Abstract

In the early days of electronic neutron imaging, the best available and most expensive components were used to build detectors. Experience has shown that only few parameters are truly important, so we have built a whole new line of specialized neutron imaging detectors based on astronomy cameras and 3D printed housings with external shielding. As an additional benefit, 3D printed housings produce no gammas on neutron capture, and provide nearly spot-free images. Plans and print files for 3D printed detectors are available for free on request.
