Proton discrimination in CLYC for fast neutron spectroscopy

J. A. Brown, B. L. Goldblum, J. M. Gordon +3

The Cs${}_2$LiYCl${}_6$:Ce (CLYC) elpasolite scintillator is known for its response to fast and thermal neutrons along with good $\gamma$-ray energy resolution. While the ${}^{35}$Cl($n,p$) r…
