Bj. Ye et al., PARTICLE IDENTIFICATION IN THE MEASUREMENT OF DIFFERENTIAL (N,X) CROSS-SECTIONS, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 398(2-3), 1997, pp. 224-228
An electronics system for five-parameter data collection was used for
measuring double-differential (n,x) cross sections in a multitelescope
system. The charged particles have been identified by using energy lo
ss Delta E spectrum, pulse-shape discrimination (PSD) spectrum, and th
eir combination E-Delta E, E-PSD and Delta E-PSD spectra. Three two-di
mensional spectra are combined to identify proton and alpha particles
ill the experiment of measuring double-differential Ni-nat(n,x) cross
sections. Excellent particle identification has been obtained.
