Description

The energy dependence of the neutron detection efficiency of the 0.953 cm thick NE-912 lithium glass scintillator has been measured by time-of-flight methods with a pulsed Van de Graff accelerator and a 0.935 cm thin Ne-908 lithium glass detector as standard. The measurements have been carried out for two different types of position of the thick galss detector. The energy ranges of measurements were 25 keV < Esub(n) < 2 MeV and 25 keV < Esub(n) < 1.2 MeV. The measured efficiency curve showed the marked effect of the 16O resonance at 442 keV, and a strong increase with energy for Esub(n) > 1.2 MeV, due to (n, n'γ) reactions
