Large High-Efficiency Thermal Neutron Detectors Based on the Micromegas Technology

Due to the so-called <sup>3</sup>He shortage crisis, many detection techniques for thermal neutrons are currently based on alternative converters. There are several possible ways of increasing the detection efficiency for thermal neutrons using the solid neutron-to-charge converters <...
