ABSTRACT:
A radiation-detection/scintillation composite in which a multiplicity of particulate glass carriers embodying radiation target nuclei are embedded within a matrix of solid scintillation plastic composition. The glass target-containing carriers have an index of refraction which closely matches that of the scintillation plastic. In one embodiment of the invention, the carriers comprise hollow spherical micro-size shells containing He-3 gas detection nuclei under pressure. In another embodiment, Li, B or Pb or other heavy element detection nuclei are contained within the composition of the glass carriers.
