  • Abstract
    Measurements have been performed with a 2.85 MeV mono-energetic neutron beam of relative scintillation efficiency and pulse-shape for nuclear and electron recoils in NaI(Tl) and CaF2(Eu). Scintillation efficiencies in NaI(Tl) relative to 60 keV gamma events were found to be 27.5±1.8% for Na recoils (recoil energy Erec>4 keV) and 8.6±0.7% for I recoils (Erec>10 keV). Relative scintillation efficiencies in CaF2(Eu) for Ca and F recoils show some evidence for a fall with energy (17% to 8% for F) for 10 keV
