Abstract :
The directional properties of a modified Bonner-type spectrometer, using spheres with a radial hole, are described in this report. It was found that spheres with these modifications are able to detect the spatial distribution of a neutron field. The neutrons were generated by the 9Be(d,n)10B reaction, produced by bombarding a thick Be target with 4 MeV deutrons provided by a tandem Van de Graaff accelerator.
