Re: Solution to Unusual Gamma Spec Spectrum

[Cristian Nicolau <cnicolau@nbnet.nb.ca>]

"I wonder why this effect wasn't noticed and acknowledged at nuclear
power plants where water samples containing boron are routinely analyzed
and "boronometers" are in use."

Probably because no one will measure boron containing water for a long
time, or if done, that water will contain some other radioactive stuff
which will cover the small peak, which will not be recognized as a peak
by the software if appears. Anyhow the phenomena is "cool" and the
explanation very hard to oppose. Congratulations.
