  • Build poly box to house source and help thermalize neutron flux
  • Get Cf source
  • Measure rates in He3 tube with differing amounts of poly (and different types) -> get to background levels
    • Thermalize neutron flux from Cf with virgin poly for all measurements
    • Build virgin poly box around Cf source
      • Pretty quick and dirty measurement to figure out which poly is best

Results

Completed attenuation measurements with differing thicknesses of Borated Poly vs unborated poly with and without BorAl.
