Measurement of the detection efficiency for 130 MeV neutrons of a cylindrical NE213 cell by the associated particle method

7 Neutron Detectors

“…In the so-called associated gamma-ray or particle method the detection of the radiation produced together with the neutron is used to define a start time. From the 7 Li(p,n,y) 7 Be reaction the gammas [148] as well as the 7 Be-particle [149,150] are used.…”

Measurement of the response function and the detection efficiency of an organic liquid scintillator for neutrons between 1 and 30 MeV

“…In the energy region above 20 MeV, contributions from the n-C reactions in the liquid scintillator become more and more important, while the reaction cross sections and the angular distributions are not precise enough. A little efficiency calibration work above the 20 MeV region has been reported [1][2][3][4][5] . However, their results can not be used directly since the size of the detector and the detection threshold are different, even the composition of the scintillator is slightly different.…”
