This standard covers the requirements for a high gamma tolerant, BF$sub 3$ filled proportional counter (also called detector) for use in neutron detection systems requiring operation in gamma flux environments to 10$sup 3$ R/ hr. This standard applies only to the detector; however, when used with other appropriate standards or specifications, it is intended that more complete assemblies (integral detector and cable or special shielded systems) can be obtained. Required performance characteristics are detailed, and the tests to assure this performance are described. (auth
