title: Neutron spectrometry for radiation protection.
abstract: The various instruments used for neutron spectrometry can be divided into four categories. Within each of these categories, the underlying measurement principle for all devices is essentially the same. The applications of the instruments within each group to spectrometry for radiation protection are reviewed.
