ABSTRACT:
A neutron detector that includes a hollow member extending along and circumscribing an axis. The hollow member has an interior surface and bounds a volume. The detector also includes an anode extending within the volume. The detector also includes a cathode that includes at least one fin extending within the volume. The fin has a substrate material with at least one surface. At least part of the interior surface of the hollow member and the surface of the at least one fin have neutron sensitive material thereon.
