  • Abstract
    A He3 detector has been developed which is suitable for applications involving the detection of thermal and epithermal energy neutrons over an operating temperature range extending to above 200°C. The detector exhibits stable plateau characteristics for fill pressures of up to ten atmospheres in detectors of up to 1.75 inch diameter, and is resistant to degradation from thermal cycling and overtemperature operation.
