This work reports the production and characterization of lithium-loaded liquid scintillator
(LiLS) for the Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment (PROSPECT). Fifty …

Many experiments in particle physics, in particular in the field of neutrino searches, rely on
organic liquid scintillators as target and detection material. The size of these detectors was …

Oak Ridge National Laboratory is developing a portable, pixelated fast-neutron imaging
panel for associated particle imaging (API). The panel consists of new and commercially …

A portable neutron spectrometer, nSpec, has been developed for passive interrogation of
fast neutrons (> 1 MeV) from neutron sources. The design of the system includes four EJ-301 …

Plastic scintillators based on thermoplastics, such as polystyrene and poly (vinyl
toluene)(PVT), are capable of neutron and γ radiation detection via pulse shape …

Liquid organic scintillators are important materials for measurements of neutron radiation.
This work aims to develop and optimize the composition of liquid organic scintillators so they …

Abstract The Backward Angle Neutron Detector (BAND) of CLAS12 detects neutrons emitted
at backward angles of 155° to 175°, with momenta between 200 and 600 MeV/c 0. It is …

Radiation from gamma-ray emitting radionuclides poses significant health risks due to its
high penetrating power. Currently, no technique offers effective shielding against it …

We measure the distribution of energy deposited in a 40× 88 mm plastic scintillator by e+ e−
pair production of 4.44 MeV γ-rays. We observe the double-escape peak of 3.42 MeV from …

Liquid organic scintillators are important devices for measurements of neutron radiation.
Currently, large-scale liquid organic scintillators have capabilities of detecting neutrons, but …
