NOVEL DISCRIMINATING MOLECULE FAMILY FOR NEUTRON AND GAMMA RADIATION
First Claim
1. Method for detecting gamma, X, neutron, proton radiation, comprising the step of detecting the fluorescence of a fluorophore compound F1 carrying an organic cationic group combined with a counter-anion, or else carrying an anionic group combined with an organic counter-cation, said cationic group or organic counter-cation comprising at least one heteroatom chosen from among N, S or P carrying a positive charge.

Abstract
The invention relates to a novel discriminating molecule family for neutron and gamma radiation, and to the preparation method thereof. Said molecules are also useful for detecting radiation (X, gamma, electrons, protons, ions), and thus for manufacturing radar, and industrial or medical dosimetry instruments.
