The performance of a neutron sensitive gaseous detector based on thick gaseous electron multiplier detectors.(THGEM)

Introduction

Gaseous electron multiplier detectors lately become very common in nuclear and high energy physics experiments. The detector has has ability to detect the rare events in a high resolution.In addition to its flexibility to adapt any shape and any detection area needed for any experiment. Furthermore, THGEM is rebust,economic in design and operating.

Neutrons are nucleons with neutral charge, They interacts generally with high atomic number elements that have high cross sections for certain reactions.Mostly,the neutron interactions are represented by fission, capture,conversion (to an alpha or a proton) and scattering.
