  • Abstract
    Some scintillating materials offer the possibility of measuring well separated α and γ scintillation response using a single crystal. Eventually aiming at thermal neutron detection using 6Li or 10B admixture, pulse shape discrimination measurements were made on three scintillators: CsI:Tl, CsI:Na and pure BaF2 crystals. A very good α/γ discrimination was obtained using 22Na, 241Am (γ) and 244Cm (α) radioactive sources.
