Experimental investigation of alternative He-3 neutron detectors for the active neutron method

Komeda, Masao   ; Maeda, Makoto  ; Shimofusa, Taichi; Tobita, Hiroshi; Ozu, Akira  ; Kureta, Masatoshi   

He-3 detectors are most popular for NDA systems of the active neutron method. However, the price of He-3 detectors is rising due to short supply of the He-3 gas, and it is concerned that the cost of fabricating a NDA system with many He-3 detectors is rising. A new hybrid detector called B-10 plus detector has been developed by GE Reuter-Stokes. The B-10 plus detector has higher detection efficiency than a B-10 detector while the usage of He-3 gas is reduced. We make a report on experimental results of performance comparison between He-3 detectors and B-10 plus detectors on the active neutron method.
