本文件的目的是作为一个全面的应用指南被动中子多重性计数，一个新的无损检测（NDA）技术在过去的十年中发展。该文件描述了多重性计数器的设计，电子学和数学原理。对能源部（DOE）设施中的现有计数器进行了调查，并对其操作要求和程序进行了定义。目前的应用钚材料类型在能源部设施中发现的描述，并给出预期的分析精度和偏差的估计。最后，总结了多重计数器选择和采购的指导方针。该文件还包括一个详细的参考资料收集被动中子符合和多重性出版物在过去的10至15年。
This document is intended to serve as a comprehensive applications guide to passive neutron multiplicity counting, a new nondestructive assay (NDA) technique developed over the past ten years. The document describes the principles of multiplicity counter design, electronics, and mathematics. Existing counters in Department of Energy (DOE) facilities are surveyed, and their operating requirements and procedures and defined. Current applications to plutonium material types found in DOE facilities are described, and estimates of the expected assay precision and bias are given. Lastly, guidelines for multiplicity counter selection and procurement are summarized. The document also includes a detailed collection of references on passive neutron coincidence and multiplicity publications over the last ten to fifteen years.
