Group-
I need technical information concerning the ability of
commercially-available neutron detectors to measure low levels of
neutron dose from an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Facility (ISFSI). I
am told that that there is a measurable neutron fluence emitted from
these facilities. I do not know the neutron energy spectrum.
A client requires neutron measurements at various distances to
validate modeling efforts. Has anyone had success making these
measurements? I would greatly appreciate any information on the type
of neutron detector used and its detection levels.
Thanks,
