Abstract:
miniBELEN is a modular and transportable neutron moderated counter with a nearly flat neutron detection efficiency up to 10 MeV. Modularity implies that the moderator can be reassembled in different ways in order to obtain different types of response. The detector has been developed in the context of the Measurement of Alpha Neutron Yields (MANY) collaboration, which is a scientific effort aiming to carry out measurements of (textlessitextgreater𝛼, 𝑛textlessi/textgreater) production yields, reaction cross-sections and neutron energy spectra. In this work we present and discuss several configurations of the miniBELEN detector. The experimental validation of the efficiency calculations using textlesssuptextgreater252textlesssup/textgreaterCf sources and the measurement of the textlesssuptextgreater27textlesssup/textgreaterAl(textlessitextgreater𝛼, 𝑛textlessi/textgreater) textlesssuptextgreater30textlesssup/textgreaterP reaction is also presented.
