【 摘 要 】

The description of the recording system of a new installation for registration of atmospheric neutrons (URAN array) which is created as a part of the experimental complex NEVOD is presented. The recording system is based on 12-bit ADC with a sampling frequency of 200 MHz and possibility to reduce a clock frequency to 1 MHz for detection of neutrons after their thermalization. The setup has an independent cluster structure. The URAN first stage includes 6 clusters of 12 detectors each located on the roofs of two buildings: complex NEVOD and its neighbor.
