Test of the rejection algorithm with GEANT4 One emitted neutron - 2 detectors hit Only 15% of the crosstalk events remain
With and without crosstalk for >40° (nuclear break-up) 10 < En < 30 MeV with crosstalk without crosstalk PRELIMINARY Counts for rel <20° : 1 492 860 (with crosstalk) 953 203 (without crosstalk) 63% remains
35% of the events remains in the Neutron Wall after subtraction of the crosstalk pour rel<20° 10 < En < 30 MeV degrees in the NWall Without crosstalk correction With crosstalk correction PRELIMINARY
Correlations subtracted from the cross-talk 10 < En < 30 MeV PRELIMINARY
New neutron detector characteristics • No cross-talk! (think of the best protocol to remove it) • Variable thickness (two sets of detectors) • Large angular coverage (nuclear break-up, SPIRAL2) • Compact electronics • New materials!
