Boron Doped Plastic Scintillator Efficiency
ORAL
Abstract
This talk will describe the progress made in an interdisciplinary development project aimed at cost-effective, neutron sensitive, plastic scintillator. Colorado School of Mines researchers with backgrounds in Physics, Chemistry, and Chemical Engineering have worked on the incorporation of $^{10}$B in plastics through extrusion. First results on transparent samples using fluorescent spectroscopy and beta excitation will be presented.
