  • Abstract
    A wide range neutron flux monitoring test channel based on counting and mean-square voltage techniques has been installed at the EBR-II. The measured responses to neutron flux are presented and compared to those predicted. Data taken while the reactor is on an essentially constant period during typical re-starts are shown. The gamma discrimination ratio for this system has been determined and is discussed.
