Characterization of a NE-213 liquid scintillator for neutron flux measurement at JET

F. Binda

Abstract

The measurment of the total neutron rate from a nuclear fusion reactor is very important in order to calculate the power produced in a plasma. An improvement of a method currently in use at JET will involve the installation of an organic liquid scintillator NE-213 of 1 cm3 of volume combined with a digital acquisition card. In this project a first stage of the characterization of the digitizer and of the detector has been performed.
