Abstract

See full text

In the prior art, plural detectors are arranged in order to specify the incident direction of neutron, and in principle for specifying the incident direction, the positions for arranging the detectors are predetermined or restricted, so that there is no flexibility in the arrangement. This causes large restriction on the appearance or the shape of a detector in designing, and it is difficult to adopt such a technique particularly for a wearable detector requiring a sufficient flexibility in shape to cope with the change of appearance shape.

    By using plural neutron detection parts set to a moderator such as a human body, a water-containing substance, polyethylene or the like, and comparing the counts at the detection parts, the direction of a neutron radiation source can be specified. In addition, since arrangement of the plural neutron detection parts is not restricted as long as the detection parts do not overlap each other when they are set to the moderator, the detection parts can be set to a flexible material such as cloth, and therefore, a sufficient flexibility in shape to cope with the change of appearance shape can be given to the detector.
