A FAST NEUTRON TIME-OF-FLIGHT SPECTROMETER WITH APPLICATIONS. Technical Paper No. 176

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4842753
A versatile neutron time-of-flight spectrometer suitable for use in the millimicrosecond region is described. Either the r-f beam deflection method or the gamma coincidence method is used to provide the zero-time indication. Details of the methods, along with spectra obtained for some (d,n) reactions, are given. The two systems are compatible and make use of the same simple time- topulse-height converter. The dependence of the decay time of a liquid scintillator on the specific ionization of the detected particle was used to make the neutron detector insensitive to gamma-rays. (auth)
