Phosphor?

This area is for discussions involving any fusion related radiation metrology issues. Neutrons are the key signature of fusion, but other radiations are of interest to the amateur fusioneer as well.

Hi Ritchard -- I was thinking of the 'Low Energy'
Fluorescent lamp -- you know the one which uses 16 watt for 120 w light output

the phosphor in Fluorescent lights is normally calcium tungstate and this is not a good nuclear phosphor. The relaxation time is too great.
