自1960年以来，邦纳球光谱仪（BSS）在中子光谱分析中得到了广泛的应用。这些慢化探测器对中子的反应跨越了一个很宽的能量范围。本文讨论了一个扩展范围BSS的灵敏度测量，该BSS承载了一个耦合到硼转炉的CR39核径迹探测器。对两种硼转化器进行了测试，第一种是由天然硼制成的，第二种是富含硼-10的。利用MCNPX 2.4.0进行蒙特卡罗模拟，计算BSS响应函数。和FLUKA密码
Bonner sphere spectrometers (BSS) are being used widely in neutron spectrometry since 1960. The response to neutrons of these moderating detectors spans over a broad energy range. This work discusses the measurement of the sensitivity of an extended range BSS hosting a CR39 nuclear track detector coupled to a boron converter. Two kinds of boron converters were tested, the first made by natural boron and a second one enriched in B-10. The BSS response functions were calculated with Monte Carlo simulation using the MCNPX 2.4.0. and the FLUKA codes.
