Application of a BC501A Liquid Scintillation Detector with a Gain Stabilization System on the EAST Tokamak

【摘要】 A 2"×2"BC501A liquid scintillation detector with a gain stabilization system is developed and applied to neutron andγ-ray measurement on the EAST tokamak.Energy calibration of a liquid scintillator using a fast coincidence method is presented and compared with the Monte Carlo simulation.Determination of the proton light output function of the BC501A is presented.Results from dedicated experiments with an Am-Be neutron source,γsource and quasi-monoenergetic neutron beams,and from measurements on EAST tokamak are presented and discussed.更多还原
