Abstract
In this study, for calibration of emission rate of radioisotopic neutron sources, a suitable vanadium salt was proposed instead manganese sulfate because the shorter half-life of 52V would facilitate faster neutron yield measurements to be made with a shorter delay time between subsequent measurements. Using Monte Carlo method, different correction factors of manganese and vanadyl sulfate baths were calculated and compared with each other. The results showed that for having an appropriate efficiency of VBS, high concentrations of solution must be used.
