Research Abstract

A new neutron imaging detector with a new radiation detector (GEM) was developed. A test chamber was constructed and it showed good capability for high counting rate, high position resolution, and high timing resolution. Also, good performance was obtained for the energy-selective neutron imaging in pulse neutron sources.
