Abstract :
The importance of reducing the activation of NaI(Tl) detectors when used to detect γ-rays in the presence of an intense neutron environment is discussed. Monte-Carlo calculations are used to design proper shielding for these NaI(Tl) detectors. These results are compared with the experimental measurements.
