Abstract
Neutron emission of spent reactor fuel assemblies was studied with CR-39 solid state track detectors in a nuclear plant. To reduce the effect of disturbing events, a shape selection method was used. For typical exposures the γ-dose fell in the interval of 0.5–3 kGy. The sensitivity decrease was found to be 23±5%kGy γ-dose The overall effect of neighbouring assemblies was within the statistical uncertainty (5%), i.e negligible.
