适用范围

5.1 Refer to Guide E844 for the selection, irradiation, and quality control of neutron dosimeters.

5.2 Refer to Practice E261 for a general discussion of the determination of fast-neutron fluence rate with threshold detectors.

5.3 Pure nickel in the form of foil or wire is readily available, and easily handled.

5.4 58Co has a half-life of 70.86 days3 and emits a gamma ray with an energy of 0.8107593-MeV.4

5.5 Competing activities 65Ni(2.5172 h) and 57Ni(35.60 h) are formed by the reactions 64Ni(n,??) 65Ni, and 58Ni(n,2n)57Ni, respectively.

5.6 A second 9.04 h isomer, 58mCo, is formed that decays to 70.86-day 58Co. Loss of 58Co and 58mCo by thermal-neutron burnout will occur in environments5,6 having thermal fluence rates of 38201;??8201;1012 cm???2??s ???1 and above. Burnout correction factors, R, are plotted as a function of time for several thermal fluxes in Fig. 1. Tabulated values for a continuous irradiation time are provided in Hogg, et al.6

5.7 Fig. 2 shows a plot of cross section7 versus energy for the fast-neutron reaction 58Ni(n,p) 58Co. This figure is for illustrative purposes only to indicate the range of response of the 58Ni(n,p) reaction. Refer to Guide E1018 for descriptions of recommended tabulated dosimetry cross sections.

Note 1???The data is taken from the Evaluated Nuclear Data File, ENDF/B-VI, rather than the later ENDF/B-VII. This is in accordance with E1018, section 6.1, since the later ENDF/B-VII data files do not include covariance information. For more details see Section H of reference 8.8
