| Popis | Two new methods for the digital discrimination of neutrons and gamma-rays in a mixed radiation field are presented. There are many methods available which take advantage of time-domain pulse shape discrimination of these two signals. However, there are no methods based on frequency-domain characteristics of them, in particular using discrete Fourier transform (DFT). Applying DFT, we can distinguish between these radiations much better. Combining time and frequency domain PSDs, we can further increase the discrimination quality while improving computation time to be applicable for field measurements. |
