Abstract
The effect of passive iron converters was investigated at energies of 20–140 MeV. An enhanced detection efficiency for neutron energies above 70 MeV was found using iron converters of 2–3 cm thickness. The experimental findings will be implemented in a high-efficiency large-area detector for neutrons in the energy range 100–200 MeV at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory.
