Development of a gaseous proton-recoil detector for fission cross section measurements below 1 MeV neutron energy
The elastic H(n,p) reaction is sometimes used to measure neutron flux, in order to produce high precision measurements. The use of this technique is not straightforward to use below incident neutron energy of 1 MeV, due to a high background in the detected proton spectrum. Experiments have been carr...
