Abstract

It is shown that the Bragg-Gray principle can be applied to proportional counter designs in such a manner that the absolute tissue dose (and hence the flux if the energy spectrum is known) due to fast neutrons can be measured. The method has the combined advantages of high sensitivity to fast neutrons and very low sensitivity to γ radiation. Two practical designs are described.
