摘要：
Measurement of the three dimensional trajectory and specific ionization of recoil protons using a hydrogen gas time projection chamber provides directional information about incident fast neutrons Here we demonstrate directional fast neutron detection using such a device The wide field of view and excellent gamma rejection that are obtained suggest that this device is well suited to searches for special nuclear materials among other applications (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved
