A new detector for neutron capture cross section measurements

Capture cross-section measurements of some medium- and heavy-weight nuclei in the keV region

“…Recently some improvements in efficiency over the original Moxon-Rae detector were published. A many-layer-detector was developed by Weigmann et al 12). But the efficiency of 2.4• 1O- 3 jMeV is still rather small for Van de Graaff applications.…”
