This paper describes a measurement of the precision of the new active-neutron-multiplicity assay technique, which is currently under development for bulk uranium containing kilogram quantities of 235U. The new technique analyzes neutron multiplicity data collected with a coincidence counter outfitted with AmLi neutron sources. We report on the observed assay precision and the implications for field use of the technique.
