MAXED, a computer code for maximum entropy deconvolution of multisphere neutron spectrometer data

Reliable neutron dosimetry requires knowledge of the neutron spectrum. We discuss the problem of analyzing data from a multisphere neutron spectrometer to infer the energy spectrum of the incident neutrons and describe the code MAXED, a computer program developed to apply the maximum entropy principle to this problem. The code and documentation are available from the authors upon request.
