Superheated Emulsion in Neutron Spectrometry

The application of superheated emulsion as a neutron spectrometer is described by varying the operating temperature and the ambient pressure of the emulsion. For the calibration of the detector, a relationship was established between the degree of metastability (ss) of superheated emulsion and the threshold neutron energy. The sensitivity and the integral response of the emulsion was calculated and compared with the experimental results.
