The data on the single neutron angular distribution were extracted from the experimental data. All production runs with DU target were processed.
It was observed the angle between single neutron trajectory hitting the detector surface in different x-coordinates and incident photon direction for each of the plastic paddle detectors. This geometry is presented below:
Below each detector there is calculated (using the geometry) value of the angle between the photon beam and the neutron central trajectory hitting the detector.
The single neutron angular distribution for each detector extracted from the experimental data and simulation is presented below. In the simulation 3E+6 neutrons were sampled from the point source placed at the positipon of the target isotropically in 4pi.

As can be seen there is no overlap in the single neutron angular distributions for the neutron detectors and the normalization of simulated single neutron angular distribution (w/o y-resolution) to the total number of neutrons sampled and division of the experimental single neutron angular distribution by the normalized simulation data shows that the angular distribution is close to be flat for all the neutron detectors.
