Abstract
A system of the present disclosure is capable of detecting, imaging and measuring both neutrons and gamma rays. The system may be portable and/or field deployable. The system may include two or more detector layer cases and a digital processing unit case. The system has a plurality of parallel plates each containing a plurality of detectors. The plates may have non-PSD organic scintillation detectors, scintillation detectors having pulse-shape discrimination (PSD) properties, and inorganic scintillation detectors. A first plate and a second plate are housed within detector layer cases. The scintillation detectors are used in connection to detect, image and measure neutrons and/or gamma rays.
