We would like to present here with the eyes of the chemist the most recent developments of
plastic scintillators (PS) for neutron detection. This review covers the period from 2000 to …

Recent developments of plastic scintillators are reviewed, from 2000 to March 2014,
distributed in two different chapters. First chapter deals with the chemical modifications of the …

This article describes a new concept of developing a composite plastic scintillator (PS) with
better light out and detection efficiency of ionizing radiations by loading high Z eff …

An exothermic neutron capture reaction can be used to uniquely identify neutrons in particle
detectors. With the use of a capture-gated coincidence technique, the sequence of scatter …

One class of neutron detectors for illicit nuclear materials are capture‐gated detectors, which
use organic scintillators to slow neutrons while emitting fluorescent light and elements that …

Capture-gated detectors have attracted the attention of several researchers because of their
promise for neutron spectroscopy in mixed neutron-gamma-ray fields. Examples are the …

(57) ABSTRACT A neutron spectrometer that is more accurate, faster, and more-portable
than conventional spectrometers includes an organic Scintillator responsive to neutrons and …

Plastic scintillators (PS) loaded with neutron sensitive powders to detect special nuclear
material without degrading the light yield is well sought. This work reports the synthesis of …
