Abstract
Abstract A new type of two-dimensional neutron scintillation detector with high spatial resolution based on a position-sensitive photomultiplier has been investigated. With a 6Li glass scintillator a spatial resolution of 1.0 mm was measured. The integral linearity over the detection area of 55 × 45 mm2 is ⩽1.5 mm. The detector homogeneity is within 10% at a discriminator level at 60% of the average peak height. The spatial resolution is expressed by a geometrical parameter which could be evaluated from light experiments and by the number of photoelectrons per neutron capture.
