Abstract
The neutron and gamma sensitivities of nine detectors were studied in experiments performed at the Sandia Pulsed Reactor (SPR). Of the detectors tested, six are predominantly gamma detectors at the SPR and three produce a significant fraction of their total current due to the neutron flux during a normal SPR burst. None of the detectors studied were found to be predominantly sensitive to the neutron flux during a normal SPR burst. Tests performed at pure gamma sources on a P-Intrinsic-N (PIN) diode detector are also described. The neutron induced current in the silicon detectors is treated theoretically.
