Abstract: Any practical workplace neutron spectrum spans in energy from the thermal domain up to the maximum production energy. Determining the whole neutron spectrum usually requires multiple devices covering different energy sub-intervals, and invariably constitutes a complex and time-consuming task. The Bonner sphere spectrometer (BSS) is still regarded as the state-of-art instrument for neutron spectrometry in radiation protection, but it requires multiple exposures and has no capability to operate as a real-time spectrometric monitor.
