Abstract

A scintillator detector of neutrons and nuclear fragments has been designed, manufactured, and tested on a cosmic-ray stand. The scintillation light is collected with the standard photomultiplier (PMT) and six silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) spaced across the scintillator volume to improve positional sensitivity detector position-sensitive. Data on the detector design and the test results are presented.
