SCINTILLATION DETECTOR FOR DISCRIMINATION RECORDING OF HEAVY AND LIGHT IONIZING PARTICLES (in Russian)

Journal Article · · Pribory i Tekh. Ekspt.
OSTI ID:4840306
A design is given for a scintillation detector with a device for discrimination recording of electrons and heavy particles. The detector is capable of recording separately gamma rays and neutrons. Measurements with a Po-Be neutron source and a gamma source showed that the detector is capable of recording neutrons at over 1-Mev energy without losing the count of 3-Mev recoil protons. Without the device the efficiency of gamma recording is reduced 1.5 x 10/sup -6/ N: 1, where N is the number of pulses recorded per second. The detector operates at a load up to 2 x 10/sup 3/ pulse/sec. Stilbene and naphthaline with anthranilic acid were used in discrimination gamma -ray recording. (R.V.J.)
