Abstract

The use of commercially available bubble detectors for gamma and neutron detection has been reported by several groups. We have carried out systematic investigations to study the response of gamma bubble detector as a function of energy, the effect of waiting time on sensitivity of BD-100R neutron bubble detector and the effect of shelf life on both types of bubble detectors. Our results show that the response of the gamma bubble detector is energy dependent. Waiting time of up to 260 hours for BD-100R neutron detector has no significant effect. Both the detectors have a limited shelf life. These factors must be taken into account while using these detectors.
