Abstract
Measurements of the environmental neutron flux in the vicinity of dark matter search experiments are important because signals induced by these neutrons can mimic those that are expected from dark matter interactions. In order to establish a systematic understanding of the environmental neutron flux at the location of the COSINE-100 experiment, we developed a liquid scintillator neutron detector and studied its pulse shape discrimination capabilities and background contamination levels. In this paper, the construction of the neutron monitoring detector is presented.
