Abstract
The use of platinum as the emitter in a self-powered flux detector produces a mixed neutron and gamma sensitivity, but typically a higher proportion of prompt response, that is maintained throughout life, than for earlier types. The detector has high output and a low burnup rate, confirmed by two years of extensive tests at high flux.Keywords
