Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book fastidiously examines photoneutron cross-sections, a critical element in discerning photonuclear interactions. These interactions, where photons excite atomic nuclei and induce neutron emission, have been methodically studied by the author due to their significant role in understanding nuclear reactions. By employing an experimental setup comprising a 2-inch diameter BF3 proportional counter situated within a Halpern-type geometry, the responses of various neutron spectra to moderator thickness were empirically scrutinized. This approach yielded an unprecedented detector efficiency, independent of neutron energy and applicable to an extensive range of photoneutron sources. Ultimately, this research establishes an invaluable tool for accurately measuring photoneutron cross-sections, paving the way for more precise investigations into nuclear interactions and their applications.
