    Abstract: A gas filled probe is positioned within a reactor to intercept gamma rays developed therein. The gamma rays above a predetermined threshold energy level develop Compton recoil electrons in the gas and tube with velocities greater than the velocity of light in the gas. The Cherenkov radiation resulting from the slowing down of the electrons is detected and measured by a photomultiplier to measure the power level of the reactor.
