Abstract
⺠Up to now the spectral parameters of thermal neutrons are measured with activation foils that are not always reliable in low flux systems. ⺠We applied a solid state nuclear track detector to measure the absolute neutron flux in the light water sub-critical reactor (LWSCR). ⺠Experiments concerning fission track detecting were performed and were investigated using the Monte Carlo code MCNP. ⺠The neutron fluxes obtained in experiment are in fairly good agreement with the results obtained by MCNP.
