Abstract
The response characteristics of lithium glass scintillators to electron excitation have been determined for a range of electron energies, lithium concentrations and lithium enrichments. The characteristics determined were the absolute scintillation efficiency and intrinsic resolution. These measurements form part of a study on the possible use of such glasses for the determination of the tritium breeding in fusion reactor blanket experiments. The measurements were undertaken to investigate the effects of the gamma background on the signals arising from the tritium production reactions induced within the glass scintillators. Criteria for the selection of glasses most suitable for tritium breeding are discussed in terms of their measured characteristics.
