A neutron detector with a threshold at 20.6 Mev is described which is based on the C/sup 12/(n,2n)C/sup 11/ reaction in liquid organic scintillators. The efficiency of the detector is almost independent of neutron energy from --40 Mev to --400 Mev. The detector can be used to measure with an error of 6% high- energy neutron fluxes in the tolerance range (20 to 50 n/cm/sup 2/ sec). (auth)
