Abstract :
After a general discussion on the utility of pulsed high energy neutrons in borehole applications, we summarize the operational and environmental characteristics of borehole configured neutron generators. We discuss design, operation and performance characteristics of a 1 11/16" outside diameter generator which has recently been developed for use in geologic well logging.
