Use of BC-523a liquid scintillator for simultaneous neutron spectroscopy and gamma counting with the implementation of a neutron history reconstruction algorithm

Creator:

Frey, Wesley D.

Abstract:

Real-time, high efficiency neutron spectroscopy has, historically, been a persistent challenge in the field of radiation detection and, for the most part, has gone unsolved. The most promising method to resolve this challenge, is the boron-capture technique using an organic scintillation system (BC-523a). Detectors that utilize this method possess an...
