Abstract

An intense neutron beam produced via 7 Li(p, n) 7 Be reaction on a newly developed high-power liquid Lithium target (LiLiT) is available at SARAF (Soreq Applied Research Accelerator Facility) facility, Israel. Its spectrum was determined using the CYSP (CYlindrical SPectrometer), a new directional neutron spectrometer which incorporates the functionality of the Bonner spheres in a single cylindrical moderator. The advantages of this spectrometer are that the neutron spectrum is derived in only one exposure, and that its directional response is not affected by room- and air-scattered neutrons. The data from the CYSP spectrometer were analysed using the FRUIT unfolding code.
