Abstract
RPC neutron sensitivity has been studied during two tests done with different neutrons energies. In the first test, neutrons from spontaneous fission events of 252Cf were used (average energy 2MeV); while in the second test neutrons were produced using a 50MeV deuteron beam on a 1cm thick beryllium target (average energy 20MeV). Preliminary results show that the neutron sensitivity in double gap mode is (0.52±0.03)×10−3 at about 2MeV and (5.3±0.5)×10−3 at about 20MeV.
