Abstract
A neutron detector is disclosed that includes a generally elongate sealed housing. A scintillator based neutron detection assembly is positioned within the elongate housing. The scintillator based neutron detection assembly includes a reflective portion, a plurality of optical fibers, and a scintillator portion. A fiber guide is connected with an end of said scintillator based neutron detection assembly and an end of the at least one bundle of fibers from the plurality of optical fibers is positioned in an output port in the fiber guide. A sensor assembly is included and is connected with the end of the bundle of fibers. An output connector is located on a front end of the generally elongate sealed housing for transmitting an output voltage in response to a neutron event.
