Abstract
A re-usable superheated liquid neutron detector (SLNS-2) device has be en developed and its performance has been evaluated over 35 exposure r echarge cycles. The data pertaining to energy independence (average en ergy 0.5-4.4 MeV), dose rate independence (125-500 mu Sv.hr(-1)), resp onse to gamma radiations, recharge cycle performance and real time res ponse are presented.
