Technique for the measurement of intrinsic pulse-shape discrimination for organic scintillators using tagged neutrons

Pulse-shape discrimination of La halide scintillators

The bright scintillators LaCl3:Ce and LaBr3:Ce were tested for a–g pulse-shape discrimination (PSD). PSD is demonstrated for LaCl3:Ce but not for LaBr3:Ce: r 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Pulse-shape discrimination with PbWO4 crystal scintillators

The light output, α/β ratio, and pulse shape have been investigated at −25◦ C with PbWO4 crystal scintillators undoped, and doped by F, Eu, Mo, Gd and S. The fast 0.01 − 0.06 μs and middle 0.1 − 0.5 μs components of scintillation decay were observed for all the samples. Slow components of scintillation signal with the decay times 1− 3 μs and 13− 28 μs with the total intensity up to ≈ 50% have b...

the use of appropriate madm model for ranking the vendors of mci equipments using fuzzy approach

abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...

Digital pulse-shape discrimination of fast neutrons and γ rays

Discrimination of the detection of fast neutrons and γ rays in a liquid scintillator detector has been investigated using digital pulse-processing techniques. An experimental setup with a 252Cf source, a BC-501 liquid scintillator detector, and a BaF2 detector was used to collect waveforms with a 100 Ms/s, 14 bit sampling ADC. Three identical ADC’s were combined to increase the sampling frequen...
