Our array of detectors has a highly non-uniform neutron efficiency and acceptance w.r.t. neutron-neutron opening angle. This is due to the array's non-spherically symmetric geometry, and to its neutron detection efficiency as a function of both particle position and energy (see figure). For this reason, every measured distribution in this experiment is made meaningful by normalization against
