ABSTRACT:
A self-powered neutron flux detector having an emitter electrode, at least a major portion of which is, .sup.95 Mo encased in a tubular collector electrode and separated therefrom by dielectric material. The .sup.95 Mo emitter electrode has experimentally shown a 98% prompt response, is primarily sensitive to neutron flux, has adequate sensitivity and has low burn up. Preferably the emitter electrode is molybdenum which has been enriched 75% to 99% by weight with .sup.95 Mo.
