Fast neutron inelastic scattering at the nELBE facility<br />

nELBE – double ToF detector setup<br />

BaF 2 array for <strong>gamma</strong> <strong>detection</strong><br />

(16 crystals, 40 cm, Ø 5.3 cm)<br />

neutron beam<br />

5 plastic scintillators<br />

for neutron <strong>detection</strong><br />

(1 m, 11 x 42 mm2 • EJ-200 plastic scintillator 1 m x 11 mm x 42 mm<br />

• double sided readout � reduce trigger due to dark current<br />

• active high voltage dividers � more stable due to reduced heat production<br />

• high gain photomultiplier + threshold just below single electron peak<br />

� neutron <strong>detection</strong> threshold approx. 20 keV<br />

• surrounded by 1 cm Pb shielding to reduce background<br />

)<br />

rate<br />

sample: nat Fe (99.8%) � 91.754% 56 Fe<br />

mass: 19.82 g � 18.15 g 56 Fe
