Investigation of Compact Liquid Organic Scintillators for Neutron Spectrum Measurements in Tokamaks

Investigation of Compact Liquid Organic Scintillators for Neutron Spectrum Measurements in Tokamaks Lanzrath, Andrew Thomas Neutron diagnostics play a key role in both magnetic confinement and inertial confinement fusion platforms and will be increasingly more important as those systems continue to improve with more devices achieving burning plasma performance. Many fuel cycles, such as deuterium-tritium, produce neutrons as a reaction product. Since neutrons are electrically charge-neutral, the
