Abstract
A fast method to calibrate a large neutron detector array, used in neu tron decay coincidence experiments, is presented. In the calibration p rocedure, use is made of the coincidence data collected in a study of neutron decay of excited hole states populated by the Pb-208(He-3,alph a) reaction at an energy of 102 MeV.
