Measurement of Light Output Function for SND-S1 Liquid Scintillator

  • 摘要: 采用不同能量的γ射线标准源及D-D、D-T核反应的单能中子源分别测定了新型液体闪烁体SND-S1的光输出随粒子能量的变化,采用Monte-Carlo程序Penelope模拟计算了137Cs γ射线的能量分布谱,最大康普顿电子能量的计算值和实验值相差2.7%。将实验结果与文献值作了比较,能量低于3 MeV时,符合较好;能量高于6 MeV时,略有差别。结果表明,液体闪烁体的光输出与电子能量呈线性正比关系,而与中子能量呈非线性关系。

     

    Abstract: The light output as a function of electron and proton energy for SND-S1 liquid scintillator was measured using several γ-ray sources and mono-energy neutrons from D-D, D-T nuclear reactions. The electron energy spectra of 137Cs (resolution-free) was calculated by Monte-Carlo code Penelope. It is found that the difference of the maximum Compton electron energy between calculated and measured values is 2.7%.The experiment results were compared with those of literatures. For energy below 3 MeV, results are in excellent agreement with all literatures’; Above 6 MeV, in excellent agreement with one literature’s and in moderate agreement with others’. The results indicate that the increase of the light output of liquid scintillator linearly depends on the energy of electron, but nonlinearly on the energy of proton.
