Abstract :
A systematic study of the variation of neutron detection characteristics (efficiency, pulse shape discrimination) and the intrinsic time resolution with the active volume of the detector has been carried out with liquid scintillator (BC501A)-based neutron detectors of various dimensions designed and fabricated for this purpose. Energy-dependent neutron detection efficiency has been measured using associated particle technique and its dependence on detector dimension has been studied. The measured efficiencies have been compared with those obtained from GEANT4 simulations.
