Is Auger-free luminescence present in CeF3?

It is well known that Auger-free luminescence (AFL) is observable when the condition E_g>E_VC is satisfied, where E_g is the band-gap energy between the lowest unoccupied band and the highest occupied band and E_VC the energy difference between the top of the highest occupied band and the top of the next lower occupied band. From measurements of reflection and X-ray photoelectron spectra, CeF₃ is demonstrated to really satisfy this condition. No evidence for AFL is found, nevertheless. The absence of AFL in CeF₃ is related to a characteristic nature of its highest and next lower occupied bands, which are quite different from those of previously studied AFL-materials.

Simulation of large-scale fast neutron liquid scintillation detector

Neutron background measurement is always very important for dark matter detection due to almost the same effect for the recoiled nucleus scattered off by the incident neutron and dark matter particle. For deep under-ground experiments, the flux of neutron background is so low that large-scale detection is usually necessary. In this paper, by using Geant4, the relationship between detection efficiency and volume is investigated, meanwhile, two geometrical schemes for this detection including a single large-sized detector and arrayed multi-detector are compared under the condition of the same volume. The geometrical parameters of detectors are filtrated and detection efficiencies obtained under the similar background condition of China Jingping Underground Laboratory (CJPL). The results show that for a large-scale Gd-doped liquid scintillation detector, the detection efficiency increases with the size of detector at the beginning and then trends toward a constant. Under the condition of the same length and cross section, the arrayed multi-detector has almost similar detection performance as the single large-sized detector, while too much detector number could cause degeneration of detection performance. Considering engineering factors, such as testing, assembling and production, the 4 × 4 arrayed detector scheme is flexible and more suitable. Furthermore, the conditions for using fast and slow signal coincidence detection and the detectable lower limit of neutron energy are evaluated by simulating the light process.

Application of artificial neural networks for unfolding neutron spectra by using a scintillation detector

A set of monoenergetic detector response functions in the energy range from 0.25 MeV to 16 MeV with an energy interval of 0.25 MeV are generated by the Monte Carlo code O5S in the training phase of the unfolding process.

Unfolding the fast neutron spectra of a BC501A liquid scintillation detector using GRAVEL method

Accurate knowledge of the neutron energy spectra is useful in basic research and applications. The overall procedure of measuring and unfolding the fast neutron energy spectra with BC501A liquid scintillation detector is described. The recoil proton spectrum of 241Am-Be neutrons was obtained experimentally. With the NRESP7 code, the response matrix of detector was simulated. Combining the recoil proton spectrum and response matrix, the unfolding of neutron spectra was performed by GRAVEL iterative algorithm. A MatLab program based on the GRAVEL method was developed. The continuous neutron spectrum of ²⁴¹Am-Be source and monoenergetic neutron spectrum of D-T source have been unfolded successfully and are in good agreement with their standard reference spectra. The unfolded ²⁴¹Am-Be spectrum are more accurate than the spectra unfolded by artificial neural networks in recent years.     

Theory of the field-controlled scintillation detector

It is shown theoretically that application of an external electromagnetic field with specially selected frequencies in a dielectric containing impurity atoms allows a scintillation process of emission from impurity atoms to be activated which does not involve phonons. The process is similar to that in a conventional scintillator except that the field is completely controlled. The behavior of the emission process can change radically as the amplitude and frequency of the external field are varied, thus providing a means for wide-range control of such a “field scintillator.” Zh. éksp.
