In this work, we report the synthesis and inclusion of rationally designed organotin compounds in polystyrene matrices as a route towards plastic scintillators capable of gamma-ray spectroscopy. Tin loading ratios of up to 15% w/w have been incorpora

Verification of declared ${\rm UF}_6$ enrichment and mass in storage cylinders is of great interest in nuclear material nonproliferation. Nondestructive assay (NDA) techniques are commonly used for safeguards inspections to ensure accountancy of decl

Organic-based scintillators are indispensable materials for radiation detection owing to their high sensitivity to fast neutrons, low cost, and tailorable properties. There has been a recent resurgence of interest in organic scintillators due to exci

An 8 × 8 pixellated Nal(Tl) detector (1.7 cm × 1.7 cm × 1.0 cm) coupled to a multi anode PMT read out system was modeled to study the impact of light yield nonproportionality due to multiple photon scatterings and assess the contribution of delta

The GEANT4 Monte Carlo simulation tool was used to model a prototype 14 MeV neutron fiber detector. Detail features of the prototype were implemented in the modeling to assess the directionality and detector performance. The prototype was built using

We have developed a directional detector for 14 MeV neutrons. The detector consists of an 8×8 array of plastic scintillating fibers coupled to a multi-anode photomultiplier tube. Protons in the fibers are scattered by incident neutrons and are detec

Currently we are investigating the inclusion of organotin compounds in new polystyrene scintillator materials to improve full gamma-ray energy sensitivity. Accurate calibration of the relative light yield from the newly developed scintillators is cru
