With increasing nuclear power plants around the world, it is becoming increasingly important to monitor and account for the Special Nuclear Material. In order to avoid malicious use of SNM as well as unintentional disposal of radioactive materials, homeland security and safeguards need to seek improvement in the tools to monitor SNM.
At Reuter-Stokes, we strive to manufacture and supply the best neutron detectors by offering customization to fit the different needs of specific applications. We can adapt the mechanical size of detectors, from a few mm to many cm in diameter, and from a few cm up to multiple meters in active length. We can adapt the efficiency and sensitivity depending on the neutron flux. Additionally, we can use different bodyshell material, adapt the connectors, adapt the gas mix to increase the speed and efficiency/improve gamma rejection, and optimize our detectors for your specific applications.
Reuter-Stokes has been providing neutron detectors for the homeland security and safeguards application for many decades. Register for the webinar to learn more about the neutron converter technology that is available today and the reasons we recommend certain technology in specific applications.
