What is it about?
The neutron detection is a widely used tool in many fields (industry, nuclear industry, homeland security, oil well logging). The typical detector makes use of Helium-3, but there is a worldwide shortage of this gas, with a consequent cost explosion. Our detector provides a cheaper and less bulky solution to this problem.

Why is it important?
Neutron detection with position sensitivity, no Helium-3, no gas, only using well consolidated and robust silicon detector technology, at a lower price.
