摘要
The neutron Doppler broadening in inertial confinement fusion has been acquired from the time of flight for the neutron, from which the fuel ion temperature can be derived. An ultrafast-quenched plastic scintillation detector was used to measure the time of flight for the neutron at a low-imploded DT neutron yield (5×107-1×108) in the experiment performed on the Shenguang Ⅱ laser facility. The typical temperatures of ablating targets for indirect drive were around 2.8 keV and the uncertainties were ±30 % - ±40%. The detection efficiency of the detector for DT neutrons was calibrated at a K-400 accelerator. The time response function of the detection system was calibrated by imploded neutrons from a DT-filled capsule, which can be regarded as a S function pulsed neutron source due to its much narrower pulse width than that of the measured neutron time-of-flight spectrum.
