Radiation Detection: Neutron Detection in Reactors

This lecture covers the principles of neutron detection in nuclear reactors, including active and passive detection methods, difficulties in in-core detection, and the need for miniature instrumentation. It also discusses the CROCUS reactor at EPFL, the MiMi neutron detectors, and the SAFFRON 3D mapping system. The presentation emphasizes the challenges and advancements in high-resolution neutron flux measurements within reactor cores.
