摘要: The linear alkylbenzene has been recently used as the solvent of liquid scintillator by several neutrino experiments. nonlinear energy response induced ionization quenching is critical in this kind detectors. An empirical model proposed Birks commonly to describe effect; however, recently, parameter $$k_{\text {B}}$$ found be particle dependent. To improve understanding proton LS A 14 MeV D–T compact neutron generator deployed which can provide recoil protons with kinetic energies ranging from 0.5 13 LS. extracted fitting data Birks’ law prediction careful examination systematic uncertainties. measurement will contribute in-depth nonlinearity
