Multi-channel plastic-scintillator-based detection system for monitoring tritium in air
Bibliographic record
Abstract
To overcome the limitations of the ionization chamber-based tritium monitor, a design for a multichannel plastic scintillator-based detection chamber for monitoring tritium in air is proposed. The performance of the chamber was characterized by Monte Carlo-based calculations with various design parameters such as thickness of the plastic scintillator (t) and number of channels (n). We considered the volume and detection efficiency of the chamber to evaluate the performance of the detector. The expected counting rate curve was in good agreement with the expected simplified physical model. The minimum detectable activity (MDA) was shown at t = 0.5 mm and n = 48 and estimated to be 29.9 kBq/m3. Compared with the experimentally estimated MDA, the relative difference was approximately 24%. However, this difference is understandable considering the different lower level of discrimination and light loss during transportation assumed in the model. The proposed tritium detection chamber is expected to be useful for environmental monitoring at some level as well as for monitoring of tritium leaks from fusion or CANada Deuterium Uranium (CANDU)-type reactors.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
