Abstract

We have been developing a Micro-Strip Gas Chamber (MSGC) with individual readouts for neutron scattering experiments. Performance requirements of a two-dimensional position sensitive neutron imaging detector for detecting an accurate Bragg-peak from a sample target include high spatial resolution, high detection efficiency, fast temporal response, and low gamma-ray sensitivity. To meet these specifications in addition to achieving a compact size in spite of the multi-channels in the gas based detector, we constructed a detector system that has a gas vessel with 541 channel feedthrough directly connecting to the data processing circuits. The developed detector system exhibited a pulse pair resolution of less than 1 mus, a spatial resolution of about 0.8 mm in full width at half maximum and good agreement between the position of incident neutron and measured peak position
