Abstract
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.
