The spectrometer, which consists of plastic scintillator bars, can be operated in the neutron energy range of 100 keV-10 MeV. The neutron energy is determined using the time-of-flight technique, while the position of the neutron detection is deduced from the time-difference information from photomultipliers attached to both ends of each bar. A novel wrapping method has been developed for the plastic scintillators. The array has a larger than 25{\%} detection efficiency for neutrons of approximately 500 keV in kinetic energy and an angular resolution of less than 1 degrees. Details of the design, construction and experimental tests of the spectrometer will be presented.", optnote="WOS:000329404000002", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1695), last updated on Thu, 06 Feb 2014 19:16:12 +0000", issn="0168-9002", doi="10.1016/j.nima.2013.10.038", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1310.6431", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2013.10.038", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1310.6431", language="English" }
