He3 filled ionization chamber as a neutron detector
The threshold energy for the reaction Br⁸¹ (p,n)Kr⁸¹ was measured and found to be 1.133±.020 Mev. The threshold for Cd¹¹⁶(p,n)ln¹¹⁶ was searched for up to 1.8 Mev but was not found. The density of cosmic neutrons was measured at the earth's surface. It was found to be 4.2±.7x10⁻⁹ n/cm³ over...
