ABSTRACT:
A neutron detection device is housed in a metal enclosure containing a first detector with a high-sensitivity fission chamber, and a second detector having a low-sensitivity fission chamber and a boron-lined ionization chamber compensated for gamma radiation. The detection device is useful for extended range measurement of the neutron fluence rate outside the core of a nuclear reactor.
