Characterization of deuterated stilbene: an organic scintillator for neutron spectroscopy
Submission original under an indefinite embargo labeled 'Open Access'. The submission was exported from vireo on 2022-04-06 without embargo terms

Characterization of water-based liquid scintillator response to gammas and neutrons at varying scintillator-surfactant concentrations
… experiments require many tons of bulk liquid organic scintillator to take spectroscopic data of these energetic particles. However, material and chemical concerns make such experiments both challenging and costly. In their work, Winn and Raftery prepose a method of water-based scintillator as …

Exclusive Photodisintegration of 3He
… Neutrons were detected in arrays of liquid organic scintillator cells. Data for neutron-proton (np) coincidences were acquired in configurations which selectively include or exclude the np final state interaction. Measurements of proton-proton (pp) coincidences along the same kinematic locus …

The interaction of fast neutrons with shielding and fusion blanket materials
… neutron spectra measured were performed by an organic scintillator using a pulse shape discrimination technique based on a charge comparison method to reject the gamma rays counts. A computer programme was used to analyse the experimental data by the differentiation unfolding method. The 14.1 …

Analysis of the optical coupling of wavelength-shifting fibers to organic liquid scintillator filled fluoropolymer tubes for industrial and nuclear security applications
… steam chamber and minimize costs. The organic liquid scintillator based detection modules also detect fast neutrons. During the initial characterization of an unidentified radioactive source, it is important to have the capability to determine if special nuclear material (SNM) is …

Machine-learning models and shielding materials for radiation protection of patients and personnel in ion therapy
… investigates the feasibility of using a novel organic scintillator, deuterated stilbene (stilbene-d12), capable of detecting and discriminating both gamma rays and neutrons to perform real-time range verification. After thorough experimental characterization of the stilbene-d12 light-output …

Algorithms for nuclear data analysis applied to safety and materials
… and optimized a PALS experimental setup using organic scintillators and digital electronics. We have designed a digital filter to accurately recover the pulse shape and implemented a constant-fraction discrimination (CFD) timing algorithm to calculate the pulse arrival time. We achieved an …
