Conventionally, in order to detect leaked neutrons in nuclear facilities, non-destructive testing of machinery, nuclear medicine fields, etc., a plate-shaped material (hereinafter referred to as In many cases, a detector using a combination of a neutron converter (called a neutron converter) and a photosensitive film was used. Detection of leaked neutrons by a detector that uses a combination of a neutron converter and a photosensitive film can be used to detect leaked neutrons from an object for which the presence or absence of leakage is to be detected or for an object for which the intensity of the neutron beam currently being generated is to be measured. This is done by placing the above detector on the The photosensitive film is then exposed to fluorescence from a neutron converter, which is emitted according to the amount of neutrons detected. This photosensitive film was decomposed and its degree of blackening was measured to determine the intensity of the neutron beam.

The measurement using the conventional detector described above measures the degree of blackening of the developed film, so it is possible to measure neutron beams with very high sensitivity. However, after placing the detector on the object to be detected, it takes time to remove the photosensitive film from the neutron converter and develop it, and these operations must be performed with great care. Furthermore, there are many restrictions such as having to perform these operations in a dark room, which limits the space available for handling them. For the above reasons, it takes several hours or more to roughly determine the neutron dose, and it is impossible to detect it continuously at any time.

Especially in the case of workers handling neutrons as mentioned above,
Instantly determining the degree of neutron exposure is essential for early prevention of radiation damage. Therefore, the fact that measurement using the method described above requires a long time is a very serious drawback for this type of measuring instrument.

It is something to do.

The specific structure of the neutron beam film bag according to the present invention will be explained below based on the drawings. 1 in the drawing
is an aluminum case, 2 is a bag-shaped black light-shielding paper, 3 is an instant photographic film (diffusion transfer photosensitive material),
4 is a neutron converter, and 5 is an alligator clip. Among these, the aluminum case 1 is a case made of a thin aluminum plate with a length of about 1 mm and has an opening 1a only in the upper part, and a semi-cylindrical projection 1b is formed inside the upper front surface thereof. Therefore, when the exposed instant photographic film 3 is pulled upward from the opening 1a of the case 1, the film is pressed by the protrusion 1b and the wall surface on the other side of the case opposite to the protrusion, so that the chemical solution is uniformly and sufficiently applied. It penetrates downward one by one and is developed. The alligator clip 5 is used to attach the badge of the present invention to the chest of the worker.

The neutron beam film badge of the present invention constructed as described above is attached to the clothing of a worker handling neutrons using an alligator clip. When a worker is exposed to leaked neutron beams during work, the neutrons incident from the front of the film badge pass through the aluminum case 1, the black light-shielding paper 2, and the instant photographic film 3, and hit the neutron converter 4. Here, the neutron converter has the same configuration as already described in the explanation of the conventional example, so B 10 or
L i 6 undergoes B 10 (n, α) reaction or L i 6 by neutrons.
(n, α) reaction occurs and α rays are emitted. The α-rays, which have a short flight distance, hit the silver-activated ZnS mixed inside the converter and emit fluorescence with a wavelength of 4500 Å, which sensitizes the film on the front of the converter. After completing the work and leaving the neutron handling area, the upper part of the black light-shielding paper inserted in the film badge is cut off and the exposed film is slowly pulled out from inside at a predetermined speed. While the film is being taken out, it is pressed against a semi-cylindrical protrusion provided on the case, and a chemical solution such as a developer is uniformly applied to the film surface. Further, after a predetermined period of time has elapsed, the adhered positive print is pulled out from the negative film, and a colloidal coating liquid is immediately applied to protect the positive print surface. The degree of exposure can be determined from the photosensitivity of the positive print thus obtained.

It is preferable that the badge of the present invention be small in size so that it can be worn by the worker, but considering the size of instant photographic film, etc., a business card-sized badge is considered suitable. Furthermore, if the aluminum case is made into an assembly type, it can be used again by attaching light-shielding paper containing instant photographic film after use.
