Abstract :
This paper describes the results of combined neutron and gamma ray irradiation tests conducted on two makes of piezoresistive accelerometers. Units were irradiated to total neutron doses of 7 X 1013, 5 X 1014, and 5 X 1015neutrons̷cm2. One make, Bytrex, Inc. Model AV 1000, operated satisfactorily at all doses.
