    Abstract: A radiation detector can include a scintillating material to produce scintillation light in response to receiving neutrons, gamma radiation, potentially other targeted radiation, or any combination thereof. In a particular embodiment, the detector converts scintillating light to an electrical pulse and analyzes the shape of the electrical pulse to determine whether neutrons, gamma rays, or potentially other targeted radiation are detected. The detector can be configured to distinguish between neutrons and gamma rays. The scintillating material can extend over a length greater than approximately 1.1 meters. In an embodiment, the radiation detector can be used near a passageway to detect radioactive material passing through the passageway. More particularly, the radiation detector can be used to detect the radioactive material within a vehicle passing through the passageway.

    Abstract: A radiation detection system can include a photosensor to receive light from a scintillator via an input and to send an electrical pulse at an output in response to receiving the light. The radiation detection system can also include a pulse analyzer that can determine whether the electrical pulse corresponds to a neutron-induced pulse, based on a ratio of an integral of a particular portion of the electrical pulse to an integral of a combination of a decay portion and a rise portion of the electrical pulse. Each of the integrals can be integrated over time. In a particular embodiment, the pulse analyzer can be configured to compare the ratio with a predetermined value and to identify the electrical pulse as a neutron-induced pulse when the ratio is at least the predetermined value.
