A systematic error affecting NER calculations

Roberta Mulford

Cited by 0Open access

Abstract

Factors that may affect the precision of Neutron Emission Rate (NER) measurements made in the Canberra 4 neutron counter have been examined and quantified. [1] Measurements of sample NER are corrected for the efficiency of the counter. The efficiency is calculated by measuring a source of known intensity, and taking the ratio of the measured neutrons per second (n/s) to the known output of the source.
