Characteristics of a phoswich detector to measure the neutron spectrum in a mixed field of neutrons and charged particles

Creators

Description

A phoswich detector composed of NE115 and NE213 scintillators has been developed to distinguish gamma-ray, neutron, and proton events. The detector performance was investigated in a neutron-proton mixed field at National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS), which showed satisfactory particle identification
