Digital spectrometer for prompt fission neutron spectrum measurements

This paper presents a digital neutron spectrometer based on simultaneous digitizing of the signals from the fission chamber and a scintillation detector. The scintillation detector is based on stilbene crystal. The intrinsic detection efficiency of the used stilbene crystal and the energy dependence...
