Abstract

The efficiency of counter telescopes containing a 15.2 cm thick NaI(Tl) crystal for detecting protons with energies in the range 50–350 MeV has been measured. An investigation was made of the dependence of the efficiency on the position of the proton in the counter. The results of the measurements are in close agreement with the calculations of efficiencies using available reaction cross section data.
