Abstract
- The aim of this work is to provide the characteristics of MPPC as a part of neutron detector based on scintillators with n/γ discrimination capabilities. Measurements presented in the work cover: characterization of n/γ discrimination properties by means of Figure of Merit (FOM); comparison of scintillation light pulse shape measured with MPPC and PMT (rise time and fall time) and its influence on the ZC method; estimation of the number of photoelectrons per energy unit (phe/MeV) done by Bartolaccini method.
