We demonstrate an improved technique for determining the multiplication of highly subcritical systems that uses the moments of the counting distribution from a neutron detector. In the investigation, the multiplications of each of 2, 3, and 4 kg part

Monte Carlo calculations of a bismuth-germanate scintillator's efficiency agree closely with experimental measurements. For this comparison, we studied the absolute gamma-ray photopeak efficiency of a scintillator (7.62 cm long by 7.62 cm in diameter

We report a new procedure for unfolding gamma-ray pulse-height distributions acquired with bismuth-germanate detectors. The equipment used for acquiring the distributions consists of a LeCroy 3500 data acquisition and analysis system and eight bismut

Bismuth germanate (BGO) scintillators are preferable to NaI(Tl) scintillators or germanium detectors for some applications. We describe two systems based on BGO scintillators for applications in nuclear safeguards and health physics. The first system

A fast an accurate interpolation method for determining gamma-ray attenuation coefficients has been developed. Based on a simple program that can be stored in a hand calculator, the method fits the attenuation coefficients as a function of gamma-ray

The He(2 3 s ) afterglow technique for the determination of trace impurities in helium utilizes the bimolecular, energy-transfer reactions of electronically metastable atoms with impurities and spectroscopic detection of the resulting emissions from

A neutron detection system has been constructed to measure neutron multiplicities from photoreactions. The detector consists of fifty-three 3 He proportional counters in a polythene cube 61 cm on a side. The detection efficiency for prompt neutrons f

An electronic circuit is described which, when presented with the discriminator-output pulses from a large, high-efficiency neutron-detection system, digitally sorts the number of pulses occurring in an adjustable count gate period and presents these
