efficiency, good gamma-ray discrimination and non-toxicity of 3He made of proportional counters filled with this gas the obvious choice for neutron detection, particularly in radiation portal monitors (RPM), used to control the illicit transport of nuclear material, of which neutron detectors are key components. 3He is very rare and during the last decade this gas has...

Modelling moderated proportional neutron counters using the Geant4 toolkit and the application to detection of fast neutron burst

The modelling with the Geant4 toolkit of moderated 3He-filled proportional neutron counters is studied. The energy deposition spectra by the neutron capture products in the gas counter is compared with experimental results. On the other hand, efficiency calculation for polyethylene moderated proportional counters are compared with experimental and MCNPX results.Finally, the application of the G...

Passive neutron area monitor with CR39

Background: In high-intensity, mixed and pulsed neutron fields the use of spectrometers or area monitors with active detectors is useless in these conditions neutron measuring devices must have a passive detector. Here a passive neutron area monitor with CR39 track detector was designed and the response was calculated. Materials and Methods: The response of a passive neutron area monitor with C...

Title: Neutron Responses of a Novel Multi-element Microdosimetric Detector and Its Potential for Dosimetry

A prototype multi-element gaseous detector based on THick Gas Electron Multipliers (THGEMs) has been designed and constructed. A THGEM generates a strong electric field within micro-holes of a sub-millimeter thick insulator, which makes electron multiplication possible without the traditional anode wire electrodes encountered in proportional counters. The wireless structure has been chosen to o...
