Abstract
The characteristics of scintillation detectors for neutron physics such as efficiency, timing resolution, size, pulse height resolution, backgrounds, are reviewed. Solid and liquid organic scintillation detectors are now widely used for neutrons from 10 keV to 200 MeV. Detailed calculations and measurements of the pulse height distributions and efficiencies for several organic scintillation detectors are presented. 6Li glass scintillation detectors are valuable as neutron flux monitors and as efficient neutron detectors below 10 keV. Problems associated with these 6Li glass scintillation detectors are discussed. Examples of many scintillation detectors in use today are described.
