Also, we simulate the lethargy spectrum of CSNS outside the beam dump. Traditional BF3 tube is replaced by the 3He tube, a layer of 0.6 cm lead is added outside the boron doped plastic attenuator and a sphere configuration is adopted. The simulation result shows that its response is exactly fit to H＊（10） in the neutron energies between 10 keV and approximately 1 GeV, although the monitor slightly underestimates H＊（10） in the energy range from thermal energy to about 10 keV. According to the characteristics of the CSNS, this modified counter increases the neutron energy response by 30% compared with the traditional monitors, and it can be applied in other kinds of stray field rich of high eeergy neutrons.展开更多
