Description

A large NaI Crystal (16x16x24 cm3) is operated in a combined neutron and gamma-ray field in the energy range from 12 to 36 MeV. Pulse shape discrimination is employed to separate (n, charged particles) reaction products in NaI. Fluorescence efficiencies for various charged particles are studied. (orig.)
