Abstract
A detector array includes a plurality of neutron detectors. Each neutron detector includes an anode and a cathode including at least some B-10 boron. The array includes at least one gamma detector engaged against at least one neutron detector within the array. A detector array includes a plurality of detectors engaged against each other. The plurality of detectors includes at least one neutron detector and at least one gamma detector. In one specific example, the at least one neutron detector contains B-10. An associated method adjusts information concerning a value of neutron detection.
