Demonstrating a directional detector based on neon for characterizing high energy neutrons

MITPC is a gas-based time projection chamber used for detecting fast, MeV-scale neutrons. The standard version of the detector relies on a mixture of 600 torr gas composed of 87.5% ⁴He and 12.5% CF₄ for precisely measuring the energy and direction of neutron-induced nuclear recoils. We describe stud...
