Count enhancing techniques

High count rates are desired because they produce small counting uncertainties. Lab C offers two types of count enhancing for moderated sensors:

(1) A new Li-core thermal neutron detector has 3.5 times the count rate of the COSMOS standard He-based sensor (both equipped with the standard 1-inch moderator).

(2) A new proprietary count enhancement technique [Patented technology] yields up to two times higher moderated neutron count rates from the same thermal neutron detector. For Li-core detector this factor is 1.3; for He-core detector it is 2; and for BF3 it is 1.6.

Items 1 and 2 can be combined.
