SINAPSE: A lightweight deep learning framework for accurate and explainable neutron- discrimination

Thomas Carreau, Adrien Matta, Owen Syrett +10

Traditionally, neutron- discrimination in organic scintillators relies on techniques such as time-of-flight (ToF) selection and pulse-shape discrimination (PSD). However, partic…
