摘要

为了将这种探测器的性能与市售的/sup 3/He计数器进行比较,我们构建了一个基于闪烁体条、波长移位棒和光电倍增管的简单中子计数器。对每吸收中子的光子数的计算表明,在明亮的/sup 6/Li/sup 158/Gd(/sup 11/BO/sub 3/)/sub 3/闪烁体中,光照水平应足以进行脉冲高度判别。这已经被实验证明了。在飞行时间实验中,用/sup 3/He比例计数器记录了该闪烁中子计数器的性能。

Detection properties of a neutron counter based on scintillator, wavelength shifter, and photomultiplier
A simple neutron counter based on a scintillator strip, a wavelength shifter rod, and a photomultiplier was constructed in order to compare the properties of such a detector to a commercially available /sup 3/He counter. A calculation of the number of photons per absorbed neutron showed that with the bright /sup 6/Li/sup 158/Gd(/sup 11/BO/sub 3/)/sub 3/ scintillator, light levels should he sufficient to perform pulse height discrimination. This has been experimentally demonstrated. Furthermore, the performance of this scintillation neutron counter has been measured in time-of-flight experiments where simultaneously, the neutron spectra were recorded with a /sup 3/He proportional counter.
