Pulse shape discriminating scintillator materials in many cases allow the user to identify two
basic kinds of pulses arising from two kinds of particles: neutrons and gammas, respectively …

The issue of pulse pile-up is frequently encountered in nuclear experiments involving high
counting rates, which will distort the pulse shapes and the energy spectra. A digital method …

Three algorithms for discriminating between fast neutrons, thermal neutrons and gamma
rays in a 6 Li loaded plastic scintillator have been compared. Following a literature review of …

The distribution of neutrons and gamma-rays in mixed fields is a main interest in pulse
shape discrimination (PSD) studies, and becomes more significant when it involves …

We developed two neural-network (NN)-based algorithms (fully-connected neural network
(Fc-NN) and recurrent neural network (RNN)) to perform pulse shape discrimination (PSD) …

Pulse shape discrimination, to distinguish between neutrons and gamma rays, is a very
important classification task in thermonuclear fusion. Gaussian Mixture Models and …

Pulse shape discrimination (PSD) is required for many radioactive particle monitoring
applications. Classical PSD methods commonly struggle at high event rates in the presence …

A hybrid pulse shape discrimination (PSD) method is presented that combines a charge-
integration PSD method with a reference-pulses PSD method. The reference-pulses PSD …

The importance of fast neutron detection for nuclear safeguards purposes has increased
due to its potential advantages such as reasonable cost and higher precision for larger …

Pulse shape discrimination (PSD) in scintillators is useful to distinguish between signals
from neutrons and gamma rays. A standard algorithm is to divide the integral of the tail end …
