TINMAN Thermal Neutron Detector for Aircraft

Auden, Elizabeth; Quinn, Heather; Wender, Stephen A.; O'Donnell, John; Lisowski, Jeffrey; George, Jeffrey S.; Xu, Ning; Black, Dolores A.; Black, Jeffrey B.

TinMan is the first technology to continuously measure thermal neutron intensity during aircraft flight and to define this environment, an important achievement since changes to semiconductors have led electronic parts to become more sensitive to thermal nuetrons that may lead to disturbances in their operation.
