Abstract

A major purpose of the Techni cal Information Center is to provide the broadest dissemination possi ble of-information contained in DOE's Research and Development Reports to business, industry, the academic community, and federal, state and local governments. Although a small portion of this report is not reproducible, it is being made available to expedite the availability of information on the research discussed herein.

“…4. To model the efficiency and to reduce the statistical uncertainties, the SCINFUL-QMD code [25,26] was used. A threshold energy in the response function was searched to obtain the best agreement with the 252 Cf data in the energy range 0.5-1.5 MeV, where we believe the 252 Cf data are reliable.…”

“…3(b)]. The reliability of neutron simulations in the LS was tested by comparison to simulations using the SCINFUL code [11] and a good agreement was found. The calculated efficiencies for the deexcitation modes in Table I are given in Table II.…”

“…The neutron detection efficiencies were obtained by calculation results of the SCINFUL 14) and the CECIL 15) codes. The SCINFUL code is known to reproduce well the detection efficiencies of the NE213 and NE110 scintillators at neutron energies below 80 MeV.…”
