Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of nuclear technology application and particularly relates to a wide-energy-spectrum BF3 long neutron counter, the average energy response of the long neutron counter is 3.01 cm<2>, and the average relative deviation is 6.87%. An MCNP5 program is used for controlling a simulation calculation result to be within a statistical error range of 0.78 percent; the relative detection efficiency of the long neutron counter at the position 150 cm away from a point source is simulated, the relative detection efficiency is 2.05*10<-3> to 2.62*10<-3> within the energy range of 1 KeV to 15.2 MeV, the average relative detection efficiency epsilon is 2.31*10<-3>, and the average deviation is 6.84%. The long neutron counter overcomes the problems that in the prior art, the energy lower limit of a neutron counter is high, the energy response is sharply reduced in a range of above 5 MeV, the energy response flat range is not long enough and the like, and the requirements of high-flux-rate monitoring of most accelerator neutron sources or neutron fluence rate calibration of radioactive isotope neutron sources can be met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the application field of nuclear technology, in particular to a BF with a wide energy spectrum 3 Long neutron counter measurement system. Background technique [0002] The neutron detection efficiency of the long neutron counter is constant with the change of neutron energy and the n and γ discrimination performance is high.
