Neutron transmutation doped (NTD) Ge irradiated 12 years ago, and hence with a low background radioactivity, was used to make thermometric sensors mounted on pure silicon targets. ~/-ray detection with a sensitivity in the range of 1 keV was achieved in a 5.7 g target. An excess heat capacity of the
We developed a new detector system for neutron diffraction measurements. The new system consists of a sheet having thermal luminosity, a neutron converter, and a CCD camera. The sheet is made by a BaSO 4 :Eu, Cl-10 B 2 O 3 mixture covered with a Teflon binder. The a-particles induced by incident neu
