<p>An apparatus for detecting neutrons includes a cerium activated scintillation crystal (10) containing 10B, with the scintillation crystal emitting light in response to α particles emitted from the 10B(n,α)Li* reaction. The apparatus also includes a gamma scintillator (14) positioned adjacent the crystal and which generates light in response to gamma rays emitted from the decay of Li*. The apparatus further includes a first and a second light-to-electronic signal converter (12) each positioned to respectively receive light from the crystal and the gamma scintillator, and each respectively outputting first and second electronic signals representative of α particles from the 10B(n,α)Li* reaction and gamma rays from the 10B(n,α)Li* reaction.</p> |
