Abstract
We consider the effects of the junction geometry in view of the requirements imposed by a possible use of Josephson tunnel junctions as nuclear detectors. The magnetic field dependence of the critical-current of rhombus shaped junctions has been investigated both experimentally and theoretically.

The procedure can be easily extended to a more general polygonal geometry.
