Abstract
A new type of solar neutron detector (NEM) was launched by the space shuttle Endeavour on July 16th, 2009 and it began collecting data on August 25th, 2009 at the International Space Station (ISS). In this paper we introduce not only preliminary results obtained by the NEM-FIB detector but also a possible solar neutron detection in association with the M3.7 solar flare on March 7, 2011.
