Tagging fast neutrons from an 241Am/9Be source
arXiv:1405.2686 · doi:10.1016/j.apradiso.2015.01.003
Abstract
We report on an investigation of the fast-neutron spectrum emitted by 241Am/9Be. Well-understood shielding, coincidence, and time-of-flight measurement techniques are employed to produce a continuous, polychromatic, energy-tagged neutron beam.
