Dissemination of units from a reference source of neutrons with energy of 14 MeV

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

A method for the dissemination of units from a standard neutron source with energy 14 MeV by means of activated detectors made of fluoroplastic and aluminum according to the reactions 19F(n, 2n)18F and 27Al(n, α)24Na is described.
