Abstract
Spectrum weighting function method with an NE213 scintillation detector has been applied to measurements of integral parameters such as tritium production rate from {sup 7}Li, in-system neutron integral flux and gamma-ray heating rate in fusion neutronics experiments. The NE213 scintillation detector can separate neutron and gamma-ray responses from each other, and those detector responses give energy information of both neutron and photon from recoil-proton and recoil-electron spectra, respectively. Connecting these energy responses with the energy responses of the nuclear parameters of interest such as {sup 7}Li(n,n{prime}{alpha}){sup 3}T reaction cross section, step function response of neutron energy and mass energy absorption coefficiency of gamma-ray, the corresponding nuclear parameters are obtained indirectly. The conversion method from the raw response of the detector is introduced by a spectrum weighting function.
