Activation method for measuring pulse neutron yield of DT fusion reaction

In order to measure the neutron yield of DT pulse neutron source, a silver-activated detector was designed. The detector consists of neutron moderator (slowing-down materials), natural silver foils, plastic scintillators and a photomultiplier tube (PMT). The output current of the detector was recorded by a micro-current-meter. By comparing and analyzing the differences between the output current curves of the detector which were measured under the constant radiation source and that of the pulse neutron source, characterized parameters were deduced. So the yield of DT pulse neutron source could be calculated. It is proved that this new method reduces the dependence of the cross section data, and it is very simple and convenient for on-line measurement.
