Neutron detection in scintillation systems exploits the interaction of neutrons with hydrogen or high-cross-section nuclei within organic or inorganic matrices to produce prompt scintillation light.

Neutron detection underpins a wide range of scientific, industrial and security applications, from reactor monitoring and neutron scattering to medical imaging and homeland security. Traditional ...

Launched on the fifth Orbital ATK resupply mission to the station, the Fast Neutron Spectrometer is designed to detect and measure the energy of neutrons, which are known to be specifically harmful to ...
