Extraction of neutron pulses from coincidence summed events via machine learning - like algorithm

Neutron scintillators are generally used for detecting fast neutrons through the elastic scattering with protons inside the detector medium. Due to the isotropic behavior of elastic scattering, the energy spectrum produced by the neutron scintillator is continuous from zero to energy of interacting neutron. For a non-monoenergetic distribution of neutrons, this response will be more complicated. However, the neutron spectrum can be rebuilt from this information via spectrum unfolding. There are different methods reported for unfolding the neutron spectrum with better accuracies
