This 4π sensitive neutron counter consists of a spherical polyethylene moderator and three charge-division-type Position-Sensitive Proportional Counters (PSPCs) inserted into the moderator orthogonally with each other. The three PSPCs give thermal neutron distributions in the spherical moderator that bring us the above information. The characteristics of this neutron counter have been studied with Monte Carlo simulations and with experiments using monoenergetic neutrons.}, pages = {644--648}, title = {A Multipurpose Spherical Neutron Counter}, volume = {42}, year = {1995} }
