Abstract

A prototype of detector for neutron fluxes, induced by electron and proton showers, registration has been designed. Neutron detector (ND) consists of three alternating layers composed of cadmium plates and plastic scintillator. An optimal detector solution based on a mathematical simulation has been proposed. This article contains technical information and a description of the experiment to determine neutron detection efficiency, as well as experimental and simulation data analysis results.
