Popis:	This paper describes the 3-D array of scintillation detectors made of a plastic scintillator. Its operation is based on obtaining simultaneously the signal arrival time, spatial coordinates, and amplitude of scintillation signal produced in detection elements by radiation. Such arrays are capable of identifying and localizing neutron and gamma sources, discriminating signals from these sources, and reducing the background caused by gamma rays, cosmic-ray muons, and neutrons.
