Recent results of spectrum unfolding of the CATRiNA detectors
ORAL
Abstract
The CATRiNA deuterated neutron detector array at FSU has been expanded to include 16 additional EJ315 detectors, making it a powerful and sensitive neutron detector array. Neutron energies can be extracted using their pulse-height spectrum through a method known as spectrum unfolding. Characterization of the array was performed at the Edwards Accelerator Laboratory at Ohio University via reactions $^{9}$Be(d,n) and $^{27}$Al(d,n). Extraction of spectroscopic information from the $^{12}$C(d,n) reaction was also performed. In this work, results of these experiments and upgrades to the spectrum unfolding algorithm will be presented.
